On an additional thought, there is this book out by A. J. Jacobs entitled "A Year of Living Biblically", while this is a fairly funny account of his trying to literally live by the Bible, I would say it is more like trying to live by the Talmud... of coarse, he also includes the group of writings known as the New Testament in his quest for living. Personally, I believe it is possible to live according to the Torah and the Tanach. I am working towards that goal myself, and I believe that the Karaites pretty much achieve that goal...
Anyway, that's all for now...
