Cash: The Autobiography by Johnny Cash. I just picked up this book in paperback. Honestly, I never really have listened to that much Johnny Cash. I like what I’ve heard, but never really went out of my way to hear it. I just finished reading Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, and I kind of wanted to read something a little different. While looking around for some Henry Rollins books in the music section of Borders yesterday, I came across the Cash Autobiography. I read the first paragraph or two of the book and realized yep, this should be pretty interesting.

I also couldn’t help but think of John Cusak’s character, Rob, in ‘High Fidelity’ saying, “I’ve read books like “Unbearable Lightness of Being” and “Love in the Time of Cholera.” And I think I’ve understood them. They’re about girls, right? Just kidding. But I have to say…my all-time favorite book is Johnny Cash’s autobiography “Cash” by Johnny Cash.”

So it was bought. The last kind of autobiographical book I read, was either Stephen King’s “on writing” or “My Life” by Ghandi. I never finished the Ghandi book. Its freakin huge and I had to give it back to somebody who was going out of town for good.

Anyways, another book I’m looking for on that same ilk is Chuck Pahlaniuk, “Stranger than Fiction”.

Thats whats transcribed on the front of the Hitchiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. What genius. I really don’t know why I’ve waited so long to pick up and actually read this classic sci-fi satirically fun book. I finished it yesterday with some time i had in the afternoon. Its a really quick read, and has you laughing at many points, just for the strangeness of some of the situations. It however, does leave you wanting more, which is good, since its a Trilogy thats actually 4 or 5 books.

Bullet split card
Well thats the title of the chapter I’m about to start in Dance of Days, the book I’m reading.

What else is going on. I’m staying up too late again. It seems to be a theme lately.

Wow I can’t think of anything else to write right now.

Oh yeah. I’m taking applications. Put a comment here as a response. Applications for what you say? Well make up what you want to apply for and submit to me. There’s quite a few positions open and highly available here in the World of Mike.
