come on over and browse my bookshelf. i will have to play librarian and record what you borrow because i always forget who has what. was freakonomics good?

i really liked it and found it interesting the way economics principles could be applied to very interesting sociology type concepts. however, in his book he sort of decribes the way people can use statistics to support their own ideas and theories. so when he offers up staticstics to support his own theories you find yourself questioning his statistics too. but it was still fascinating.

bascially, i'm looking for a book that will keep my lazy ass on the treadmill for 30 minutes at a time. :) i'll have to give you a call as i haven't seen you and the little lord in a while.
