Yeah, that scene seemed to come outta nowhere.
Gaiman's writing in his novels is a bit slow, but WRT American Gods I liked the way he tied everything up in the end. Tres cool - I didn't see the twist coming.
Skinny Dip had me laughing my ass off - funny as hell - totally recommend it.
Read through most of Smoke and Mirrors - not nearly as good as I had hoped it would be - Stephen King does the same thing (Everythings Eventual, Skeleton Crew, Four Seasons etc.), but much, much better. Desperation was a good read, though I think that King's earlier works are better, but I still enjoy his writing immensely. Love that creepy, horror stuff - where the fuck he continuously comes up with these scary ideas, I'll never know. Great writer who seems like a cool guy despite being a Sox fan.
Rex, I'm curious as to whether you change your mind about American Gods once you're done with it.
Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi
