 I'm reading Richard Reeves' history of Reagan's presidency and am still trying to catch up on the back issues of Harpers and Atlantic Monthly that are piling up at my bedside. I just checked and I'm on the August 2006 Harpers and the December 2006 Atlantic Monthly. I'm also reading a biography of Rutherford B. Hayes published in the 1950s with another on deck published in the 1990s.

At the bedside but not being read are a biography of Richard Hofstadter, a couple of Civil War books and various and sundry magazines that I picked up because of an article I wanted to read and haven't gotten around to yet. By the way, my personal best on a magazine was a copy of The New Yorker that was three years old before I finally read it. You know, some of the articles were still timely!

Oh, and on a non-book reading note I'm watching "Rumpole of the Bailey" on DVD. Love that Horace Rumpole! Better go. "She Who Must Be Obeyed" wants help with the trash.

Best
