You know what?

I almost bought Death Sentences but got jared diamond's guns germs and steel. it is a logical step from exterminate all the brutes and i plan to talk about the book here a lot. especially an outline of the prologue or introduction. but death sentences seemed interesting, too. written by an australian who's been responsible for political speech writing and also for satirical and comedy writing. maybe like their john stewart type. i haven't read the link really, but the cover flap was inticing when i saw it at the mall. it seemed like he was going to break down why we need to shake off some of this rigid, cliched and meaningless management-speak etc. but isn't it more important the way the manager expresses his words than the words themselves. the right words can sometimes spur you to change your attitude, but if someone with whom you've already an intoxicated attitude for says some cliched 'pump you up' inspirational speech, you'll get chills despite the cliche', and because of the energy and close brainwave-type feeling towards that person. and whatever, so long as he's very clear and detailed, i'd like the book.
