So have finished the book about Osama bin Laden being killed, "No Easy Day" by Mark Owen It was kind of gripping. I like his style he was open and had the right amount of secrecy. There are things to learn from the people who live and work in this community. Well worth a read. "Make it so" the interface design book is so cool. I have been away on break from work and I have watched some television (it is one of the things I do when on holiday) and the design of a get more hair on your head advert, it was as if they had read this book. or at least the opening two chapters on how to make you designs look kind of sciencey and futuristic. They did a great job of that, but I have enough hair on my head. So not sold on the product.

Do have to tell you I shall be reading more  G K Chesterton "Orthodoxy" is really really good. It pokes holes that whole "The Matrix" worldview, nice to read.  He does put together a totally superb sentence loaded with ideas. He doesn't hold back it is a joy read someone who lays into people nicely!!! I don't know who Mr McCabe is but G K, is not struck on him "I think that Mr. McCabe is a slave because he is not allowed to believe in fairies" To see where it fits in G K argument you need to find page 39 of "Orthodoxy" But it is a great sentence.

Also found two books Orson Scott Card "The Lost Gate" and my first J G Ballard book "Empire of the Sun"

And returning from being away the copy of "the out of bounds church?" by Steve Taylor was waiting in the letter box. As I write this "Streets of Fire: a rock and roll fable is playing" just love five dollar movies. Now I embrace my dyslexia, use yours and enjoy the world. Have a great day.

So bought some more books, The Oopsatoreum by Shaun Tan, anything by him is utterly brilliant. I pick his stuff up anytime I find one I don't have. The Starbucks Experience has arrived as well Like it as well then the one about the shooting of Bin Ladin. The big news for me anyway is Existence I have persevered with it. A I have just run into a great moment in the book, where the geneticist use the language of faith to describe his reason and purpose for his work. I enjoyed the words and image it made in my head.

Also bought William Gibson, Zero History I like it and I read this "She watched him trough the rear window as the taxi pulled away. Stout and bearded, he turned now in Greek Street,......" It is just odd an odd sentence.

Oh the other book is No Easy Day, Mark Owen.
