Why do you ask?

What would you like to know?

[JRC]

this is odd, because there are a lot of really obvious ways to get hold of Ryan.
I can't even think the last time he was on the shizz.

Hey Aaron Burke...what's the matter did you not like what we offered you in trade? I'm sorry but that video game system was really dated and all you had were the paddles, not even the joysticks. We couldn't have given you anymore than we did. Plus nobody even wants to play Leisure Suit Larry anymore, not even me. And I'm sure if you could have unloaded those Mini Boss's CDs somewhere else you would have.

Dude, Leisure Suit Larry is pure retro guilty pleasure, if you can't sell that you've got no customers.

Although, I suppose the dead founder of ZIAS probably has some pretty limited advertising options.

Wow, is this the first "ghost" shizz member?

Reminds me of the old "Ghost Squad" YA book series by EW Hildick, remember those? About the dead teens who talk to their living friend thru his Timex Sinclair? (If anyone can find a decent sized image to post please do, everything I turned up was a thumbnail)

All fun aside, it's pretty sh*tty posing as a dead person when you could've made up a total fake music biz guy just as easily.

Anyway, anyone else have a fav' young adult book series from their childhood?!

...this thread... started somewhere and went somewhere other.

The only books I read more than one of as a child was Animorphs. I'm not a reader. Sadly.

Animorphs were only good for the covers

Funny, I didn't read much YA when I was a kid, but now I read tons of it. One that sticks out is when I was 10 or 11, my mom brought me a book called The Farewell Kid from the library. The main character is a teenage girl who loses her virginity at some point. It gave me a lot to think about at that age. I was probably too young to be reading that, and my mom would be horrified if she knew, but I'm really glad I read it.

The best one is this one:



Doesn't every young lady fantasize about turning into an elephant?

I also dug the "Not Quite Human" books by Seth McEvoy.
I only read 1 or 2, but they played into my youthful--outsider--desire to be a robot.
Perhaps that was just a manifestation of latent schizophrenia, but there was something that just sounded really cool about being an emotionless droid thru middle school.

I never saw the TV movie they made of it. Did anyone here?
Casting looked pretty decent.

There was a similar series . . . about a teen alien girl, that had the same type of story/plot points, but I don't remember the name of it. The only thing I remember was a part where the alien girl decides to die her hair blond to impress her almost-boyfriend, but it comes out green (cuz she's an alien yo) thus making her a pariah & hero to the rest of the students.
