how to win affection without trying

for some reason, i am under the impression that richard h. shultz jr. and andrea j. dew's book insurgents, terrorists, and militias, which i just finished, attracts female attention while i read it on the subway. perhaps i am so foolish as to inhabit a fantasy world where an interest in non-state combatants is as endearing as a winning smile. more likely, i am under the impression that anyone who is impressed by my reading habits is probably worth knowing. perhaps ali m. ansari's confronting iran will win me some new friends and acquaintances.

way to win friends and influence peeps...and fill up your nights;)

btw-I just interviewed the author for unhooked generation. I think someone could make a mormon version of that book.

oh, that would be fascinating. and a little more controversial, marriage being such a point of interest for the mormon crowd.
