One good lecture at: http://tastethewind.blogspot.com/2010/12/major-problems-for-mankind.html
Here is a general and very short list of books I am reading or have recently finished or have finished long ago! And books that I hope that other people would benefit from reading!
Now, I realize that many people would laugh or giggle at the suggestion that reading is enjoyable. Some might even snicker at the suggestion. But remember this and remember this very strongly: millions of men, as soldiers, have died, so America's freedoms such as reading any book you want is available to you. If history was different, if history had turned out different, the current age, this country called America would have been different and you might not be so lucky to read any book you wish and desire. In addition, in the year 2010, there are still countries that do not allow its populace to read any book they want. In other words, the people are told - instructed what to read and what not to read!
Plus, after millions of years of brain and mental evolution, human beings are the only biological animal that can read books, and write them too! Reading is part of who human beings are. So really, enjoy reading as a human being. It is a privlege of being a human being who can read!
Second Plus; in this information age, there is so much to learn, so much to forget, and so much more to learn again, only better a second time around. In a country like America, with so many libraries and book stores, even those people without a college education can still learn to learn by reading and studying just for fun. Now that would be one big answer to some of America's social and economical and futuristic problems and issues and dilemmas.
Third Plus; when an expert in any field writes a book for someone to read, that means that the reader does not have to go through all of the initial research and intellectual work for the lenght of time that the author had to before he wrote the book. Of course, the reader might still have to work mentally to grasp the subject, but reading moves the process along much faster.
By reading, one gains perspective. By gaining perspective, one gains higher visions of life, the universe, and of God, and of the human race, and maybe more importantly, higher visions of oneself! Enjoy reading, it is good for the mind's perspective of life, even of one's own life. Perspective is not static, but ever changing within us! A good book helps us to change our perspective on life and the lives of others too. So enjoy a new perspective that we get when reading about all realms of life, on earth and in heaven, but especially realms within our own mind, our own consciousness!
"The hard cold steel serves a purpose! The soft, delicate flower serves a purpose too!
Enjoy reading...and thinking too! They both serve a purpose!" Mr. George D. Patnoe., Jr.
THE BOOKS:.......Carl Sagan once stated, (I heard him ) "The problem with books is that there are millions of them to read. So you have to know which books to read over your lifetime! That is the secret!" .....THE BOOKS..................

SUCH A VERY SHORT LIST OF BOOKS TO READ! BUT IS IS A GOOD START FOR ANYONE!
This blog includes 52 Stories in 52 Weeks, which was done in 2007, along with some metaphysical or life lectures. There is artwork and videos, too. I started writing and drawing with two hands around the year 2001 as a mental and brain development experiment on my own brain to restructure my brain's neurons, etc. again. Simply put, using two hands to write and draw forces both sides of the brain to connect together, to become a holistic, stronger, improved brain. I hope you enjoy my blog.

About Me
- George D. Patnoe., Jr!!!
- United States
- When I was in college studying International Economics/Finance, I was also wondering how to develop a more powerful brain. So in 2001,I began a very specialized ambidextrous brain exercise program, for two hours per day,for many years. Those brain exercise began with me writing out words,mostly verbs, with both hands in different patterns.That developed into dual handed sentence writing to longer stories and dual handed drawing exercises.Details are for future books.I did these two hour brain workouts as a personal experiment to restructure my brain's neurons for the purpose of making my brain stronger for writing and language development; for logically creative storying writing.As far as I know, I am the only person in the course of history to have developed these ambidextrous hand/brain exercises.The purpose of these ambidextrous brain exercises is to strenghten both sides of the brain for language skills development, and to connect both sides of the brain together for language skills development. There is a very logical neurological reason for using two hands to write and draw as brain exercises. I also draw with both hands. 52 Stories is my testament!
