    Got 3 new books to read before the 21st outta the library:

    Britain before the Reform Act: Politics and Society  1815-32 (Eric Evans)

    The Great Reform Act (Michael Brock)

    Labour and Reform, Working Class movements 1815-1914 (Clive Behagg)

    The first two will help immensely with the finer detail of my A2 course. The last one probably won't, its just to get a leftist spin on labourism, chartism etc in 19th century Britain.

    Things were rocky and then when we finally decided to get intimate, I discovered something very unexpected. Apparently, she hasn't finished her "transformation" and still has a penis. Now I love her even more.

    ahh, i tried to read that over the summer but really couldn't get into it.

    I really don't understand the basis for his pro-american views. The foreign policy stuff, just don't get how he came to those conclusions at all.

    Yeah, I'm kinda wondering that, now. He does seem to just assume a lot, which quite irritates me. Also, for someone claiming to have moderate views he seems kinda pro-Bush to me.

    Yeah ive just stopped reading it because it really pissed me off.

    The ignorance in that book and the one-sidedness. So many gaps.
