Back in college, during my free time, I read Nixon's memoirs which is 1111 pages.

And no, nowadays I can't finish reading most of Trollheart's posts either.

Also, the feel of a copybook page heavy both sides with ink writing, and all the little notes scribbled on the cover. I even remember some of them.

"One day everyone will pay"

"Think they're so smart"

"How much to kill someone?"

and so on.

The little stick figures in pools of red ink with various weapons jammed in them were of course completely unconnected to these.

Hey, can this board be changed to accept reaction emoticons? Would have saved me this post.
