I think this is the very first time I have actually been on a message board, and I feel kind of vulnerable, but what the heck...I used to read King when I was younger, but fell out of practice. Recently I took up again, and noticed something weird happening. I live with other people in my house, so naturally I don't always have quiet solitude for reading. Why is it that so many times what I am reading on the page is also being said on the television, or in a conversation, or, I don't know, on the radio? I don't know how many times I stop reading and show my husband the same words on page as what was spoken on tv or in conversation. It happens ALL THE TIME. It's kinda freaking me out. I've mentioned it to co-workers that it keeps happening, too. I need to know if this happens to other people while reading as well. I've noticed these things happen before,with other authors, small amounts, but recently, while reading King, it's ridiculous. Happens all the time. My husband insists it's just coincidence, but i think there is something else going on here. Freaky!
