My brother had a dog that sweet as anything, but dumber than a brick.

She was so dumb that if she was holding her tennis ball in her mouth when you went to pour food in her bowl, she couldn't figure out how to eat.

She refused to let go of the ball, and so she'd just keep dipping her head, complete with mouth-laden ball, into the dog bowl and then look confused.

Was it a Lab?

She might've had a little lab in her, but she was sort of a mutt.

Awwwww! I love a dumb dog

I don't remember the title but the house was built on a burial ground, I think.

It wasn't Pet Cemetery, was it? The house wasn't on a burial ground, but the cemetery was spooked or something.

I've read a few of his books - still have yet to read "The Stand." Loved "Christine."

The Shining was a MUCH better book than it was a movie.
It was also when I stopped going to any movie where I'd already read the book, because that movie p*ssed me off so bad.

I don't think so. It's been a l-o-n-g time ago. I don't think I slept for a week.

IT was one of the single most terrifying books I ever read.

WHY on earth did I even read it? IT was about...a Clown.

And I was ALREADY terrified of them. After that book, I knew why.

Pet Sematary (it really was spelled like that, which was one of its problems) was written a long time ago. 1983.

Yeah - that would be like me going to see "Snakes on a Plane". Not gonna happen.

The Talisman was very different from a lot of his stuff, but really, really good.

 

[sm4him]

And 'Salem's Lot was good to, although I can't even remember the premise of it anymore. I think it was the first Stephen King book I ever read.

 

[sm4him]

Needful Things and The Tommyknockers were also pretty good. Don't really remember them anymore either. I should re-read some of that stuff.

My boys found all my old Stephen King books when they were teens, and got interested in him too. They tell me that some of his newer (i.e. the last two decades) stuff is really good so maybe I'll have to give him another chance.
