So... How does it feel, living in a Stephen King novel?

Does this mean Trump is Randall Flagg?

I hope not, Flagg just gets resurrected over and over again and never goes away forever.

I saw a video yesterday of a line of police cars driving through New Orleans with their lights flashing and a loudspeaker telling everyone to go home or to their hotel.

The first thing I read wasn’t fiction- in the 7th grade I think, I picked up my mom’s copy of a book about the Black Death, because, yanno, both of us were fun like that I guess. It was more of a texto-tainment kind of thing, sticking to the scholarly historical record and documenting the complete devastation of Europe, the collapse of institutions, the descent into hedonism, and the futility of any approach at all because of the ultimate sovereignty of Death.

Fiction-wise, Masque of the Red Death was probably noted 8th grade. Because I stayed a fun kid.

Read The Stand my HS graduation year, shared it with my friends. That’s just how we partied back then.

Were you also a big Cure fan?

In Spain the police are using drones with megaphones to tell people to stay home.

I saw an article today that said something about how cancelling the Olympics is as difficult as just going ahead with them. Well, in Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six the Olympics is the exact vector the bad guys want to use to spread a contagious disease to the entire goddamn world.

And don’t forget Executive Order, with it’s plague manufactured by terrorists, spread in the US.

Does NO ONE else read Robin Cook?

I read a lot of Robin Cook and Stephen King in the mid 80s, probably everything they had written by then. I stopped before 1990 and have only seen some tv series and movies based on Stephen King books since then. Not sure I want to read either author at the moment. Just keeping up with the Coronavirus threads is a full time job.
