This may shock and amaze you but I'm pulling the plug on the Kennedy assassination book.  1,500 pages of excruciating detail just doesn't fit the schedule right now.  I have another book from the library that I've already started (God: A Brief History) and Rick Perlstein's Before the Storm: Barry Goldwater and the Unmaking of the American Consensus, a precursor to Nixonland, came in today's mail.  

But I can tell you this, just the same: Oswald did it!  If you want further convincing, find the book, Reclaiming History: The Assassination of John F. Kennedy, by Vincent Bugliosi, read the introduction, and see if you aren't satisfied.  If not, keep reading.

Later.

  7. I don't have an opinion on the Kennedy assassination, but do have a saying that some find questionable. I'm a photographer, and sometimes a job calls for a second shooter. I hire a second shooter and insist upon calling him "The Grassy Knoll" for the duration of the shoot. Seems to fit...
