The bit players
We have talked a bit about Ticky and Gasher, Allie and the lovely Miss Pittston. Even, briefly, Katz from the pharmacy.
How about the rest?
I'm thinking in particular of the woman in the last book, that drove Roland to NY? He threw her a fuck even though he didn't want to.
Seems like Roland did that a lot.
The kindness of close friends is like a warm blanket
yeah, Roland is always good for a roll in the sack. LOL!
We don't really see a lot bit players that aren't flashbacks until Wolves of the Calla. Now we are in full swing of new players and storylines. I always liked Rosalita. She was hard core simple and to the point. I like a good well written woman and SK does just fine by her, imo.
Lalalalaaaa, lalalalaaa

Yep, she was a woman that deserved a good Roland roll.

I was jealous of her.
Roland would have understood.

Allie... then that ghost... then nothing for God knows how long... then Rosalita, for only a few days... and in some time, at last, Irene... and nothing again till the very end, which wasn't very close.
Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rosalita sounded the hottest of them all to me..my favorite bit players though are Richard P. Sayre and the Church of the Holy God Bomb preacher Harrigan.

oh yes. I once voter for her in a poll, something like "Who would you like to have sex with", - preferring her to Susan and even to Susannah

I thought your forever favourite was Sylvia.
Roland would have understood.
Sylvia is pretty damn hot......oh it's too hard to choose!

You needn't choose. Sylvia is yours.
Roland would have understood.
I would say if you draw a percentage of the times he got laid that we know of...the pity screws would represent a lot.do you call that a lot?Seems like Roland did that a lot.

Roland's just a damn pimp.
Roland sells his women for sex?? Must be in the "Extra-special Uncut Editions" of the Dark Tower series!Roland's just a damn pimp.

The Guy in the Flannel Shirt, aka, John Cullin. The guy was sent by Ka to help our boys out in SoS. Plus, you just got to love that accent.

Your Favorite Character in The Dark Tower
Mine is hands down, Roland. He was the first person you get to know. He is the last gunslinger and he is on a quest. The whole flashback storytelling of Tull is what sent me full swing into Roland's quest.
Don't get me wrong, I love the entire ka-tet, but Roland is number one for me.

Gasher. Just kidding. It's Roland!

really, Los? who'd have guessed that one.
I've always liked Tian Jaffords for having the courage to try to organize a stand against the Wolves even without Gunslingers to do the job.
Walter, Randall, Flagg, Man in Black
What ever you want to call him, he's my pick.
Good choice.
