Links n stuff

Stoney at Rebel Yell feels that in a duel between Wal-mart and communism, Wal-mart is always the victor.

I have a mental picture of Acidman trying to walk in a way so that his jewels don't cause him to wail in abject misery.

Ha ha!! Brent at The Ville has found a present for Acidman.

I've found a morbidly interesting site, Autopsy Report. If you find this stuff fascinating, you'll love this blog by an intern in a medical examiner's office.

Dear Geoffrey seems to think that if the dictionary says it, it's the law or something.

I have always been an avid reader. I started out with your typical children's books but then I read Gone With the Wind in the 6th grade and was hooked on more mature literature.
In highschool, I read everything Victoria Holt wrote under all 3 of her pseudonyms. I had this fascination with all things British, especially the royal family. I read everything I could about Henry VIII and Queen Elizabeth I.

I also remember this girl who lived across the street. Her name was Gina and she was in highschool while I was still in junior high. She read a lot and had a HUGE book collection, mostly teen romances. I was addicted to those books. She would let me come over and pick out 5 or 6 books at a time and I would read those in a week or two, then return them for 5 or 6 more. She really fueled my desire for the written word.
I didn't go to the office much because it was too far to walk and my mom didn't have much time to take me, she was a working mother, after all.

In highschool I was one of the only kids in class who could raise their hand and say they've read the required reading BEFORE we were required to read it!
I don't know how well I write anymore. I've forgotten all those rules of grammar and sentence structure but I am a damn good speller because I grew up with my nose in books.
