it's his usual mix of great story-telling, did-he-really-die suspense, and his take on science.

Anyone ever read "Young Goodman Brown?"
by hartstrings inin my college english comp class i just wrote up a short reaction to the story "young goodman brown".

Is anyone watching PrimeTime?...
by hartstrings inthe story of the woman who escaped from her polygamist husband.
the way that community treats her and hides from the media reminds me of how jws respond to dfed and the media.
it is very hard to watch because i can easily replace a couple words and see a jw man or woman defending their lifestyle.
