P.S. I happily admit that I'm post-30. I am SOOOOO post-30, 30 looks positively child like!

My shell is so far past 30 that people who were born when I was 30 are now in college. On the other hand, my psyche is just as immature and fun loving as when I was 19 (30 years ago). So, wanna party? I'll bring the Rolling Rock. You bring the pizza with sausage and 'shrooms. (And Jimbow, you find a rib place that has LATE night delivery, because I do get the munchies after 2:00 a.m.).

personally i like to listen to Sevendust's first album when reading conspiracies the dark feel of the album reallly fits the creepiness of the book also Tool aenima goes well with crisscross for me.

You're on, Biggles! I be even olda than you! 'Cept I don't party quite that hardy anymore. Those days (And boy, those were the days! :eek: And boy, there was a lot of 'em! :eek: ) ended 20 or so years ago, but who's counting?

Bring on the pizza with pepperoni and a few black olives, some diet Pepsi, and lots 'o ribs and I'm right there with ya!

LOL!!! We definitely have to have ribs together at GU-4, buddy! If for no other reason than you will finally shut up about it. ROTFLMAO!!!

And if you ever get into Chicago, especially if you get further west than Chicago, let me know.

I was in Orlando just last month, and they have just about any kind of restaurant you could imagine. They've GOT to have a Chicago or KC style rib place with all-night delivery (or at least carry-out), although whether they will deliver to WDW is another question.

Last time I was at WDW, they had a whole section dedicated to restaurants and nightlife, so I think that we can find something.

I'll be in Orlando later this month, so I'll keep an eye out.

I was just wondering, if you do have music in the background, what you readers of RJ are listening to (whilst reading an RJ novel, of course)?

When I'm at home, I have music on pretty much whenever I have my eyes open. If I'm not actively listening, I'll spin old rock favorites, baroque music, or ambient music. But if I've got a new Jack book in my mitts, I've made it a tradition, since CONSPIRACIES, to play the Stones' "Gimme Shelter" before I settle down to read. That, a 6 of Sam Adams, and the book...man, I'm in hog heaven.

Mostly when I read these days, it's while travelling (which I do too much). I have a walkman-type CD-player that also plays MP3s, so I can burn about 150-200 MP3 tracks on disc, hit random play, and not have to listen to the sound of the hotel staff, ice machine, plane engines, etc. Mostly instrumental atmospheric stuff.

I've got some "reading" MP3 discs. Here's the kind of stuff to which I was listening while reading "Criss-Cross" over the Hallowe'en weekend:

Brian Eno - In Dark Trees
Bauhaus - Bela Lugosi's Dead
Charles Ives - Hallowe'en
Butch Thompson - Creepy Feeling
The Barrons' score for "Forbidden Planet"
Holst - "Mars, The Bringer of War"
Ennio Morricone's score for "Terminator 2"
Everclear - Halloween Americana
Magnificent Seventh's Brass Band "In the Sweet Bye and Bye" (from "New Orleans Jazz Funeral")
Ron Grainer's score for "The Omega Man"
Some of the instrumental pieces from The Stones' "Their Satanic Majesties Request". Always seemed very creepy to me.
Gerry Mulligan's tracks from "The Final Programme", also the "Gandharva" LP
The soundtrack to "Performance" - very creepy stuff by Jack Nitzche, Merri Clayton, Ry Cooder, etc.

Just unusual stuff that sets the mood.

I can picture you with the biggest grin on yor face just from that descripition! ENJOY!!!

Why, thank yez, KRW. It's a wicked, sinful world, and that's a fact...but that doesn't mean we can't grab some fun now and again.
