I know better, I know better, I know better. Damn it I know better than to read short stories. They are so boring, pointless and worthless. I picked up three volumes of Nightmares and Dreamscapes in a used bookstore for $1 each and now I know why they are in perfect condition because no one could get past the first set. UGH. I was able to get through the first five but even listening to this in the car, I cannot force myself to listen to anymore of this crap. Stephen King writes monster-sized books for a reason because he cannot come to the damn point and even in a short story he rambles to the point of madness about inconsequential details that detract from the story or just have no bearing. I gave up on Stephen King a long time ago and should have stuck to my guns and passed up this great deal. Damn it I knew better!
