Every now and then I look at my personal Library and feel a pang of guilt about all the books that I own and haven't had the opportunity to read. Part of the reason I haven't read them is I waste my time checking facebook every five minutes to see if anybody commented on my posts or to creep on somebody I haven't talked to in a long time. But after the guilt and remorse subside I leaf through magazines or book reviews and drool over a dozen or more books. Below you will find a list of books along with their prices. If any of you ever want to buy me a gift to say how much I love you, you can get me one of these books!

He's back.........
February 6th. Many important events in history have transpired on this 41st day of the year according to the Gregorian Calendar. In 1763, The French and Indian War (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_and_Indian_War) was formally ended with the signing of The 1763 Treaty of Paris. In 2003, Ron Ziegler (Press Secretary to Pres. Nixon) died. And in 2010, Jamie Boehmer last updated his blog....
BUT NOW HE'S BACK BETTER THAN EVER! With all new ideas, new topics for conversation, and a brand new Aspire One Netbook from Acer! That's right ladies and gentleman, my dear wife purchased this brand new Netbook for my birthday which isn't until April 28th (in case you last minute gift givers haven't purchased your gift yet, you have until Wednesday!) I can now blog from my own Netbook while Hannah sits contently on her Apple laptop and places facebook games.
But now we must get to the question that is burning on all of your hearts... "What have you been doing this whole time?" Fear not my fellow readers... fear not! I have not been wasting my time, I have been out saving the world(OK, so the Mass Effect Universe doesn't count in real life, but I did beat both games in a span of three weeks)! I have also been reading selections from my Norton Anthology to Western Literature. I have read selections from Ovid, Aeneid, Augustine's Confessions, The Koran, 1001 Nights, The Divine Comedy (mostly Dante's Inferno) The Prince, and recently finished reading a how to manual for Courtly manners in the 16th century.
My historical pursuits are also coming along quite nicely. I recently finished a paper on John Dickinson and how the political philosophy of Quaker Constitutionalism impacted his actions in the American Revolution!
I hope to post soon, I know I promised a series on the Signers of the Declaration of Independence, starting with George Read from Delaware.
I'll leave you with a quote from Thomas Jefferson to stew on:
An honest man can feel no pleasure in the exercise of power over his fellow citizen.
