I never read the cheese story. But I did see a mini movie on it. And yeah, the guy was a heck of a marketeer. Captured a trend that is for sure. Kind of reminds me of the Fish guys. Made it into the fabric of business.
Switching gears, I offer up the following question. Anyone care to guess the book that has the character Jax in it? (Which is in no way like me, just a good name for the character).

Re: the curious incident of the dog in the night-time.
Just finished it. What an interesting and different book. Easy to read and definitely not mainstream.
Re: Gods and Generals.
In the middle. Interesting. I wonder how much of it is true. Good engrossing tale.

"Twisted" was a pretty good one Osuche.. just finished his latest "Gone" definitely another good one. I've also read Koontz's "The Husband" and Patterson's "Beach Road" all pretty good suspense reads if anyone's interetsted. Koontz's book was like seeing an Indiana Jones movie again.. I was almost tired when I finished it... non stop suspense. I'm working nights and reading has been a lot easier LOL

I just started reading the Dark Tower series for the third time... it's definitely different after the first time through.
I'm starting the Drawing of the Three. ![Smilie](images/smilies/smile.gif)
