speaking of Romper Room, here is that show's contribution to the gun debate

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. ... The piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.

A "Dubious" reputation is a GOOD thing! Don't you remember Romper Room (may have been before your time)? A DO BEE is good, and a DON'T BEE is bad. Thus a Dubious reputation would be good. All you have to do is avoid a Don'tbeous reputation!

Thanks! I wondered what all that, "DO BEE," stuff was in the Dark Tower II book. I really should be old enough to remember Romper Room, but I can't - oh well.

Apparently it is also the name of a Russel Crowe movie from 1992. Anyone seen it?
Yep. I own it on DVD. It was okay. Probably selling well because of his name.

Kind of a Sid and Nancy type genre with a dark twist.

"Romper Stomper" was a huge success for Russell Crowe, sorta jump started his career in Australia.

His Aussie film that I really like is one called "Proof," also stars Hugo Weaving.

Well, for years I was smart.
I recommend pleasant.

Funny you should have posted that. My mother had just inquired a few minutes ago as to when the book was to be shipped. Apparently she lost the printout with the information on it. Of course that somehow ends up being my fault ::Shrugs:: :p Nice to be able to get it straight from the author himself though. thanks.
And I just now realized how odd of a first post this is... :p

Thanks for the welcome Maggers. It seems like it's a great place to hang out. I've actually been reading the boards for a while now, even some when the old board was going, but never really got around to posting. Looking forward to joining the fun.
