Books:
---------------
* well I'm half way through CS Forrester's Horatio Hornblower series
which is fictionalized history about early 1800s life in the British
Navy.  I've known about these books for years but always thought
they'd be dull - I was wrong - they're awesome.

* Along that same genre is WEB Griffin's books around WWII (any of
them) which are all great IMO

* And more in that space is Sen. Webb's book 'The Emperor's General'
about MacArthur's conquest of the orient his running of Japan
immediately following VJ Day.  It's fantastic.  For fictionalized
history it's probably one of the best books I've read.

* In the thriller category I'm working through Robin Cook's medical
thrillers (like Coma) which are ok.

* As for what my wife calls my "men's trash" books I read James
Rollins, Douglas Preston, or Matthew Reilly

Music:
-------------
* right now I'm still listening to Supreme Beings of Leisure and Zero
7 which my wife calls "banana republic background music" but since I
never go there it's new to me.

* I'm also going through a Russian composer phase which prokofiev and
shastakovich as well as others.  I ain't no conn-es-oo-er, but for
some weird reason these composers tweak something for me.  Maybe it's
their dark russian brooding.  I dunno.
