    I am sorry that you are not enthralled by fascinating and well-written things

    maybe you should see a doctor?

    I typed this post with one hand (I am eating a banana)

    If i am fascinated with a book I am probably also enthralled by it.

    The Last Question is the best short story.

    There was a car chase in one of his books

    Some crazy hover car chase on Aurora or Solaria or something, where robots were chasing them I think

    It has been many years since I last read the Robot series

    so my english class has to write and perform a play next year, and because I have the most thespian experience and because I don't trust any of the other scrubs in my class to write a good play (this year's was terrible), I am brainstorming by myself
    anyway, here are my ideas so far. tell me which ones you think are good (all of them):


    Ron Paul becomes god-king of the United States

    Like Cats except the cats represent political ideologies

    Some people trapped in an elevator together reflect upon their lives (sort of like No Exit but less existentialist)

    A man is searching for a magic ring that only works for the pure of heart, so he embarks upon a rigorous regimen of self-improvement, but then it turns out the magic was within him all along (this is actually ryan north's idea)

    you mean, "the best ideas I've ever read"

    it's okay, I also confuse those two phrases a lot

    The critical flaw in this is that you obviously aren't popular, nor do you have any friends, so it doesn't matter even if you do come up with any ideas that are better than the terrible ones you have now. No one will perform your play, Randall underscore Flagg.

    I've heard a CD of theirs. It was pretty good. I've just never seen them, so I didn't recognize the bloke.

    rumor has it that he passed away while writing a scene where Keanu Reeves is surfing along the coast to catch up with the bad guys, who are in a helicopter.
