Some great moments in here. I love it when King talks about his 3 year old boy running around quoting The Shining at him. Wonder where that boy is now?? :dance:
Sorry if it's already been posted, I haven't gone through the whole thread yet....
does anyone have the New York Times piece from this Sunday? would love a scan but would like to know what the page number(s) and title is in the print edition.
thanks!
If you wait me, I'll receive it probably in a week.
Just sitting around smoking. :cool:
King says, "I was warped as a child."
Dick Cavett talking about Joe King, "He's not warped then. King replies, "He's very warped.
Is that Stephen King or Dan Aykroyd? :orely:
Thanks Tommy. That was cool.
Thanks for posting that, Tommy. I know what I'm watching tonight!
Glad you guys liked that interview. It was a lot of fun to watch. :)
I liked how everyone was just casually smoking on TV back then. :lol:
Everyone casually smoked everywhere back in the day. My mother, bless her heart, had a smoke before going into labor with me. Standing ashtrays in every hall of the hospital. Unbelievable now.
News anchors smoked, Johnny Carson smoked in the early days and guests were allowed to smoke.
If your parents would agree to it and sign a paper, you were allowed to smoke in high school at designated areas.
I flew over the ocean in 1994 and had a smoke or two myself (I've since quit).
I feel so sorry for all the non-smoking people that had to put up with that for decades.
I mean, you could even smoke in movie theaters.
Cell phones seem to have taken the place of that particular addiction now. I don't know which is worse....
I did love King's line about how anyone can quit smoking but it takes a brave man to face lung cancer. :lol:
I remember in the grocery store I worked in as a teen, sweeping the floor two times a shift just to get all the discarded butts out of the aisles. I could not throw the debris in the trash for two hours lest there be a smoldering butt.
But the REAL killer is those HUGE lapels from the 70's -early 80's. They cause Alzheimer's!!!...I think...I don't remember now.
It was just too cool then. I also had a brown and tan leisure suit with lapels you could use as a squirrel suit and also colors a person could now use in place of syrup of ipecac!!
Unlikely, but I wonder if there will be any signed copies of "The Institute", prior to the release date, on august 30th at this event in Lowell?
