    I'll be trying to update the front page every Tuesday with an interesting Stephen King related video and a Stephen King book that ties in.
    This week it's: The Eyes of the Dragon
    Check it out:

    Okay, I'll bite. Other than physically typing/editing my url, how do I get to the Home Page with the new software? I don't see a button any more . . .

    Good question.

    I think making the banner a link is a good start. I can figure out how to put a tab up there for it or something when I get done with other stuff.

    Considering the fact that I have Palaver bookmarked, it's good to have a link to the home page! Thanks!

    Coincidently (really!) I re-read Eyes of the Dragon this week; don't remember when the first time was, I'd guess 10 years ago or so. It's great that I read so many of King's books so long ago that I don't remember much about them, so it's like a first read all over again. Here's a photo of my black S/L, #7. The little slip of paper with the #7 was in the book when I bought it, assuming it was original, not much else reason for it to be in there. Anybody else's copy have it?

    I got my copy in the original lottery from Philtrum Press (#350) but no slip of paper.

    Hmmm, I love a good mystery! Wonder why it would be in there then. Paper also looks 20 years old, and I think the number is a stamp. Curious.

    John, how long have you been collecting exactly? The original lottery for this book was, what, around 1983 sometime? I was a junior in high school!

    Sorry, I appreciate the effort and thought, I really do, but the "Review"-type video's are kinda lame. Trailers and such OK, but IMO leave those reviews on Youtube.

    The "Book of the Week" pics are great!!! (I LOVE that Skeleton Crew) and keep 'em coming!!!!! The donation wall should be a wee bit bigger to highlight contributors like Sai King, Ms Mod, Ned Dameron, Mike Whelan, etc.
    I would think it gives the site a little more "panache" and validity that they contribute here. But hey, what do I know???? LOL

    I know some of the reviews are lame-that's kinda the point. Not every book has an interesting trailer, or even a high quality homemade movie. Just trying to interject 30 seconds of humor. Thanks for the feedback. As for the donation wall, click on it to be taken to a rater large version-easily read.

    That 'Stephen King" widget is kinda cool. The Haven fund one runs really well, too. You're getting pretty darn good with this stuff, Boss!!!!!!!!!!
