Living Room / Re: What books are you reading?

At those boring breaks at work, currently reading "All the presidents men" (I assume that everyone knows the story of Bob Woodward´s and Carl Bernstein's journalistic work, a.k.a "the Watergate Scandal"). a great movie too... (Robert Redford and Dustin Hoffman as Woodward and Bernstein).

 Just finished a re-reading of "Pink Floyd, människorna, musiken, myterna" (Pink Floyd, the people, the music, the myths) by Bengt Liljegren. A great book if you are a Pink Floyd fan and fluent in the Swedish language, as the masterpiece doesn't seem to have been translated to English (?).

Now reading "Collapse" by Jared Diamond.
Very, very interesting. What is it that make societies collapse? Historical examples...

My condolences too.

Let it take its time, people here's thinking about you...

(I'm just a new guy here, but have been there myself... a family member or a friend... human or not...)

Prisoners of war (Hatufim).

If you like "Homeland" this is the "original", and much, much better if you ask me. The Israeli low budget TV series "Hatufim" (Kidnapped) is the TV series that later was adapted into "Homeland".

As I'm new here at Donation Coder, I'd like to present myself   by showing you what movies I recently have seen and really enjoyed too...

 "The Pusher Trilogy". i.e. Pusher, Pusher II and Pusher III. Three stories about three different characters in the Copenhagen drug dealer/criminal world.

Here's a short resume (wikipedia)
