Get to know DT.Org's Staff #4-Randall Flagg 5/12-5/18

My name is Jerome. I was born many years ago in Alabama. When I was 2 years old my mother left my abusive Father, taking my brother and me to California. In my childhood years we moved often. At around 10 years of age we settled in California for good. I have lived in California ever since. For the last 41 years I have lived in the San Francisco Bay Area, the last 16 years in Antioch.
For 30 years I worked in the grocery business.
My wife Dolores and I have 5 children ranging in age from 16-30 years old.
I have been a King fan since the late 70's, a collector since the late 80's and a Dark Tower fan from day one.
I enjoy traveling, reading, cooking, the NFL and was an early adopter of High Definition TV-thus I enjoy most anything broadcast in high definition.
Several years ago I purchased the site content from Matt, and began running the day to day operations of the board.

OK questions ... Hmmm ..

1) Not including credit cards and checks, how much money do you have in your wallet at the moment?

2) At what age did you lose your virginity? Who was he? (lol)

3) What do you do, jobwise? Describe a normal work day.

4) How does TheDarkTower.org get bigger/better? What is the plan?

5) What really is your favorite item in your collection?

From what I can gather you enjoy an occasional adult beverage. What are some of you favorites?

Is there a point that you see yourself stepping back from the day to day operations of this site?

What are some of your pet peeves.

Places that people fly from around the world, spending thousands of dollars, and often hours of travel just to get here, and I just hop in my car and I am there. That plus no smog, and even less phoniness than other major cities.

Favorite restaurant?

Favorite movie?

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly - (1966)

Favorite facilitator??? *bats eyelashes*

Great video :-)

1. What member on this site has annoyed you the most? And how?
2. Other than King himself, out of all the people you've met who are in some way related to King (publishers/reviewers/collectors etc), who have you enjoyed meeting the most and why?
3. If you could choose the next story to be done as a S/L, what would it be, and what publisher would you have do it?
