The racinessness would be in the mind of my wife, actually. 

I had a really stupendous comeback, but I wasn't trying to jack the thread.  Micro, if you'd like to explain how a buxom, topless blond is not racy, we should probably start another thread. 

Look at these racy bookends...

Oh wait, it's a classic depiction of Lady Justice.

Oh, so a half-topless chick wearing a blindfold and holding a sword.  Nope.  Nothin' racy there. 

For what it's worth, I think John Ashcroft was probably right.

On the book cover, you can't even see her bosom. You know she's topless, but you can't really see anything except her  left leg. Further, the context is entirely unsexual, unless you think having an MP5 shoved up your nose is erotic, in which case I don't think I can help.

Don't judge him for what he finds erotic. You just need to be more sex-positive. 

[roo_ster]

Lady Justice is hawt.

I'm just saying I can't help him. Meaning I don't currently have an MP5. :D

You can see plenty of bosom.  If it were a picture of an actual event, yeah, it wouldn't be very sexual.  But when it's a staged photograph, the sexual overtones are intentional and obvious.  To deny that would be dishonest.  And for that matter, her "left leg" is pretty hawt.  If you are not properly stimulated by the female thigh, I can't help you.

I had no idea my little joke about the book cover was going to jack the thread like this.  Sorry.

If we could predict thread jacks this board would be a very different, and worser, place.

My rigidly Puritan wife also holds a degree in English.  I'm sending her to your place, with a red pen.  Nice knowing you.

You better hide your dirty magazines.

[LAK]

I have a dilemma.  If I have that book in the house, I'll need to tear off the cover, lest I concur the wrath of Wife.  Yet if I do that, I'll probably be killed in my sleep by MicroBalrog's secret Israeli super-tactical hit squad of ultimate Wrath-of-G_d death. 

What to do?

Just paint on some extra clothing with a white out pen

I could get into that.

As to the OP's question:

I suggest Lone Survivor by Marcus Luttrel. Its the true story of how Operation Redwing went horribly wrong. It was awesome.

If you're into military history, I would also suggest Inside Delta Force by Eric L. Haney. That tells about Delta's early days, their training, and their basic techniques.

Another good one is Navy SEALs: A History Part II by Kevin Dockery. Half the book is narratives from SEALs.

[Perd Hapley]

Welcome to the forum.

You will get more information if you start a new thread, with a title like "Looking for info on a S&W revolver," or something like that. 

Sorry, I don't have any info on your gun. 

Oh, wait, I see you just started a thread. 

[czshep]

thanks I just figured out how to start a post
