  1. Craig Johnson: As The Crow Flies (8th Longmire novel)
  2. Weasels Ripped My Flesh. Still may have been (probably was ) an idiot.
  3. He's great on both Erena Terakubo CDs.
  4. I do too. I have this ordered.
  5. Loved the first two episodes of "Longmire." Perfect casting for the lead, and it's nice to see Lou Diamond Phillips again in what looks like a recurring role. But, I haven't seen such a taciturn sherrif since "Gunsmoke." I kept thinking of Matt Dillon. I haven't read the books, but this looks like it could be a good series. The books are good. Hope that Virgil White Buffalo shows up in the TV series.

    Used to see / hear Kevin often here in Santa Fe before he moved (?)back east.
  8. Craig Johnson: Hell Is Empty (7th in the Longmire series)
  9. One last comment & then I'm done (with this topic). Sonnymax appears to be from the Dr. Spock school of child psychologists, which may be fine for him. I hope that all of your patients are benefiting from their kids co-sleeping with them. I prefer John Rosemond. That's so you know where I'm coming from. BTW, You don't need to insult me by putting medical practice in quotes. You know nothing about me & I'd prefer to keep it that way. You've just become the 2nd member to be on my ignore list in 9 years. Life's too short. http://www.rosemond.com/
  10. I've got all of the old stuff. Can I just get the new stuff???
  11. Sheer, utter nonsense. You blame one group (psychologists), then another (parents), and then another (children with self-esteem). It's obvious you have little understanding about the different factors that influence individual and group behavior. Please stop blaming and labeling and instead read, learn, and broaden your understanding. You're being awfully defensive. Who do you blame??? Or are all 3 groups (parents, kids, psychologists) just perfect. I've read plenty in my 30+ years of medical practice. You should follow the advice in your last sentence (read, learn, etc.). Parents need to start acting like parents again & (some) psychologists need to stop with all of the encouragement of many types of permissive parenting.
  12. I don't understand what's cause and effect about those two sentences or contradictory about the approaches you've laid out. O.K. - the first sentence indicates things I believe parents do wrong. The kids with the most self esteem,for example, are often the most anti-social & entitled. The 2nd sentence indicates what parents should do, i.e say no, etc. Parents have lost control & don't set boundaries the way they should.
  13. IMHO it's the fault of a school of child psychologists who have convinced parents to be friends with their kids, boost their self esteem, encourage co-sleeping, etc.. A lot of kids don't know the meaning of "no" or "because I said so". It's a sad state of affairs. Respect appears to be out the window.
  14. What everyone else said. R.I.P.
  15. A mild "nay" from me.
  16. Longmire (from the Craig Johnson novels). I like westerns.
  17. Ordered it, but it's combined at Amazon with some other stuff that hasn't been released yet. Looking forward to receiving it.
  18. His book Son Of The Morning Star is one of the best books on Custer.
  19. When was that, JL? Maybe by that time he'd learned a lesson. I learned a fairly big one just last week, at age 70, so there's always hope. Near the end of his career, before he developed cancer & moved back to the midwest. He'd recovered from a stroke & could still play very well. I remember a discussion I had with him about Juan Tizol & Duke Ellington.
  20. William Faulkner once signed a book for Albert Einstein - From Bill, To Al Destroyed any collector value it might have had. BTW, slightly off-topic - The Prestidigitator.
  21. I'm not an insider like Larry, Chuck & Allen - BUT I spent many nights listening to Frank Morgan at The Adobe Bar at The Taos Inn when he was living in Taos. No cover charge, average local rhythm section, probably shitty pay, nice margaritas. He always played well, never berated the band & was warm to the audience. Memorable times for me. I hope he didn't scam any old ladies in Taos. The town seemed to love & respect him.
  22. Jo Nesbo: Snowman
