That is awesome, all the more reason to go out and buy another copy.  Shoot, maybe even buy two!

On a side note about the Foxcatcher movie, I have had it on a flash drive for about a month now.  I still haven't watched it.  Maybe this weekend, but I am still not sure.

Interesting to hear.  Is it a good read for you?

I'm not having a hard time putting it down... It is ok, but not great by any means.

I would say the opposite, I picked it up only 3 times before I finished it.  I thought it was a great read!

I should probably read it.  How many pages?  How large is the print?  Are there a lot of pictures?  Does it come in a comic strip format?  Just trying to figure out if I could handle the challenge.   ;)   Seriously, it does sound interesting, if just from a historical perspective.

Some days it's hardly worth chewing through the restraints!

The book is a little over 300 pages.  Maybe 6-10 pages of pictures.  You won't regret the time you spend reading it.

Okay, I'm sold...  even if there isn't a comic book version.   ;D
