Currently reading: Bowers Hoards & Treasures book. But that gets read outside with a good cigar and two fingers of The Glenlivet. Life's good.
<< <i>At the moment, it's Breen, Crosby, and the COAC on American tokens. All three are my prep work for an upcoming Numismatist article.

A cure for insomnia? I read one piece of quoted legislation in Crosby and I'm off to lala land. Edited to add: In case you're wondering, yes, I have The Early Coins of America (which I won in an RYK give away) on the shelf of my nightstand. I still haven't read it through (but I'll get there eventually).
Along with a copy of the book Astro Glide by J.Y. Kelly!!

I have several issues of Coin World and the ANA mag.
I also have a book on New Orleans Gold.
I also have a 457 magnum.
no, they are not on the night stand. They are in it.
And, yes my wife would not be happy with coin mags, she gets mad enough when I read them and watch tv with her at the same time.

<< <i>Do you guys really have a gun on your nightstand? >>
Mine is in a digital touch safe (can be operated in the dark by touch) bolted to the nightstand.
The alarm clock isn't in a safe.
Reading material has been replaced by a laptop.

Nice choice but it looks like it hasn't been fired enough. I have a similar black 226 beside my bed.
