I'm going to read the following two books:
Animal Farm by George Orwell
1984 George Orwell
I haven't read these yet so I'm pretty excited about it!

Stranger In a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein. He was the one that wrote Super Troopers that was a serious science fiction novel that was made into a joke movie.

Been reading a ton of Ed Abbey as well. I couldn't get through "monkey wrench gang" that quick either but his non-fiction is much better and has a lot of the same ideas, "desert solitare" is good. He is totally misogynist in his fiction, hot babes come out of nowhere to bone old outdoorsmen (coincidence?)
All Derrick Jensen books, partially through "Endgame"
Carlos Casteneda "art of dreaming" -60 punk points but has been interesting, I read it before sleep and remember dreams way better and vaguely control them.
Slavoj Zizek "in defense of lost causes" modern day philospher, sometimes i loose him, sometimes he compares 9/11 to star wars

What I read is really sporadic and random. Lately though Journey to Ixlan from Carlos Castenada, Cliff notes from Paradise Lost, and a bunch of graphic novels mostly Batman.

FUCK YES! Journey to Ixlan! Now I don't feel like such a crystal toting new age freak. I recommend Tales of Power the most out of casteneda's work.
macks, i just got done reading an in depth book about NW migratory fish this afternoon. I live on a salmon stream and am anticipating them in a few months. their carcasses are hanging in the trees around here (from birds?). Been vegan a long time but am trying to forage/hunt my food now but also trying to figure out if the NW can spare the few salmon left. Its not looking good but I will probably try to grab a male, eat a few to make myself do it. I also am from Iowa and this is all new and exiting to me.

Well here's the NOAA population estimates for the Puget Sound chinook :

Might want to read up a little on the laws around there, poaching can get you landed in jail pretty easy.
