here is a trip down memory lane for the brits.the beano was my favorite comic,(what was yours.)
The comic first appeared in 1938 and it has continued weekly ever since. As of 2007, it has published over 3000 issues.
Its characters have become known to generations of British children, including Dennis the Menace, Minnie the Minx, and The Bash Street Kids. Earlier generations will remember other notable characters which have been phased out, such as Lord Snooty and Biffo.

As the Space Age Lodge now appears. Google it for some wacky pics of its inside. There is now a large UFO sitting on top of the place and the lobby is...well, look for yourself when you google it. It's a regular riot. Hummm, I wonder if my wife would like to stay there on our wedding anniversary????

This clip sums up the history of King's work made into films thus far.
Stephen King is my favorite author, and I love reading anything I can find about him, here is some trivia I thought would be of interest to anyone who appreciates this master of horror.
He once revealed that he is suffering from macular degeneration, a currently incurable condition which will most likely lead to blindness.
His estimated annual salary is $40 million.
He created his pseudonym Richard Bachman by reading a novel by Donald E. Westlake, whose pseudonym is Richard Stark, while listening to Bachman-Turner Overdrive. And much like Hitchock, he likes to have cameos in his movies.
He scored in the 1300s on the SAT.
He wrote "The Running Man", a 304 page novel, in only ten days.
His favorite personal horror movie is Tourist Trap (1979), and his favorite film is Of Unknown Origin (1983)
He is an avid Red Sox fan. Before the Sox won the 2004 World Series, he said he wanted his tombstone epitaph to be a single sock and the line "Not In My Lifetime, Not In Yours, Either."
He is the most successful American writer in history.
He often listens to hard rock music during the time he writes to get inspired and also plays in a rock band.
A recovering alcoholic, he wrote in his book "On Writing" that he was drunk virtually the whole time of writing the book "Cujo" and to this day barely remembers writing any of it.
In the 1980's he was battling a cocaine addiction. At one time his wife, Tabitha, organized a group of family and friends and confronted him. She dumped his trashcan onto the floor, which included beer cans, cigarette butts, cough and cold medicines and various drug paraphernalia. Her message to him was "Get help or get out. We love you, but we don't want to witness your suicide." He got help and was able to become clean and sober.
And finally, on playing the role of Jordy Verrill in Creepshow he said, "If I had written it for myself, I would have put in at least one sex scene!"

Michael Landon once appeared on Hullabaloo (a short-lived NBC ripoff of ABC's Shindig) and sang You Were On My Mind--and here's the proof. Brace yourselves. This is not pleasant.

One of my heroes! In 1948 Alfred Mosher Butts, an unemployed architect, invented the greatest word game in the history of the world: Scrabble Brand Crossword Game. He named it Criss-Cross Words and didn't make much money from it. He sold the rights to a family called the Brunots who renamed the game Scrabble and marketed it from their home. It got plenty of rave reviews in the early 1950s. Demand for Scrabble became so great that the Brunots could not keep pace with the orders. They in turn sold the rights to Scrabble to a manufacturer. Over the years Scrabble's ownership has passed through several companies. Hasbro presently owns the North American trademark name of Scrabble. Each year millions of games are sold and hundreds of tournaments are held under the aegis of the National Scrabble Association. (Yours truly is an expert ranked player who directs an official NSA club in Canada. I can often be spotted officiating major Scrabble events. Look for me at the 2008 U.S. Nationals in Orlando in July!)
