My co-worker came over and said, "Do you know who Ray Bradbury is?"
I stared at her for a few seconds and deadpanned, "No, I have no idea who Ray Bradbury is."
She claimed there were people who didn't know who he was. I did not believe her.
Then she asked two other co-workers. Their answers? "Nope" and "No, should I?"
The only Narnia movie I've seen is the first one, so I have no clue who the actors are in the others.
The quiz thingy won't let me past the first question.
I got 8 out of 10. I missed the first one and the Narnia one.
Sad to hear about Bradbury.
Also, I now kind of want a thread (I kid) or some place where P-C can read GoT and post his reactions, and we can comment on it.

I got 10 out of 10 in the quiz.
I Could Not Deal With The Fact That Every First Line In That Quiz Was Formatted Like This.

"The Homecoming", From Dust Returned (which is about the family in "The Homecoming", and Something Wicked This Way Comes. Those are my recommendations.
(Did anyone have a bet with themselves as to how long it would take me to make that sort of post? Anyone?)
I think my first encounter with Bradbury was the October Country collection. Man, there was some messed-up stuff in there.
Oh, and:
It's big, it's broad, it's broad, it's bright,
It fills the sky of All Hallow's Night
The strangest sight you've ever seen,
The monster tree on Halloween.
