The Day the Earth Stood Still II: The Evening of the Second Day. A Christmas Movie. Yeah, I can see that. 'Twas the Day after Invasion and all throughout Earth, not a creature was stirring . . .'

First question - really? Seven million dollars to hear what that hair-do has to (ghostly) say? That makes me want to vomit. In these times of economic suckness, I cannot believe someone will pay that, that, gun-totin', moose-lovin' revolting woman to express herself. Did we not hear enough during her kick-booty interviews? For the love of God, make it stop already!! Secondly, and vastly more importantly, Mr Egan, there are people out here who read and love your books. That quote makes me quite sad because it is so true. The research, time, effort, money, blood-sweat-and tears that go into a real authors book is minimized by crap like memoirs of people we did not know existed until 2 or 3 months ago. What a load. I was trying so hard to forget her, why won't she JUST GO AWAY??! Excuse me while I try to get back to my happy place....
