They're spiritual zombies in "The Road" as opposed to the real, physical kind (represented last week in those hacked highway construction signs in Texas). Time is just that much deeper than the rest of us to be able to pick those up.

Name: Rick Ollerman Source: unca20090314.htm Since I can't afford to buy very many new books anymore (or at least new books at the new prices)(and I REFUSE to pay an extra two bucks for mass market paperbacks that are simply an inch taller than the old-fashioned format), I buy mostly used books. Wh...

Name: Rick Ollerman Source: unca20081110.htm Sadly, I didn't have anything better to do (I already spent time today identifying fragments of four posters from John Grisham movies in order to enter a drawing for his latest book) and I posted a comment inviting Mr. Randy Johnson to come on over.

On their FAQ page they say they present material hosted on other sites so the DWST source may track ...

Name: Rick Ollerman Source: unca20080731.htm So now that Rick's back I assume Harlan's available for some more website hosting/monitoring duties. I may be going on vacation this winter so I wanted to be sure to get my reservation in for my own site. (As a completely irrelevant aside, I've often bee...

Name: Rick Ollerman Source: unca20080731.htm Good on ya. I wish you well. I had an old girlfriend one time whose mother had smoked her whole life. One day she simply through her cigarettes away and was done with them (for good, as far as I knew). When I asked her why she said that she just didn't w...

Name: Rick Ollerman Source: unca20080731.htm Charlie, I got nailed by a bit of incompetency by a doc when I still lived in St. Pete a few years ago; long story short, one of the things I ended up with (after being bedridden for eight months) was a diagnosis of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (a blood test...
