I read and heard several more reviews and comments on the "100 Best Books" list.  I found a copy of it on www.npr.org.  I have read about 10, seen about 10 in movie form (some of the same ones as I've read) and there were 4 or 5 I might have read or seen the movie but wasn't sure.  There were quite a few I had not heard of.  I found it hard to believe that Ulysses made No. 1.    Random house has the "Board's 100 Best" compared to their readers  (The Modern Library)  I thought the reader's list was more, say, practical.  Atlas Shrugged was number 1.  I read about 25 of their list but you have to question their list also as it has "Tek Lords" by William Shatner on it (no. 62).
 
Had a nice weekend, bike ride on the canal, dinner with some friends, and things around the house.
