I used to read Stephen King's Salem's Lot when I was young, and it was old book. But the movie is good. ;)

I hope you enjoy Cell. I thought it was one of his best.

I have two books going right now. 'Will Storr Vs. The Supernatural' & 'Occult America'.

Only problem is now that spring is here, I don't spend much time reading.

Hmmm.... I thought Cell was one of his worst.

You probably won't believe it, but right now I'm reading War and Peace. :|

It does borrow heavily from the Stand, in as much as the main (Maine?) characters make a long trek through a wasted America, but I like the tech aspect of it.

I liked the idea of cell phones turning people into zombies.....but that was pretty much all I liked.

I have seen people walking around in public, eyes glazed over, jaws hanging slack, shuffling around as if with no direction, mumbling to themselves.... At which point I usually see the little gizmo clipped to their ear.

I won't wear one of those things. It's bad enough that I wear a hearing aid all day, I'm not lousing up my 'good ear' with yet another piece of electronics.

Help me out here, before I make a crass and inappropriate joke that I have to apologize for. Do you actually wear a hearing aid, or are you playing off all those "old guy" jokes I'm always making about you? :?

Regardless of my response, I fully expect yours to be crass and inappropriate, it is one of your more endearing qualities. 8)

More than makes up for that wardrobe... :wink:

I'm hard of hearing impaired guy since I was 2½ year old from German Measle. And, I used to wear hearing aides long time ago. When I was 15 years old, I stopped wearing them anymore because those hearing aides didn't help me to hear anymore. :(
