My Mini Cooper Its Part in My Breakdown review

My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I own a 2013 Mini Cooper S (the last year with the big speedometer) and love it, so I'm interested in the original Mini and own a few books about it.
This book is entertaining, but if you really want to learn about the original Mini you can do better. The book is a mile wide and an inch deep. You'll learn a little something about every kind of Mini ever made and of all the cars that tried to compete with it, but that's it. You'll also learn about how the author restored his own Mini, which is the more worthwhile part of the book.
The author does not consider my 2013 model a proper Mini, which is his privilege.

Bhakta Jim's Bhagavatam Class
If I have any regrets about leaving the Hare Krishna movement it might be that I never got to give a morning Bhagavatam class. You need to be an initiated devotee to do that and I got out before that

I enjoy public speaking and I'm not too bad at it. Unfortunately I picked a career that gives me few opportunities to do it. So this blog will be my bully pulpit (or bully vyasasana if you like). I will give classes on verses from the Bhagavata Purana (Srimad Bhagavatam). The text I will use is one I am transcribing for Project Gutenberg:
A STUDY OF THE BHÂGAVATA PURÂNA
OR ESOTERIC HINDUISM
BY PURNENDU NARAYANA SINHA, M. A., B. L.
This is the only public domain English translation that exists.
Classes will be posted when I feel like it and you won't need to wake up at 3Am to hear them.
