I recently started reading The Stand after gorging on every other Dark Tower tie-in book I could find. It's also the *firework sounds* DIRECTORS CUT EXTENDED EDITION so it clocks in at about ~1500 pages. I believe in you, Drew. 2016 is the year we can ask the uninitiated "What?! You haven't read The freaking Stand?

"I'm STILL at the opera with your family!"

Word O.K. is definitely worth a spin. I like this album a lot but I think I prefer Kool AD's laid back stream-of-consciousness type raps. Very mellow, especially in comparison to some of Heems' stuff.

Nailed it with the Billy Bumbler! I would slap someone in front of they own mama for a sidekick like Oy.
