1FYI: Paladin Press (http://www.paladin-press.com) is having a pretty good sale for some of their more esoteric titles.

Yeah, "Mr H" has some interesting ideas that if ever were taken beyond the 'informational purposes' state would make the news.Simmer down wrote:Revenge and Humor in the same section? Yeow! That says something.
Why are you describing my adolescence?Fukshot wrote:Ah Paladin Press, the publishers of the worst things I read through my adolescence. Worse than all the John Rechy and Larry Townsend and Anton LaVey and Alastair Crowley and Emma Goldman and even worse than Anais Nin and Henry Miller. Then again, I do still vividly remember those first pictures of the AK74 and 5.45x39 to come out of Afghanistan in SOF.
Funny, I had a similar thought.spara wrote:Why are you describing my adolescence?Fukshot wrote:Ah Paladin Press, the publishers of the worst things I read through my adolescence.

I still enjoy Anais Nin's thoughts from time to time. It wasn't all erotica. She was a rather intriguingly complex character.Fukshot wrote:Ah Paladin Press, the publishers of the worst things I read through my adolescence.

^^^^This for me. I think I bought one issue of SOF, laughed my ass off at it & never bothered again.OldScratch wrote: Eh, LaVey and Crowley were nutcases for whom my interest was short-lived. Same for Paladin Press. Most folks are better off studying wild foods in their respective area than buying their bullshit.
We had Foxfire books around our house, too, back in the 70's, thanks to my father. And SOF was eminently more worldly, as well as readable, than LaVey and Crowley. They were sending people into Afghanistan to report on the war a year or two before Dan Rather made his debut there wearing a pakol on his head. Robert Brown was their editor and Afghan correspondent. Didn't hurt they featured Marilyn Chambers at their Las Vegas conventions.spara wrote:I started reading SOF when the USSR invaded Afghanistan, I was fascinated by their tactics and weaponry including the use of tiny anti-personnel mines dropped from Hind helicopters. In addition to reading whatever I thought was subversive (Burroughs, Miller, Thompson, Kerouac, Ginsberg), I also checked out of the library and held on to as many Foxfire books as I possibly could. I had a really weird world view.
