King Stephen






Evening folks.
Back in the early 80's Stephen King wrote a novella called "The Mist". It was one of his favorite themes. SOMETHING goes bad and the people all get together and fight for the good of the group. It is a very successful ploy and it has kept me a "constant reader" from the beginning. I have, to my knowledge, read all of his books except the Tower series..tried and tried again just can't get into them. I have however, read The Stand from cover to cover 21 times so I guess that makes me hard core. It is now being made into a movie to be released in November I believe
I travel down Rte 17 from Augusta to Rockland 3 times a week leaving at 5:45 am. It is a nice ride for the most part, however, like a lot of people I automatic drive so I tend to be more aware of my OUTSIDE conditions. I drove into this one morning and it got my feverish little mind all fired up.
To end this on a reality note...hey the movie may suck but you have Thomas Jane for eye candy..it can't be all bad.

Oi! Dale... what came first....The Mist or The Fog [John Carpenter]? Inquiring minds want to know...ok ok.. I want to know.

Not sure there Junior, I think there was an earlier version of the fog done in the late 70s and that was a remake of a film from the 50s. Then JC did it agin a few years ago I think. When I get time I will Google it and try to find out. Dam good question though.
