by Anonymous

by Stephen King

Happy now?

With love,

by Brian Billick

College football is for those who delight in the misery of the young. College sports are a grotesque mockery of higher education and a stain on the educational institutions of Western civilization. ]]> <![CDATA[Brendan added 'Wandering Stars: An Anthology of Jewish Fantasy and Science Fiction']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/77945906 to: Wandering Stars: An Anthology of Jewish Fantasy and Science Fiction (Paperback) by Jack Dann
