I haven't been to the library in years, but today I'm going to go and get a library card. Mainly because of a book my buddy Jeff, (JalanRuss) recommended to me a few months ago, that sounded like something that would be right up my ally. I will probably be getting a few books actually, so I was just hoping some of you might have some suggestions for me. I'd definitely appreciate it. Can't say that I'll get them all, because I don't know how many responses I'll get, but I will certainly try to get to all of them in due time. No guarantees though. Iv'e broken way too many promises in the past, and don't want to insult people by doing that anymore. But I will certainly get some, it would be very much appreciated.

Some of my favorite topics are Freemasonry, The Elks Club, (which I use to go to as a young lad with my bro and my Opa around Christmas, and Easter." Also interested in The Illuminati, (I'm vehementelly against it truthfully.) All secret societies, current events in politics, world religion, and of course sports, among many others. You don't have to mention a book with these topics, but I thought it would be helpful to share some of my favorite interests. Thanks in advance everyone! Have a great one, ya'll hear?? lol

The Illuminatus! Trilogy- Robert Shea, and Robert Anton Wilson

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Illuminatus!_Trilogy It's a satirical look at the Illuminati, can be hard to get into at first because it jumps from 1st person to 3rd. But fun once you get going.

Awesome. Thanks so much for sharing that. Not sure if it's anti, or pro illuminati, but it makes no difference. I actually enjoy hearing the other side of things, and oftentimes after being fair, I even change many of my views. Thanks again for the recommendation. Appreciate it.

I went to the library yesterday. The library card was free, unfortunately though, I had to have an ID. Mine has expired, so I'm going to have to wait awhile before I can get a new ID card which is $35.00. Oh well, atleast I have something to look forward to.
