Speaking of pistols, anyone who hasn’t read “Pistol: The Life of Pete Maravich” needs to bust ass to a Barnes and Noble. Yeah, I spend my day off with a good book , what’s it to ya?

Cool, Bob I’ll try to get a hold of Pete’s book. If you are looking for another read, check out Haruki Murakami’s “Hard-boiled Wonderland and the End of the World” have nothing to do with b-ball but it’s a very nice read, kind of weird though.

Cool, you’ll enjoy it. Just started reading Patrick Süskind’s “Perfume” seems promising too. Unfortunately I don’t have enough time to read between work, working out, getting drunk, and posting around here.

I didn’t like “perfume”. i’m intrigued by the murakami one though. what’s it about?

TAD, Benoit; As I was saying just getting started on “Perfume” but supposedly it’s about a serial killer with a distinct smelling sense. The Murakami one is kind of complex to explain briefly. But basically it’s about a guy helping a mad scientist as well as helping himself, also involving unicorns. I know it sounds weird, and it kind of is, but in a very good way. I’ve read a few Murakami’s books and this one is definitely one of the best. Can really recommend it.

What is a Rasual Butler?

Obviously it’s dumb to have the gun w/ you, but it’s insane that you have to register it in every state. If it’s registered in this country, that should cover every state. It’s not 1776 anymore. Can we all get on one damn page?

and that’s right, I AM using the “she was asking for it” defense for Rasual…

You’re right Celts Fan, this is the US’ fault, not Rusual’s…

Ladies and gentlemen, this is Chewbacca. Chewbacca is a Wookiee from the planet Kashyyyk. But Chewbacca lives on the planet Endor. Now think about it; that does not make sense!

They should let Aaron McKie go. He was never a very good shooter anyway.

Calling all writers, somebody needs to write a book about the personal experiences of athletes. The events that led to the decision of packing a burner. Hopefully it will have more depth than the chickenhead with her boyfriend in the club scenario.

Rasual needs to keep it in his holster.

This dude has major emotional issues. If he manages to get in the news anymore from this incident I’m sure much of his wackadoodle disturbia will come to light.
