ah ok..I do know the show..I think!..did they have to move..or were they thinking of moving their operation to another state?

Joe wrote: "I thoroughly enjoy "Person of Interest" which is my favorite TV series. I never watch reality shows, however, I must say that "Gator Boys" has most definitely grabbed our attention!Tuffy's Heroes"

is Gator Boys the show that has the two brothers who have long beards..one of whom sadly passed away recently? if so..I like that show!! Think the main guy on it is named Troy? always yelling in first season "Shoot em Lizbeth!!!" while hunting gators

I am reading The Seance...the blurbs compare this recent book to my favorite classic writer..Wilkie Collins..and I must say..it is a very well done novel..the writing style is similar to the classic gothic tales and I am enjoying it!..

He was great in Fargo!!

Brinn wrote: "Okay Rick, you convinced me...I ordered the complete series of Firefly...if my second novel doesn't get published this summer, I will lay the blame squarely at your feet...Brinn"

HAHA!! I have confidence your novel will not only be published..but be quite a bestseller!!

also..you will enjoy the show..very rare for me to like a TV show (made prior to 1980 that is!)..Firefly is simply superb!

Reading this book... Really enjoying it! "The President's Vampire". Could have been quite campy but Chris Farnsworth treats the material similar to the classic writers - with wit and history. Quite good!

Firefly was a great show. No idea why it was cancelled except perhaps because it was a bit too original and intelligent a show for today's tv schedule

Welcome all!! And I can say new writers are as welcomed and valued here as veterans!! Same goes for readers like me!

welcome all!! great posts and intro!!!..including Mr. Cash!!

Very good!! Make sure to post all about it when it comes out!!!

I have stopped reading MC. Loved his first few books but seems to have become too complacent as a writer. Each book is like the previous ones- just different names and crimes. I find the indie and small press writers far more cutting edge

I agree!!!REALITY SHOWS are a virus that has been infecting more and more TV stations ..even the Weather Station has reality TV shows!! Sick!!!
