I'm reading the Harry Potter series now. I have read the Clapton book and thought it was a good read. I am always reading another book. Usually Sci-Fi / Fantasy, favorite authors are Stephen R Donaldson and Terry Pratchett.

Here's the condensed version:

I'm great. Some bad things happened, but they weren't my fault. Oh, and I'm really great.

There. I just saved you some time and money. 8)

Hey Snowy: in a dyslexic or Freudian moment (you choose) I read that as Song of the Beer. I thought I could sense Mr russianracehorse grabbing for his coat on his way out to the book store - till I reread and saw my mistake... :lol:

Thanks guys

Sometimes books you think are going to be good can be real drags. Once got a way into Carl Fogartys (ex world superbike champ) biog and had to give up. Came across just like EC's book as described by some.

"im brilliant etc etc"

:(

I read the Clapton book but it was a long time again. It was an earlier version, think it went up to about 1986.
