Reading List

A list of books we have read to get us in the right mental state. We recommend you pick them up, or at least check them out from your local library.

Killing Yourself to Live by Chuck Klosterman

On the Road by Jack Kerouac

Shoeless Joe by W.P. Kinsella

Sideways by Rex Pickett

Whiskey : The Definitive World Guide by (I'm not kidding) Michael Jackson

Boys of Summer by Roger Kahn

Baseball and Philosophy: Thinking Outside the Batter's Box by Eric Bronson (ed.)

and of course

Sandy Koufax: A Lefty's Legacy by Jane Leavy (doesn't have much to do with our roadtrip, but he is the greatest lefty of all time, and that is note worthy.)

For some reason this has us going to Algeria right after San Francisco. Although, believe it or not, this was once a plan I don't think we will make to Northern Africa on this trip. There are talks of being Baseball Ambassadors in the Sahara some time in the near future, look for news on that.

Just Another No-hitter

I just thought I would throw up this picture of the immortal Sandy Koufax because I was figuring out how to post pictures.
