Mother Jones or National Review?
Uhhhh...
Mother Jones, although National Review is a well written periodical that does not get in the slough.
3rd person or 1st person books?
Sancho, I appreciate your kindness, thank you. smiles...
the baseball book im reading (in the last chapter) is leonard koppett's "the thinking fan's guide to baseball"--its been a pretty good read. speaking of your braves---I just read in the book that when hank aaron was traded from Atlanta to Milwaukee at the end of his career, he ended up playing in the same stadium he started at there.
that's a fun question tony. I think because so many books we read are 3rd person, i see the 1st person books as special treats.
however, I think I could easily live with all books being 3rd person as compared to living with all books being 1st person.
so which perspective am I answering from? ack! laughs...
im going to go with 1st person books as treats.
earl grey or English breakfast tea?
English Breakfast - Earl Grey tastes like soap to me.
Steak or Lobster?
Do, or do not. There is no try. - Yoda
Steak, since lobster would take me to bankruptcy! ahah
The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon or Conan?
Conan, dig the hair, also he appeals to my Irish side (ack, ack, ack, always after me lucky charms)
Thanks for the book rec', bounty, I looked for it at a B&N - no dice. Gonna be in Manhattan on Friday, so I'll check at Stand Books.
Cato or Cicero?
Uhhhh...

(Cicero lacked the element of surprise)
Limburger or Provolone?
Limberger
cashews or peanuts?
peanuts
mango juice or apple juice?

lemme know if you get the book Sancho and end up reading (and hopefully) liking it. its just a little bit dated, you might have better success finding it online at one of the used places.
oh no way danik! cashews are the best! laughs...although sometimes pistachios can beat 'em! now that I am thinking of it though, have you ever had "beer nuts"---those are made with peanuts (I think) and those are right up there too.
totally provolone over limburger. though the latter's making me think of my love for abbott and Costello.
which is a nice segue into the marx brothers, or abbott and Costello?

Never heard of "beer nuts", bounty, but I love cashew nuts too! But they are very expensive.
Certainly dinos, real and fictional ones!
winter or summer sports?

Mid Caps or Large Caps for 2017?
Uhhhh...
