(Sorry I can’t remember where I got it. I find something I want keep and then save it for my own use. This was one of those times.)

Maybe Daniel Peterson quoting David Brooks.

By the way, I don’t know if you all have either seen, read, or discussed Hardy’s “Annotated Book of Mormon”. It’s worth spending time with. Hey, MG. I hope you're well. I believe that there are more than a few here who will have read the book. Maybe you should start a thread and lead a discussion o...

Good recommendations, Xenophon.

Though it's a little dated, for someone experiencing PTSD from combat, I'll add Jonathan Shay's Achilles in Vietnam.

In truth, Jersey, I probably would--with the caveats that I listed above. I think that PTSD is too easily shrugged off by a misunderstanding public--a tendency this book certainly attempts to remedy. The book's strengths are that it's well-written and accessible, with a solid core of theory. Its wea...

Two words for Shades: Paul Wolfowitz.

You're overly optimistic.

that's not really true once you understand all of those different discussions are part of the same monotonous megathread. I tried reading it, and it's over a hundred pages. Does the thread have Cliff Notes? Yes, it does. That's probably it. It has nothing to do with seeing a dude whose board exista...
