Hello Vincent. i am in to horror as well.

I think having smaller groups within this forum would be nice. One of the reasons I joined was to broaden my horizons, but I still want to enjoy what I am reading. I have read two of the books of the month, but there were several other books that were voted on that I think I would have enjoyed...

October Horse is was not my favourite "first man in Rome" series. You must read the whole collection if you start it. You will not be sorry. I have not read the Thorn Birds, It is on my long TBR list.

Did anyone watch this? What did you think?

hardback or softback novels? Hardback or my collections, softback for everything else. Pen or pencil? Pencil Paper clip or staple? Paper clips, lots and lots of paper clips! Holding a book in hand or laying it on your desktop? Holding. Having a stack of books on the floor or...

welcome onetwentypm!:) Who are some of the authors you read in historical fiction? Justin91

The orders were that while Caesar and the major part of his army were in Britannia, none but the most urgent communications were to be sent to him; even directives from the Senate had to wait id Portus Itius on the Gallic mainland until Caesar retuned from his second expedition to the island at...

The ring kept me from s;eeping soundly for several weeks. It was not so much the movie itself that was scary, it just got my imagination flowing in a different direction than what it is used to. I watched several movies when I was really young ( around seven) that had an effect on me...

Goodfellas Godfather Trilogy (even part 3...sometimes) Pulp Fiction

Sounds like fun! Yeah, just give us a partial sentence and we will finish the rest...500 words or less. Should it be POV specific, i.e. all of us write 3rd or 1st person, just to get a feal for proper POV use...or anything goes just for fun?

1953 The Old Man and the Sea - Loved it. Read many times 1961 To Kill A Mockingbird - Great story, I love the POV. 1983 The Color Purple - Read after I watched movie - I really liked it. 1986 Lonesome Dove - One of the only Westerns I have read and really liked. 2002 Empire Falls -...

Welcome...great group of folks here!

Hey she's like my mother too!:D I used to love the X Files years ago. Then came the Sopranos, and HBO ruined it. I really like Two and a Half Men, but I see it going down hill fast. Right now I just like South Park and The Family Guy, and Greys Anatomy. As for best of all time, I can not...

The bad thing is, from what we are told, they go directly to heaven if they kill an unbeliever, it's in their book. Oh yeah, there are a few virgins up there if they die while killing the infidels. I know it sounds like I am slamming all Muslims...I am not, I really want to understand what is...

From the bible...not quoted: An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. EXODUS 21:24-25 "Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death." EXODUS 22:19 "He who sacrificeth unto any god, save unto the Lord only, he shall be utterly destroyed." EXODUS 22:20 Those who break...

I realize there have been many thousands killed in the name of God. I do not think christianity teaches to kill anyone. Like I have said before, I am no scholar in any religion...however, is this taken out of context? "Strike off the heads of the disbelievers"; and after making a "wide...

Oh yeah...I keep forgetting about the nutjobs that bomb abortion clinics! Have you seen "Soldiers in the Army of God" documentary on HBO?

I do not remember any Catholics, no mater how small of a group, wanting anyone’s heads for offending the Virgin Mary after the show aired! That would be a funny sight; old ladies with behead Matt Stone signs. Believe me, if this had happened, it would have made the news.

Can there be an Iraq not ran by radical Islamists? I am not a Middle East scholar, nor do I live there, so my opinion is just that. If there is no influence by the outside in Iraq, or more specifically, put Iraq into a hermetically sealed container. Essentially you then would have tribal...

Looking at the pictures of picketing Muslims with signs that read "Behead those who insult Islam" and other colorful phrases on handmade signs made me shiver just a bit. I realize that this is just a handful of the Muslim people, but it seams to me that a handful can sometimes be enough...
