Tattooed Man Butt is Doing Crystal Meth with Vince Lombardi and Watching Avatar
NonFiction
Inside the Tattoo Circus: a journey through the modern world of tattoos by Kristian Misser. Tons of color photos illustrating the work of current artists, styles, themes, and more. The lady on the cover looks like author Christa Faust. I emailed Faust and told her that. I'm probably on her ignore list now.
Open: an autobiography by Andre Agassi and [unnamed ghost writer]. Champion tennis player Agassi had a really, really crappy father and hates tennis. So he started doing crystal meth and married a German.
That First Season: how Vince Lombardi took the worst team in the NFL and set it on the path to glory by John Eisenberg. This is Wisconsin, I am required to buy it. You know who else should buy this? The Buffalo Bills.
Avatar: a field guide to Pandora by Maria Wilhelm and Dirk Mathison. "A confidential report on the biological and social history of Pandora." This movie came from a comic book? A video game?
Super Freakonimcs: global cooling, patriotic prostitutes and why suicide bombers should buy life insurance by Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner. One of those hippies over at Madison Public wrote about this book and openly baited me in the blog title. Sometimes those hippies can be smart, because it worked.
What the Dog Saw: and other adventures by Malcolm Gladwell. Science or something.
Too Big to Fail: the inside story of how Wall Street and Washington fought to save the financial system - and themselves by Andrew Ross Sorkin. Take your blood pressure medication before you start reading.
Little Stevens Underground Garage Update
Little Steven Loves Locksley. Van Zandt likes to play songs by Locksley. I only mention this because Locksley started out in Madison.
Fiction
Trial by Fire by J.A. Jance. Nun helps out hospital patient with amnesia. Patient's would be killer puts nun in his sights.
U is for Undertow by Sue Grafton. Add ingredients, shake, bake, let it cool.
Marion Zimmer Bradley's Sword of Avalon by Diana L. Paxson. Swords and stuff.
Southern Lights by Danielle Steel.

DVD
Funny People starring Eric Bana. Bana started as a stand-up comedian in Australia until he played the lead in Chopper. This movie has something to do with a dying comedian.

My Sister's Keeper with Cameron Diaz, Alec Baldwin. Organ harvesting.

Spy Kids 2 starring blahblahblah. The last copy broke.
