Re: Books that inspired you

Don't forget Fierce Invalids Home From Hot Climates and Even Cowgirls Get the Blues, from which I quote, "Like many Italic sentences, this one has Mafia connections." Tom Robbins is silly, but in a good way.

Finally got around to reading ZatAoMM, as so many suggested. What I took away from it is the idea that what you do is far less important than how you do it. It is quite simply a good story (made me want to buy a motorcycle), but the philosophical discussion interwoven within the cross-country motorcycle trek truly makes the book special.
