A lot of books I read are comparative size, atlas is a smidgen bigger, heck I've read atlas 2x now, slacker. Seriously though, Fountainhead is very good, but Atlas is amazing.

I need to read Atlas Shrugged. I hear it just had it's best selling year ever. Apparently people who have read it are seeing the story playing out in real life and telling their friends they need to read it.

"Obama gave Queen Elizabeth an iPod full of music from Broadway musicals. Apparently he's working off that old stereotype that queens like show tunes. I'm surprised he didn't give her a Liza Minelli album."

haha, I remember seeing that and thinking if the queen didn't own one already, does she even want one? An iPod just strikes me as odd, maybe it is my aversion to apple.
