HAH! YES! The Denial Twist!

If I didn't put that on my list, then I shall have to add it.

Regarding Best Books, I shall have to add Lord of The Silver Bow by David Gemmelll (which I finished this year, but was published 2005) as I found it quite brilliant.

I'd also have to add to my books:

Under The Jolly Roger, by L.A. Meyer

What is it? Third book in the series and they're still really good. (It's probably just the muskets...)

Best Hurricane
Hurricane Katrina
You shouldn't judge a book by it's cover, instead, you should read every single book to see what every book is about before you even come close to judging its viability.

Panic at the Disco! - The Only Difference


Should be:

Panic! At the Disco- The Only Difference Between Martyrdom and Suicide Is Press Coverage


Trust me, I know these things. :wink:

(Btw...I love that song...)

AFI - Rabbits are Roadkill


Should be:
A.F.I.- Rabbits Are Roadkill On Rt. 37


Good song as well.
