Yes indeed
The Badboys get the women, and most guys stand around wondering why. From what I've seen, money and some cred certainly help, but are not necessary. You need to show you are a highly self-confident, dominant alpha male. Men who are comfortable in their own skin are ...

like a personalized zine of degeneracy
i've only glanced at this book a handful of times in the 3 days it's been in my possession, but i already love it. he puts a lot of himself into this tome, makes it fun, dirty, sordid. Cinema Sewer reads like an actual zine, which is cool also. for those of us ...

Havana Nocturne: How the Mob Owned Cuba and Then Lost It to the Revolution

William Morrow, 2008

An unexpected gem.
I picked this book up in a situation where very little was available to me. It looked interesting, but wasn't something I'd have picked out from a larger selection. I'm really happy my selection was limited. It's great when a good author with solid research skills ...

A sensational and touchy topic being told in a powerful fashion. It's sad to see such catastrophic things are happening in such modern societies.

Nightmare USA: The Untold Story of the Exploitation Independents

A History of Violence 1970-85. [Sections below]
Price: I've talked to many people that feel the price is a bit steep and I agree the book isn't cheap. It is however 500 pages filled with interviews, pictures (everywhere), and essays. Think Arnold Schwarzenegger's The New Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding : ...
