FREAKONOMICS

I have been reading this book called Freakonomics by Steven Levitt and this other dude.  Sorry guy i forgot ur name.  I would do the cool thing where its like currently reading but honestly i dont know how to.  I've been meaning to read this book for a very very long time now.  I have always looked at in when i go to the bookstore.  Please dont think I go to the book store often and read a lot because i dont.  The only reason why i didnt read it yet is because it hasnt been released on soft cover yet.  the price was to steep for a book.  I guess i could have just gone to the library.  But i take so long with my books that i know i will never finish it in time and i hate the feeling that i have to finish a book so i can return on time.  I mean im more than capable of doing it but i just dont like the feeling.  I want to enjoy not rushed.  I'm not even a quarter way through yet and i bought it last week sigh.  I should really read more when i have down time.  Even though i'm just a quarter way through it has been by far the most interesting thing i have read thus far.  The ideas and comparisons are witty and at the same time probable and eye opening and neat.  I just got to reading about crack dealers and how they run their business of selling crack is identical to the McDonalds mega franchise.  Unfortunatly i didnt finish before my metro ride ended but now i want to get back on that metro so i can finish reading how a Big Mac and Crack are marketed the same way.  It's rare for me to find a book that grabs my attention and keeps it till the end.  I think its mainly because when im reading somthing that doesnt grab my attention from the start i tend to wander off.  Not even like thinking of other things but just not thinking.  Im just reading words that doesnt get processed.  Like my brain just switches off.  But i've been thinking maybe it has to do with the fact that i never read with my parents as a child.  Reading was never introduced to me as something to do for enjoyment.  I wonder if that has anything to do with my lack of interest in novels.  But all i really wanted to say was Freakonomics is interesting and that you should read it even though economics bores you to death.
