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. - Question:-Which of these books would you prefer? look inside, theres a list?

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) - Question:-POLL: Has ANYONE, ANYWHERE Witnessed LEE IACOCCA & ED MCMAHON in the same place?

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