OK folks, I have been trying to accomplish this for some time now and have found some one locally that will video the ceremony and provide a link for posterity!!! Unless you folks can raise enough cash for the Haven Fund to prevent it, I will be burning a copy of "Faithful" to be viewed on the "WWW" (on "Youtube" as well) that will be lauded over all you folks for years and years to come!!! The only thing that can prevent this from occurring is your donations to the "2013 Haven Fund Raiser"!!!!

Send your PP donations to zoidsmith@aol.com and make sure you comment on "Save Faithful" in your donation!! If you want to "Burn" it then indicate that as well. The results will be revealed on the last day of the Fund Raiser.

I can't wait!!! Anybody got a match????

Picture this!!!

Nope, just a rather large jar of Vaseline :P

I, on the other hand, may choose to save a book - it's my Christian duty, is it not?

Well I guess even though a longtime Yankee fan.... I have to have more empathy for the Red Sox perhaps than you ever would allow
as It has been at a few spring training games where I have bumped (yea really) into Mr King who graciously signed items for me there.

Mr. Merlin, I wrote a poem for you:

But only a book, it was.
Unicorn brains are made of fuzz.
Really not thinking,
Now only drinking,

I am sending a check to Jerome while wishfully weeding.
The unicorns said they hate reading.

I am hoping that poem doesn't make it into "In Mint Condition".

So, OK. I am certainly no "Fan" of Burning Books except, for this one!!! However, make no mistake unless HF motivated this book is "Toast". If you feel strongly, one way or the other, make your voice heard with a nominal donation!!! Otherwise, this book will be "Ashes"!!!!!

Okay, no one put up a dime in order to save it. Now normally I object to the burning of any kind of book as ignorant and objectionable, but in this one unique situation it is required. IMHO So here ya go folks!! How to properly care for your collectible Stephen King copy of "Faithful"!!!

Notice that the book may not make direct contact with your hand or body!!!
