    Today i picked up a copy of "My Life" by Bill Clinton. I got it from Barbara's Book store down town Chicago. I also received a ticket for a guarenteed signing by Clinton him self. I think this is really cool! It was worth the 2 hour wait! On July 1st i get to camp overnight at the store to get to the front. It is going to awesome to be part of history!

    Just don't stake your tent to the sidewalk. The police frown on that. ;)

    Sweet ass. I heard some good things about it yesterday on the news, so I think I'll also pick it up...Probably on friday.

    On the topic of autobiographies, I would have to say that the absolute most interesting one I've read was Marilyn Manson's. I read it in two days, cover to cover....Don't know why, but it just popped in my head.

    Back on topic:

    Wish I could meet ol' Billy J Clinton too. It should be quite the experience.

    Now that sounds awesome.
    I think I might have to go buy that. Theres something very interesting I find about Marilyn Manson. Hes so different. I like that.

    I saw the "60 Minutes" piece w/ Clinton. Should be quite a story.
    I think I'll wait for the library to get it, or, wait for paperback.

    Then again, any reading not on computer stuff is reading not on computer stuff :)

    Congrats on the slot in line.

    Yesterday was the book signing in Chicago. I left at 4am and was in line by 5. Luckly i got there early, over 2000 people showed up and i was number 87 in line! Mr. Clinton was about 45min late so the booksigning didnt take place to 2pm. Wow was it hot in the sun too! :eek:

    It was a really cool experience and i would do it again anytime. There where hundreds of news crews there and i was on 4 tv stations!

    The room he was in was crazy! Secret Service was everywhere, and there where reporters smashed into a tiny area, all had cameras and mics.

    I was able to talk to him for about 15 seconds, and i shook his hand! Below is a pic of the signature!

    :cool:
