and young Terrence Stamp... le sigh
I'm afraid my experience with young Terrence Stamp is solely as Billy Budd, which means less le sigh and more zzzzzzzz thanks to Melville's ability to bring the Platonic ideal of boredom forth into the real world.
No. And yes. It's always sudden.

That's not the point! If you haven't read the book, you don't know! Principle!
Vortex, I agree! :-)
That's why I love you people. Hard to find people who give a damn about books consistently and/or know them.

And you know what's funny (in a semi-tragic sort of way)? I don't recall anyone on the amc boards even mentioning the defacing of the book.
I love this place.

It was funny reading the Jezebel blog because they found the Eurotrash nomads to be Freaky and Threatening
Oh, yeah, there is something freaky about them! I don't believe that Joy is really the "viscount"'s daughter and it totally felt like a grift was in the works to me!
I thought him ripping out the page was funny. Mostly because Joy annoyed me.

Hah! I didn't make or lose quite that much (I was at $8000+ and bet 1/2 that) but that's what happened to me. And if I'd gone with my first instinct I'd have totally won!

I lost it all in Final Jeopardy. Oh, well. Did all of the avatars do the cabbage patch and raise the roof when they got questions right or just the black one?
