My plan for this blog is simple: talk about tv shows, movies, books, and games that I like. I simply want a place to get those words out of my head, and I have exhausted family and friends enough with my inane opinions. I seriously don't even care if anyone reads this.

Quick Note on Something
I'm reading Stephen King's newest book of short stories, Just After Sunset. In the story "N.", he briefly mentions a landmark in Maine called "Boy Hill". In previous King works, he mentions "the long boy" and "big, handsome boy" (in Lisey's Story and Rose Madder, respectively). For some reason both the latter "boy" phrases have always stuck with me, sort of like songs that you get stuck in your head, snippets of chorus playing over and over again. I do that with phrases, too. When I read "boy hill" in that story I immediately thought of the other two. I beleive I have now inadvertently added a third (oops!).
