12. You know we only do it
because we love you.

Not in that real, physical way, but in that distant digital way :)

9. Scariest damn book I have ever read
Unless you want to be truly and awfully petrified I would recommend you go with your instincts and not read it.

:scared: :hug: :scared:

11. Yeah, the less I know about the inner workings of Charles Manson's
mind, the better off I am. :o

17. Its not so much the inner workings of his mind
that make the book scary, but the ease with which he manipulated other's minds and coerced them into such unspeakable things. That and there are a couple of paranormal moments in the book that made me put it down for days at a time.

Check this out: the "Downward Spiral" album by NIN was written in the Tate mansion. When I heard that I couldn't listen to that album for weeks. The imagery that he conveyed from that house into song (lyrically and musically) was WAY too powerful for even my hardened psyche.

:scared:

The most interesting fact from the book: Charles Manson is the only person ever to have been given the death penalty in CA that never killed a single person.

It should be noted that the Beatles were afraid that they couldn't pull off a live performance of songs like that and stopped touring.

Score one for Oasis.
