Im reading a book called:
1.Herakles' golden apples:
It's the 1st in a trilogy that shows that ppl travelled the world in prehistoric times. Things suggest that Atlantis was North and South America. The book is full of archelogical findings and stuff from other sciences that clearly suggest these two things.
2.Who, What, Where:
Stuff about what happened in 2002. The book has come out since 1946 IIRC.
3.The bible.
4. Civ3 strategy guide:
is on the table... Guess it's a desperate attempt to improve my civ2 game. I don't play civ3 although I have it.
5. Jasher's book:
I have not finsihed it book yet. Need to download more pages from the net. It is a book that is mentioned in the bible (twice) and thus very exciting.

'Use of Weapons' by Iain M Banks
&
'Berlin: The Downfall 1945' by Antony Beevor
both quality stuff though completely different in that the former is science fiction and the latter history.

Goingonit, you should take an interest in Jasher's book. It's referred to in the OT (your bible).

As always, reading "Tao Te Ching" when have time to kill or just when I feel like it. |
Interesting, I used to read it religiously (pun), and decided to dig it up again a couple of days ago. I love that sh*t!
41. Taoism
----------
When the strong learn Tao, they practice it diligently;
When the average learn Tao, they practice it sometimes;
When the weak learn Tao, they laugh out loud;
Those who do not laugh do not learn at all.
Therefore it is said:
Who understands Tao seems foolish;
Who progresses in Tao seems to fail;
Who follows Tao seems to wander.
So the greatest force appears vulnerable;
The brightest truth appears coloured;
The richest character appears incomplete;
The strongest heart appears meek;
The most beautiful nature appears fickle;
So the square, perfected, has no corner;
Art, perfected, has no meaning;
Sex, perfected, has no climax;
Form, perfected, has no shape.
So Tao can not be sensed or known:
It transmits sensation and transcends knowledge.
Tao Te Ching (Interpolation by Peter A. Merel)
