I just finished reading Catton's Army of the Potomac trilogy. It's pretty cool. I also read Robert Rodriguez's Rebel Without a Crew, which more than ever makes me want to rush out and buy a DV camera and start filming. Well, until I realize that Rodriguez is both intensely creative and obsessively hardworking, and I am neither. Ahh well.

My Togo thread got mentioned in a comment on slashdot, and it's since been spread around. Also mentioned were a bunch of funnier pranks played on scammers. I particularly like the three dollar scam.
