His latest collection of stories, &quot;Just After Sunset,&quot; arrives in bookstores in November, and in a brief, spooky squib of apocalypse like &quot;Graduation Afternoon&quot; or the Lovecraft-inspired epistolary tale &quot;N.&quot;, King reminds us again of his power to unhinge with a single line or image. A master of the storytelling craft, he gets his ghastly fingernails right beneath the skin.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/a.wholelottanothing.org\/2008\/10\/how-to-get-my-nerd-vote.html\" title=\"How to get my nerd vote\">How to get my nerd vote<\/a>: I&#39;ve been thinking lately about a dream candidate for my nerd habits, my nerdy business, and the way I live my nerdy life. Regardless of party affiliation, if you&#39;re running for an office from as small as city council all the way up to president, if you hit on any\/all of these things, you just might get my vote.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Qq8Uc5BFogE\" title=\"Wassup 2008\">Wassup 2008<\/a>: Remember the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=tauYnVE6ykU&amp;feature=related\">Budweiser &quot;Waaazzzzuuuuppp?&quot; commercial<\/a>?

But this cave full of monstrous crystals is located in Mexico, and the crystals themselves are a form of gypsum, one of the most common elements on Earth.

Awesome picture.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sometime between October 23rd and October 25th, I thought this stuff was interesting.
