Oh, God, I forgot that one! I think it was either a play of a MOW or something.
I definitely read My Darling, My Hamburger and Pardon Me... He was great.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I don't think I actually remember reading The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man in the Moon Marigolds but wasn't it also a play or something?
It totally was! They did it at Rice.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
My first scene in directing class was from The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in the Moon Marigolds! I love that play, although I suspect it might be a little dated now.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
My high school did that play, back in nineteen seventy something.

Yes, and Paul Newman made it into a movie with Joanne Woodward (he only directed).

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Disquieting news:
Elsewhere, Empire reports that the Stoker clan have sold the film rights to the forthcoming officially approved sequel to Dracula (that's the 1897 novel by Bram). The new book has been written by the latter's great-grandnephew Dacre Stoker, apparently in accordance with notes left by his illustrious ancestor for a second book. Dacre has also had help from award-winning Dracula documentarian and historian Ian Holt, and the title, Dracula: the Undead, also originated with Bram. So it's all as official as official can be. Holt has also written a screenplay with Alexander Galant, and the film should start shooting in June 2009. Speed director Jan de Bont is producing.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
I don't know - anything that has that much official approval is usually doomed.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
The bios of Holt and Galant do nothing to inspire confidence in me.

“Not dead yet!”

Could be because I just woke up from a nap, but all I can see are vampires on buses.
