Have you read Hannibal? I know some SKMBers aren't too fond of it (right, kingricefan ?! =D) because the ending is far fetched, but Harris's writing and use of language is spectacular. I think it might be one of SK's recommended reads at the end of On Writing (I keep forgetting to check!!).

I haven't read it and not sure I will. Probably mailing it to someone else. I personally read mostly king or about king.
Me too! I'm reading another author now (Stieg Larsson) because I got the book for 50 cents at the thrift store, but I just want to get back to my SK reread list and hope November comes soon so I can read Revival!! =D

did you get a Grease book? I had a Grease photobook when I was a kid that I loved! I was such a fan of that movie - still am. Would love to run across this some day.

You know, it might be. I totally don't remember what the cover looked like. But inside of it were several still photos, in color from the movie, with the script in comic book style words. Girl, if you don't want it, I will take it. I need to find you something special too. But God, that would be just fabulous to have!

this doesn't have color photos. It has black and white photos. Will get to the post office one day this week.

Me too. I can practically speak the whole movie and of course, sing all the songs. Hey, there are worse things I could do.
Even though the neighborhood thinks I'm trashy and no good.

Grease Sing Along at the Orpheum - July 31st. Free dance lessons in the lobby.
I suppose it could be true,
but there are worse things I could do.

Hmmmm, wonder where my black leather pants are? (PINK was never my colour)
