    I didn't know you like The Wire. I loved that show.

    At the end of the last season HBO put all of the previous shows up on On Demand. I missed the first season, but got the rest. I've been watching them in sequence once a week with friends so I'm only about a third of the way into the last season. I am in awe of the writing. It's the best stuff on the tube (except for The Simpsons).

    Charles, if you like Alan Furst you should check out my good friend Olen Steinhauer, who's also lurking around here somewhere. K

    But, butbutbut...my to-read list is already six pages long! On the other hand, nothing beats a personal recommendation (especially for someone I might rub elbows or bend an elbow with), so thanks, Kevin, he goes near the top of the list.

    Thank God (the only God on ning, as it happens) that someone else agrees with me about Christopher Walken and King of New York!

    I think I may have to explain that god thing. Maybe I'll blog about it.

    Favorite Leonard! Jeez, that seems impossible.
