I have the Xbox DVD set too.
I always admit when I'm in the wrong.
I want your books not your whining. ::)

If you've never read Watchmen, you've got time before the movie comes out. Well worth it!
Harlan Ellison is great, though not as easy to find.
"Make Love the Bruce Campbell Way" if you need an entertaining read.

Yes I read that book. I was disappointed as it was rushed towards the end. The Gunslinger thing was pants too, so I figured they went through the motions. It started good....
Bruce Campbell was in the Quick In the Dead, but ended up on the cutting room floor. He is ace!

The Selfish Gene - Richard Dawkins
The Fifth Miracle - Paul Davies
Naked Ape to Superspecies - David Suzuki

Yep I like Stephen Hawking even though he sounds like a speak and spell.
How about the Jaguar Mask?
Keep em coming.

I tried to make a varied list. I read pretty fast so I like books with some weight, tried to put some lighter stuff in there as well.
1. J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings (I know, it's actually 3 books but anyway, read the omnibus)
2. Frank Herbert, Dune
3. Brian Green, The Elegant Universe
4. Tom Clancy, Rainbow Six
5. David Eddings, The Belgariad (again an omnibus)
6. Li Zhi Sui, The Private Life of Chairman Mao
7. Edward Gibbon, The decline and fall of the Roman empire (again cheating, read the omnibus)
8. Richard Dawkins, The God Delusion
9. William L. Shirer, Rise and Fall of the Third Reich
10. Mario Puzo, The Godfather
Ugh, you like Battlefield Earth? I read it (I even have it in my collection) but the fact that it was written by some delusional idiot (who founded Scientology) spoils my mood.
ideft:
The hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy(all the volumes) - Douglas Adam
The Tropic of Cancer - Henry Miller
Slaughterhouse Five - Kurt Vonnegut
Fahrenheit 451 - Ray Bradbury
