    I really would like to think Leland could never get me with some stupid object but I am not sure I am strong enough.
    I feel he used some magic, too. So people got crazy about those things because they wanted them badly and because he used his power. I think most of them wouldn't have had any business with him without the spell. That's why I am not sure about my reaction.

    Our buddy Leland would have met his match with me then. There are things I'd like to have, but ultimately they are just things.

    Would Mr. Gaunt happen to have a pirate ship in stock? If so, I'd pick that.

    If not, I'm sure there'd be an SK book I'd want...like The Stand S/L...wait, or is it Salem's Lot?

    Oh, surely if it were a King needful thing it would be one of those four or five 1st edition 'Salem's Lot dustjackets.

    If Leland's got some of these laying around I'm pretty much outta luck.

    Good question indeed. I agree a Needful Thing is something you dont need. What I really need is a new oven since mine is broken but I would go to Argos or somewhere for that. I think it would be some Bob Dylan memorbilia, I dont need any as such but i think I could be persuaded. I think he uses hypnosis; Lelenad not Dylan.

    Somehow it's damn hard to imagine you getting crazy about some cup.

    So if Lelant opened a Needful Things shop for DT junkies to be able to control our souls he would need some...
    - fancy china teacup
    - camera
    - ipod
    - drawings
    - personal memories from the past
    - pirate stuff
    - thongs
    - guitar
    - Bob Dylan memorabilia
    so far.

    Hm, it would be a quite cool/strange shop, don't you think?

    Roland would have understood.

    A single round for a Barrett Light 50 sniper rifle (this weapon in the hands of a competent operation has made kills at over a mile and can penetrate thin skinned armoured vehicles).....once I got the bullet I would have to find the weapon, determine the intended target and decide if I was going to actually pull the triger on the target.

    I cannot read this thread because I am on page 400 in NT
    BUT
    I think I have found something that looks like a mistake and I would like you to convince me that it isn't.

    We are right after Nettie's tragical death and Polly is wondering about it:
    "She would not duck this culpability, not let anyone try to talk her out of it (Alan wisely not even tried) but she was not sure she would have changed what she had done. The core of Nettie's madness had been beyond Polly's power to control or alter, apparently, but she had nevertheless spent three happy, productive years in Castle Rock."

    Well as much as I know Alan lost his family (his wife and his kid) 19 months ago.
    So... Alan and Polly were not together at the time she tried to get Nettie out of the mental hospital. Am I right or do I miss something? Do you have any explanation?

    Roland would have understood.

    That's an extremely good question as usual, Letti.
    Like Brice, I don't care about things and I'm having a hard time thinking up something I'd want so badly I'd go to Leland Gaunt to have it.

    Well the residents of the town didn't go to Leland to have something. They visited him because they were curious and they found their needful thing "accidentally".

    You're right but we do know who he is and what he does, so I don't think any of us would get their needful thing from him
    You make a good point here: there's no way I can think of that needful thing because I'd have to come across it in the shop.
