Where In The World Is Giovanni, Part II

So I think I should have done a little more research when I posted the first Where In The World Is Giovanni post.  Apparently, Mars' Cheese Castle is some sort of landmark tourist site on the highway between Chicago and Milwaukee.  I just thought it was a tacky roadside stand that sold cheese.  I had no idea it was famous.

Michelle wins the prize and if you email me with your snail mail address, I'll send it out shortly.

As for the other pictures, one was the Chicago skyline and the other was the war memorial in Milwaukee.  Why, you may ask, dear and gentle readers, were we in Milwaukee?  Well, I hear it's lovely this time of year.

Giovanni is intriguing as he is not quite Italian. I want more tales. The Italian trolls are pucci's.
Neverthelest, moi wants more!

What I'm Reading

  • Edward Ugel: Money For Nothing
    Subtitled, One Man's Journey Through The Dark Side Of Lottery Millions. (****)
  • Susan Braudy: This Crazy Thing Called Love
    The true story behind the Billy Woodward shooting, the case on which Dominick Dunne based his novel, The Two Mrs. Grenvilles. (*****)
  • Matt Birbeck: A Beautiful Child
    True story about the mysterious life and death of a young woman who's real identity still remains unclear. Excellent read. (****)
  • Richard Yates: Revolutionary Road
    A novel about the alienation arising from living in the "perfect" suburbs. Hailed as a great literary book. I thought it was okay, at best. (**)
  • Annie Proulx: Close Range, Wyoming Stories
    A collection of lyrical short stories from Annie Proulx that contains Brokeback Mountain among other gems. (****)
  • John Grisham: The Innocent Man
    I can only quote from the jacket blurb: "If you believe that in America you are innocent until proven guilty, this book will shock you. If you believe in the death penalty, this book will disturb you. If you believe the criminal justice system is fair, this book will infuriate you." A must read. (*****)
  • Nancy Caldwell Sorel: The Women Who Wrote The War
    Fascinating look at women journalists at the front during WWII. (****)
  • Jack Olsen: Charmer
    Riveting true crime by a master. (****)
  • Ann Rule: Too Late To Say Good Bye
    Excellent telling of the Bart Corbin cases. (****)
  • Michael Crichton: Airframe
    Ehhh. Better than the back of a cereal box, I guess. (**)
