10. If you have an extra year to spare you could read the revised version of the novel.
I don't think King quite beat "War and Peace" for length but he sure gave it the old college try.

11. I'm going to dig up my well-worn hardback copy for my 13-year old.
He's been wanting to read it; now would be the perfect time.

Bonus: it may scare him into actually washing his hands with soap instead of just water and proclaiming them clean.

14. You have to read the novel or watch the TV-movie to understand the ref.
The characters nicknamed the flu virus in the story "Captain Trips."

13. There is this crow hanging around my house all week....
actually, we saw a turkey buzzard land in the alley behind out house Wednesday while we were driving - scared the 115 pound dog in the back seat.
Dreaming about some old lady in Nebraska, too....
