Currently playing Lego Star Wars 2 on the Xbox 360. I finished up Call of the Mall yesterday and am reading The Wisdom of Crowds by James Surowiecki

I am now wrapping up Call of the Mall: The Geography of Shopping by Paco Underhill. The book dissects a trip to the mall, what techniques are used to lure shoppers now, and what could be improved. An OK read; he makes several good points, but not the fact-packed book I was hoping for. I'm looking mostly for books about how I'm being influenced by corporations and "others" in general. I started reading it around the beginning of March and am finishing up today. Now on to something else...

I started regularly reading again and figured I'd kick it off with book I've had on my bookshelf for a long time, but never got a chance to read: George Orwell's 1984. I finished it a couple of weeks back and found it interesting; well worth the title "Classic".

I've been away a little while, mostly to focus on other things in life. I'm back for a bit, not sure for how long though. Thanks to everyone who dropped me a PM while I was gone and sorry for not responding earlier.

From the page: "'Prince' Joe Eboh contacts me with a classic 419 opening letter. I decide to make him jump through a few hoops before I'm prepared to agree to his proposition, and the results are amusing AND profitable, to the tune of $80 $49 DHL shipping, so our scammer is down a whopping total of $129"
