Wow! Who knew I had so much to say?

Okay, I heard another "audio typo" that I made talking about John Russo's book Return of the Living Dead. (Mike actually busted me on it the night after the interview.) John wrote the original ROTLD '78. He did a horrible novelization of O'Bannon's ROTLD movie in '85. (BAD!) I referred to the '85 novelization as "Night" rather than "Return". Ouch!!!

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

So, I finally got that off my chest. I feel better. On with the show...

[DIOTD2008]

Rob I wouldn't worry about it. Afterall, I agree with you when you said it! LOL

I actually thought you said ROTLD so that shows you how much I was paying attention!

It was a great interview in any event.

[rwfreese]

I feel so sorry for the nurse who is going to lose her job when they don't find you during bed check tonight at the asylum, you crazy fanatic, psycho. I don't care what you say or think. I couldn't hardly whip up a fart let alone give a crap about what you have to say. Go back to your little world Mr. MadmanMarz and leave the rest of us alone.

[madmanmarz1981]

HA HA. Ok Freese...i don't WANT your pity Mr. You just can't handle someone pointing out your mistakes huh?And as for findin out who i am....I have sent you my home address M.r Big-time-famous-writer.All i say is "Bring it on punk!" Marz

[rwfreese]

He's just lucky I ran out of space 'cause I was about to get kinda ugly. I'm okay now, had a few days to calm down. The only thing I feel now is pity for MadmanMarz. He doesn't upset me, he doesn't even amuse me. Somebody should pray for him. But, I'm done with him.

(If I ever find out who you are, Mr. MadmanMarz, you've HAD IT!)

[DIOTD2008]

LOL

You really should have hammered Marz for his misspelling of McClelland.

[rwfreese]

Okay, Mr. Showoff. Oh, oh, look everybody- look how smart MadmanMarz1981 is- he's so cool the way he sits around picking out other people's mistakes and short comings. I guess he wouldn't want me to tell everyone he has fifteen fingers. Ummm... Okay, alright, he doesn't really have fifteen fingers. I just said that to be mean. Thank you for working so hard to point out my inadequacies. Thank you so much for letting the world know I made a mistake. You lousy, mean, hateful motherfu

[madmanmarz1981]

Gottcha agin Freese...You said Sherf. NOT chief McClinin.(sp?)for the ROTLD orig. novel. lol. Marz

[DTMTroy]

now i wanna find this book ROTLD.have to ebay that.

[rwfreese]

I think in the moment- we knew what I meant, but, a goof is a goof and Mike O. busted me on it so I've always felt a little bad for making the mistake. (We both know that anyone who has read both books knew exactly what I meant!)

[rwfreese]

Thanks for the comment, Mike

No, I'm not worried about the mob- I just hate making dumb mistakes. Especially when I'm talking about a book I really enjoyed.

Appreciate your support- I hope there's more of the interview to come.
