I will do two multi-post book reviews in February, one starting on Monday the 5th* 6th, the other on Monday the 19th*
20th. The first deals with a certain top ten Texas-based corporation
that went ker-boom in 2001, the second with a certain executive branch's
unruly behavior during wartime -- whose monarch wanna-be poster boy for
arrested development has a cattle-free and brush-laden ranch in Texas.
And those are the only hints I'm giving you.
A clarification: I intended to do three book reviews during November and December, but I only did two -- Robert Baer's Sleeping with the Devil and Lawrence Velvel's Misfits in America.
The third book I wanted to review deals extensively with the author of
another book, but I didn't know this before I started reading. It soon
became clear that, in order to do a just review, I'd have to tackle the
referenced book as well. So I've put that particular review on hold.
Major setback, hairy project. I don't know when or if I'll get to it,
but I do know that in this case a lack of a review is better than a
half-assed one.
That's for anyone who actually remembers me saying I wanted to do three reviews.
But there will
be two reviews in February, barring a computer breakdown or a medical
emergency rendering me Internetless. You have been duly warned, senoras
and horsemen.
Til further on...

Post updated shortly after looking at the calendar. I'm just slowly
growing old, people, and my sense of time is the third thing I have
lost. The second thing I lost was my ability to remember things like
this. The first thing I lost was... gee, I forget...)
