Just finished "Journal of the Dead: A Story of Friendship and Murder in the New Mexico Desert, by Jason Kersten. It's a good journatlistic look at a very strange murder in the New Mexico desert. The story is fascinating to me. The basic deal is that two guys went camping in the desert who were unprepared. They get lost . Four days later the boys in brown go looking for them. They find one guy half crazed with dehydration, the other guy dead. The first guy admitted killing him, but claimed his buddy begged him to.

Makes me think I gotta think twice about inviting people to go camping with me.

I've been reading through "Google Hacks". Good stuff there. Sometimes I wish I could make a living as a researcher. Finding data is so interesing to me. Of course, that's part of what my job is now, I suppose.
