The author's name is just Sam? Or what did I miss?
And don't forget.. (I hope he is wearing a PJ)
a James Patterson story...if the search engine is correct...the Sam-letters thingy.
"Sam-letters thingy"?! You people are too cryptic for me!!!
OIC, i hadda google it. Sam's Letters to Jennifer is the book's title. Author is James Patterson.
this...and I thought the search engine said it is a James Patterson story...#398 or so. heh! Sam is an affectionate penguin and Jennifer is the tickler employed by the San Diego Zoo...and a Hare Krishna gets involved, passing out Beatles' albums outside the gate. Very touching.
I am trying to find a great Koontz-King fight I saw on utube.. Anyone?? Funny funny.
^ James Patterson is the name on the cover, who knows what group wrote it...
King v. Koontz was on Family Guy I think.
I can give a Youtube where sK says he's read almost every Dean Koontz book.
What?
I'm trying to get noticed by the James Patterson scouting team. Yeah...and so Jennifer, the penguin tickler, is stalked by some strange dude in a saffron robe who wants to give her Revolution...and when she refuses his advances...she's heard the stories...the strange dude attacks the penguin, disguised as Jennifer...with one of those little hand tambourines they use...what are they called? They make noise. Noise-makers? Sam flees to the north woods.
This is a penguin being tickled. [VIDEO][/VIDEO][VIDEO][/video]

Koontz's The Face is another good one.
And here's a short lesson in style: I hate apostrophe "S's" after a sillypant coconut. They often slow readers down due to their awkwardnicity.
Rather this: (Starting with the moist impoitant aztec of the sentience) The Face by Koontz is another good one.
Bougainvillea,

Sibilant Consonant. The other words y'all get fer sho.
I know, that's why imho a person must enjoy bending certain grammar rules, as exemplified in this Churchill quote...
Ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I will not put.
Oh, and as for the bougainvillea, I spent some time at the Dean Koontz site, and enjoyed reading his comments. Once he wrote about a fan who'd written, telling him how glad he was that Koontz had not included a bougainvillea in his most recent book. Koontz said he doubled checked and sure enough there was no mention of a bougainvillea there. So, he contacted his publisher and submitted a revision for upcoming editions which included a bougainvillea.

Twat'nt me.
Some things, hey?...like split-infinitives...improper grammar, but employed by one and all...and if Strunk & White are to be believed, the first rule they list, page 1 in my Third Edition copy...1. Form the possessive singular of nouns by adding 's Follow this rule whatever the final consonant. Thus write,
- Charles's friend
- Burns's poems
