A Victory For Humanity
A book about disabled athletes in the Achilles Track Club that compete in the NYC Marathon. So far, it is pretty good.
I just finished reading:
[url=http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1578515823/qid=1060875078/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/002-7955121-5725608?v=glance&s=books]
Geeks and Geezers[/url]
A leadership book that compares traits of leaders in two different age groups, those older than 70 and those younger than 30.
[url=http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0399148035/qid=1060875115/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/002-7955121-5725608?v=glance&s=books]
No Finish Line by Marla Runyan[/url]
Great book about a world class runner that is legally blind. Marla kicks butt. Riff Raffers would really like this book.

'A line in the sand: The Alamo in Blood and Memory'
but not by choice, its part of this Texas based gen-ed brainwashing I'm undergoing. 
I've got a lot of other books at home I'd much rather read...

"Willie's Bar And Grill" by Rob Hirst. The last tour of North America by Midnight Oil (which started shortly after 9/11) leading up to the band's break-up. Part travelogue, part rock diary, very entertaining, funny, and (in its own way) touching. (Hirst was the Oil's drummer)
