Currently working my way through 'Practical Programming for Strength Training' by Mark Rippetoe, Lon Kilgore and Glenn Pendlay. Good stuff, and very informative.

Started on Chapter one of The Old Man and the Sea by Hemingway. With my schedule, I don't know when I'll get around to finishing it (although it is very short).

Mid 60's, and still going strong. He's had a rough 12 months, health-wise, but still "bombs away" regularly. His wife, Laree, runs the forums and their internet shop presence. The regulars at the board have an annual get together, and it's a pretty good community, with areas for oly and sports related lifting, powerlifting, bodybuilding, all lifting, and even kettlebells. Dave's good people.
