OT: Hey, Paul, The book of southern food and the craps book would seem to go hand in hand for a gambling mecca that I frequent - Biloxi, Mississippi! If there are any good dining ideas in that area, pass them along - and, good luck at craps!

Paul: Books 'Wizards of Wall Street' by Kazanjian consists of very well done interviews with 18 money managers including Bill Miller of Legg Mason. Enjoyable, insightful read. I got it at the library and liked it well enough to buy a copy. I read Whitman's like you do - bit of a slog, that one, but with worthwhile insights. Cialdini is very interesting for social psychology perspective - read it 15 years ago. "Flow" When you read that think of video games...what he's writing about is behind them. "Market Magic" has to be the worst written book on technical analysis I ever picked up - fortunately I got it used - cheap. Anything by John Murphy is pretty good choice in that area - very clearly written. I thought the Gorilla Game was great and bought, but haven't yet read, Moores latest, "LIVING ON THE FAULT LINE" about managing in internet era. "Blown to Bits" gives good perspective on impact of the net - good read. So far I have 3 versions of Security Analysis: 1934, 1962 and 1988 [sort of] and haven't read any of them beyond and occasional reference. Bob
