rockstar, remember when Eminem first came out, and GLAAD was protesting against him, saying he was homophobic because of his lyrics? That's like hating, being disgusted of, or even fearing homosexuals and/or bisexuals like myself.

Go to your local library and if they don't have it, try asking for an "inter-library loan slip." That's how I got my copy. The library borrows the book from another library and you get to check it out.

I'de really like to read Tommy's Tale, but due to the content, I'de have to keep it away from mummy's prying eyes. I think the story sounds really interesting. And about it being an indirect "biography" of Alan, I doubt it, but they say many writers throw aspects of themselves into thier characters, so that could be it.

Anywho, I'm positive that he was the narrator for Animal Planets "African Safari" Why? Cause I saw his interview on the X2 website, and the narrator's voice was dead on. I didn't find his credit on his IMDB page, and if it isn't him.. (which I doubt) I had hell of a good time listening to the narrator say "zebra"

Sorta sounded like Zay-brau. :love

What I really liked about it was that I listened to a Scottish guy with a sexy accent talking about lions and hippos and elephants for an hour...

Ah... Alan, you just gotta love his brogue --> or is that only associated with Irish people?

MMM...life sized poster...Need one now! Maybe you can special order one or something, or pint out a small pic and bring it to a print shop. They sometimes will blow things up, very handy indeed.
