If you want it, you'll have to come to Athens to get it. It should not surprise you that I've not heard of either of those WV authors either seeing as I now live in OH.<BR/><BR/>Rex Queems (the phony)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8278395.post-44128197395426704722008-09-19T07:33:00.000-05:002008-09-19T07:33:00.000-05:00Josh, I'm not surprised that you don't watch Lost....Josh, I'm not surprised that you don't watch Lost. Just disappointed. It's amazing and mind-bending. And The Passion was okay, but I'm not sure I'd say someone "just has to see it."Jeff Kerrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06538526897915831583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8278395.post-41266856492895278432008-09-18T12:22:00.000-05:002008-09-18T12:22:00.000-05:00I think avoiding "Titanic" is the popular culture ...I think avoiding "Titanic" is the popular culture equivalent of avoiding the actual iceberg that the actual Titanic could not avoid. What a waste of time and a horrendous rewriting of history along the lines of Marxist ideology. Other than that, it was great.<BR/><BR/>The WV writers you mentioned? I've never heard of them. It must be good stuff. <BR/><BR/>And as to S.D. Smith. Anyone who uses initials has to be so pretentious he's definitely got to be awesome. And hard to understand.S.D.

That counts for something, right?<BR/><BR/>I'm gearing up to read some obscure stuff now, though. From West Virginia writers, no less! I'm going to order "Town Smokes" by Pinckney Benedict and "The Stories of Breece D'J Pancake." Have you ever read either?<BR/><BR/>Oh, and I'd like to read some stuff by that S.D.

I still haven't seen "The Passion" and I think about twelve-thousand people told me I "just have to" and many other persuasive lines, including, but not limited to the fact that people were really going to change their lives now because now they felt so sorry for Jesus. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, I do like Lost, and the Office, both very popular. So, not so smug. But I'm way too smug for Heroes, kuh. I'd rather be watching C-Span, he says, striking pinky into air and sipping tea. <BR/><BR/>I'm glad you're sobering up. But stay cool, try to read things that very few people understand, or have even heard of.S.D. Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11587104303593306093noreply@blogger.com
