About meI am a partner in a small San Diego law firm. I have been married 33 years and have a son (age 16) and a daughter (age 21). The picture is of me and my son ca 1992. The Rickenbacker has'nt aged a bit, My daughter attends Mount Holyoke College and is currently spending her junior year abroad at the University of Florence. Everyone in the family is an Italophile. In addition to books, my passions include: playing the guitar, cooking, and hiking, fishing and skiing in the Eastern Sierra where we have a second home.
About my libraryMy tags speak for themselves. I only collect books by writers I like or on subject matters I like. I do not collect bindings or first editions; nor am I a completist because even my favorite writers produce some clunkers. I have read nearly every book in my catalog with the exception of some of the more turgid and prolix classics. I also have a passion for science fiction; however, I generally buy used paperbacks which I do not keep and which therefore are not catalogued.

But there's a lot of great pared down bossa, often just a singer and a guitar. I need to go through my collection to cite a lot of examples, but I believe both Joao Gilberto's "Joao Voz e Violao" and "Joao Gilberto: Live in Montreux" feature just Gilberto and his guitar. There's also many Baden Powell, Luiz Bonfa and Charlie Byrd albums that are basically solo (or small group) acoustic.

Was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here as well as a few other book-related sites. Saw you liked Paris Trout, and I thought you might like my novel since it's also southern and a bit dark. I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like. Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:

I would suspect when refers to himself as another Silverado squatter he is talking philosophically. More a state of mind than an actual group.
If I come across any other references I will let you know.
