jacques cousteau

i just finished reading jacques cousteau: the sea king. it was a really interesting book. but i have to warn you--you won't like him if you read the book. i won't get into details because i don't want to spoil it. but if you have great memories of him from your childhood, you just won't think of him the same way.

i recommend it, but i have to admit it's not really my subject matter. i wasn't always into the book, not because it wasn't a good book, but because i didn't care about him. then, when it becomes apparent that he's a jerk, i was less into it. so good book if you actually care to learn something about captain cousteau, but otherwise i don't know. mostly, i read it because lee read it. and for those of you who know lee you know that he doesn't read ANYTHING except harry potter. he really liked the book, so i thought i would read it as well. so there you have it.

p.s.--the man looks like a penguin... of course he was going to become a diver...
