Writer's Block: Book review

I think banning books is a moronic idea. To me, it's akin to burning books.
We do not live in the Middle Ages. We live in a modern time. We should not be acting like heathens and burning and banning books. It makes us look like we do not have the brains to think for ourselves.

I might declare that I will never allow the Twilight series in my house (I can so see Madi sneaking those across the thresh hold, just because she's "denied" them, LOL), but I would never attempt to really keep anyone from reading what they wanted.

I dealt with that when I was 19, and living with the DNA Donor. She and her husband threw away over $1,000 worth (used prices, BTW, not new) of romance novels because there was premarital sex in it. A couple of those books were purchased by my siblings, and to this day, I'm still on the hunt for them because of they hold sentimental value to me.

LOL! I think the sister trip trumps the NKOTB trip. At least you're chill about it :P
And meeting people that you've only known online rocks too (done that a few times :))

i've met tons of ppl irl that i've talked to online.
that came out awkward, but i think you know what i meant.

but we know two of them from the cruise before, and one from our first meet and greet concert. on and theres another one i forgot to mention that we knew from online, and met irl at the july nk concert.. wait.. 2 of them.

i just hop the fans are fucking retarded about it, like they seem to be on twitter

I think they'll be smarter IRL than they are online. At least one would hope so, because, ugh, being that retarded IRL means there is no hope for the world!
