Favorite button on remote: POWER OFF.
BooksThe single most influential book I ever read was in high school, just after it came out: "The Autobiography of Malcolm X." Most of his other writings and speeches, especially in the last year of his life, too. And I almost forgot Langston Hughes, especially his writings about his freshman year at Columbia, which I read during my freshman year at Columbia. Also numerous works by C.L.R. James and even Hegel and Rosa Luxemburg. I guess Karl and Groucho Marx, too. "Why I Am Not A Christian" by Bertrand Russell. Anything by Richard Dawkins. When I'm drunk, Bukowski. "Tokyo Underworld" by Robert Whiting. Almanacs, dictionaries, atlases, and encyclopediae. The only novel on this list: "The Color Purple" by Alice Walker. Sports books: "I Never Played The Game" by Howard Cosell. "The Great Olympic Swindle" by Andrew Jennings. "A Hard Road To Glory" by Arthur Ashe. "Cut Time" by Carlo Rotella. "Combat Sports in the Ancient World" by Michael Poliakoff. "Encyclopedia of American Wrestling" by Mike Chapman. "Ball Four" by Jim Bouton. Note that these were all influential, and positively so. That, however, doesn't mean that I agree with everything in them. But now go out and read them all, y'all.

Intelligent and socially conscious people from this or another planet.

If I have a hunch that you'd be the kind of person with whom I'd like to share a beer or five, I might send you a request to be a friend-- whether or not you drink, and whether or not we'd actually ever meet, which is probably unlikely anyway. If we have at least one thing in common which is important to either you or me, I'd probably send a request as well -- even if we're miles apart on something else. If we know each other already, which has happened a couple of times here, and neither of us hates the other, it's just about automatic. And as for meeting new people found here in real life -- as they say in boxing, you never know.
