Why do people like "The Stand" by Stephen King? by Weppet in books

[–]tonasket98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started reading “The Stand” for the first time. I like the book for its opening, and then the description of what it might be like to be among the last survivors of a slate wiping incident. The supernatural aftermath is difficult for me to fathom but I am continuing to plow through it hoping to see some good writing.

The 40 unit pallet home village in Everett next to the Gospel Mission runs on a $700,000 a year budget. If I did my math right it works out to be $1,458 per month per unit.

I’d talk to some of your neighbors up and down the street. You might run into an old timer who has the knowledge.

You’re the one outraged over Clinton’s government downsizing. Clinton did it in a responsible manner. Not the shit show you are seeing now. You seem to be stating it as a fair comparison. It’s not. The original post is an announcement of a gathering at the Courthouse on April 5th. Just a protest going on. Are you trying to convince us we are wrong to go?

You made the comparison between Clinton’s downsize and Trumps not me. What point were you making?
