Anybody know if there is a logical reason for the order given here vs pubilication or chronological order? I would think ... I think you meant Executive Orders, and yes I saw the Titans game. I needed the Texans to get that FG and pick up a few yards in OT for a fantasy league win, but I lost for the 7th week out of the last 8.

Executive Styles in Canada
The Master Butchers Singing Club
The Professor and the Madman

I should receive soon:
-The Arctic Incident (Artemis Fowl #2) by Eoin Colfer
-The Incredible Shrinking Man by Richard Matheson
