If I feel a "macho moment" come on, I'll sing The Rolling Stones "Under My Thumb" on karaoke night. I get all my relationship angst out during that one. I do a MEAN Jagger hip-swivel.

The story of Camille (part II)

No one I showed it to liked it as much as the first one I wrote, but it was so much more clever, dark and sadistic that I just couldn't help but love it.

Stephen King is my very favorite..droolin for his next book!!

Me too. I read everything he's ever written at least four times. Except Cujo.



Yeah, my all time fav of his is THE STAND. But all his others, especially Dark Tower series, and his book on the art of writing are good

I think mine are The Stand and It.

I HAD THE CHANCE TO MEET HIM AND DIDN'T TAKE IT!
