To be honest, don't really remember the ending, but you *must* read it and enjoy the journey. That is your homework. Quit college, quit anime, and work. Read it. NOW!

hehe, ok, you don't have to. :-)

Tommyknockers was also quite good.

Just got back from 3 day trip to blue mountains :D,
twas lots of fun :)

But speaking of authors, i've just recently realised how amazingly good Roald Dahl was. Like seriously his mind was so macabre and brilliant.

I was reading his short stories and they are so freaking awesome and twisted... Though when u read his children stories you can see his twisted mind... But yeah, i think he's an amazing author

I've never read any Dahl before. :-(

I've never been to the Blue Mountains before. :-(

really u never read Roald Dahl?
What sort of childhood did u have sandbar! :O :p

no, he's a good author, check out his short stories, if u like Stephen King, definately read Roald Dahl's adult short stories.


But i guess at least sandybar has the Barossa valley,
and if u drive up for long enough u can hit a large single red piece of rock in the middle of nowhere :p
