Not Even Stephen King...

"Study, Dammit!" - a provocative poster from Stephen's college days - is now on sale, with proceeds going to The Maine Campus and the University of Maine.

I'm a fan of Stephen King's; I'm seeing him tonight.
I think I'd read anything that he decides to write.
First time that I browsed the web ('cause I was feeling bored)
Thought I'd check out Stephen King; I found his Message Board.

Met a lovely group of people there and made some friends,
Who I will impose on for my own (quite selfish) ends;
If, perchance, some one of you who's planning to be there
And has tickets on the floor (I'm breathing thinner air);

If you get the chance to ask him questions and you're stumped,
Please don't ask him where his ideas come from - you'll get jumped.
Tell him that you love his books, admire his great skill.
Say the chance to meet him here tonight is such a thrill...

Then ask him the question that his fans all want to know;
Has he heard the rumors Kevin Youkilis might go
Put on Yankee pinstripes? Does King think that, even he,
Could convey the horror felt by Red Sox' fans like me?

Blogging - Sports vs. Politics

 

Turns out that the rhymes most viewed are those I've done on sports

(If I'm understanding what this Google site reports)

That's been true of other sites; well, really only one...

Back on Steve King's Message Board where I wrote rhymes for fun.

Started threads on government and one to say "Hello";

Started one on Red Sox and (from what the numbers show)

When it comes to politics, most people do not care.

Somehow I'd imagined that was just the case on there.

People go to Stephen's site to read about his books;

See what he's releasing next and find out how it looks.

Didn't want to blather on about this other stuff;

Figured that the Moderator'd surely had enough.

But the same has happened here as happened on his site.

People tend to skip the rhymes on politics I write.

That's okay; the Red Sox stuff is easier to do.

Happy to continue with them if it pleases you.

Blogging - Stephen King's Message Board

2 months I've been blogging now - A new rhyme every day

Bet you've started wishing I would, please, just go away.

As you may have noticed; I've been writing for a site.

Heck, I'm even "tweeting" now.  The future's looking bright.

Just one major drawback; I don't see my other friends

Spidey, Blunthead, Gentle Giant; I will make amends.

Pat and ~Ally~, Cat and Mod? I miss you guys a lot.

All of you on Sai King's Board... Don't think that I've forgot.

Stephen King's Official site is where I first got sick.

Started off there normal - something in my brain went "click"

Soon I started rhyming everything I had to say,

Therefore, don't blame me - It's Stephen King's fault I'm this way.
