    SO, which two books do you think i should choose? im used to reading girly books like pretty little liars and stuff, lol. so i have no idea on what book i should choose. help!!(:

    Answer:-I would go with Diary of Anne Frank and Ender's Game. Both are really good, Ender's Game is one of my all time favourite and since most of the books in the fiction list seem to be sci-fi/fantasy it is a good book to get into the sci-fi genre. It is like light sci-fi, but really good.

    Answer:-Lord of the Flies, great book. I love reading about the boys and how they would deal with things when civilization isn't there for them. Also if it's for school it's one of the easiest books to write reports on because there's so much symbolism in it.

ed lee

  • Question:-Thurston Moore and Lee Ranaldo vs Jonny Greenwood and Ed O'Brien, which is you favorite?
    I personally like Jonny and Ed, but Thurston and Lee are pretty awesome too.

    Answer:-Without question, Thurston and Lee.
  • Question:-Should Ed Lee run for the mayor of San Francisco and would you vote for him?


    Answer:-He's done a pretty good job as interim, and seems to have support from both Republicans and Democrats. I'd have to see who is also running before I'd commit to voting for him.
  • Question:-Horror/Adult Fiction great books?(like Ed lee, Poppy Z. Brite, Jack Ketchum's novels)?
    My favorite authors are Ed Lee, Poppy Z. Brite and Jack Ketchum. I've read every single book they have published and I'm a little scared to venture onto other authors that are not like them.(since I'm buying the books, I want to make sure I will enjoy them) Anyone know of any other authors like these three?

    Answer:-You will have to copy and paste in the link below, because I am still too new to Yahoo Answers to post live links, but it is a website dedicated to keeping track of the type of fiction that you are interested in. You will find yearly lists of the 'best' horror fictions written, and you should be able to find some other works by the writers that you like to read.
  • Question:-What are the lyrics to Lee Brice's song "Redneck-ed?"?
    I can't find these lyrics anywhere.

    Answer:-Here they are:
    Well hello, Boogie Palace
    I'm sittin' here alone
    Listening to the music
    Of electric saxophones

    Now, there ain't no sexy dresses
    And there ain't no beehive hair
    Just boys who look like girls
    Who look like boys, who look like Cher

    refrain:
    I'm just a redneck In a Rock 'n' Roll bar
    I miss the fiddle And a steel guitar
    They're starin' at me
    Like a bug in a jar
    I'm just a redneck I
    n a Rock 'n' Roll bar

    I stopped in here to have a beer
    To ask some gal to dance
    But, I been waitin' patient now
    And I ain't had the chance
    'Cause they ain't played any walzes
    Nothing like a Texas swing
    And with no belly rubbin' music
    How in the hell can I do my thing?

    refrain

    Well goodbye, Boogie Palace
    I'm a gettin' outta here
    Back to Country music
    And back to Lone Star beer
    Where the women look like women
    And they dress so you can tell
    And the men are good ol' boys
    Just drinkin' beer and raisin' hell

    refrain (x3)

    http://www.savetheplanetprotest.com/protest.htm

    Does he realize that the first world populations are declining? he should take this up with the third world.

    What a creep!

    Answer:-All three, plus Al Gore since he was such an inspiration for Lee.

    You forgot to mention those nutties Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow.

    I blame all of them for riling up the libs and causing them to go bananas.
