    I think I may need to go have a lie-down after just looking at the covers. And it's 2 in the afternoon here. :)

    Smail is excellent - Marshall's Warfare in the Latin East is equally good

    They were all on sale, from $1 to $2.50 at the priciest. How could I refuse? I have a couple of them in digital format since they are in the public domain, but I prefer to read and collect books.

    Lol, looks like my light reading list. Actually, mine right now is three books on captive insurance, but once I am done with those I will be back to books like yours. :)

    Captive insurance sounds like a fancy way of saying you are holding someone hostage to ensure you escape.

    Yeah, I think I'll get some of that. You never know when someone might nab you.

    You wish it was that interesting. Just something I need to explore for work as a CFO. John is right, massively boring but important.

    So what you are saying is that you, as CFO of a company, do not have a couple patsies in the basement ready to be fall guys if you make the news in a bad way? :p

    Unfortunately no. :( Good gosh, my name, address, and SSN is on so many official forms and documents its not even funny. People need to understand anyone who is a CFO nowadays literally has zero privacy of any of their personal information anymore. I have 14 dang states who want to know what I ate for dinner last night.

    I can believe that. I can see even more so now, more than ever, if I remember which industry you work in correctly.

    On sale, you say. Would you be willing to say where, if the dealer has any left, or others you failed to buy?

    Nice => sweet additions, JA (wow, those are very cool)

    ... hmmm, my selection makes me seem somewhat low-brow once again, eh?
