Maine doesn't require a strong police force because there's virtually zero crime here. It's a utopian paradise, much like the bordering nation of Canada.

Not the police that are mean, just the prison guards.

In Steven King's mind, Maine is full of psychopaths.

Frown: Made the mistake of purchasing Aquafresh extreme clean toothpaste. Stuff tastes like Vick's vapor rub with a hint of orange. Blech.

See, you have to go all the way back to the 1930s to find crime in Maine!

Stephen King rules. He was the speaker at my college graduation (which was also his alma mater). He came into Wal-Mart a few times when I worked there. Cool guy, the average person wouldn't recognize him. His house (in Bangor, ME) is awesome.

I also saw George Bush I in Wal-Mart once, of all people.

Sort of on topic, is anyone else excited about Under The Dome? I wanted to have read the book before the series airs, but I don't think I'm gonna make it as I'm not even halfway through it yet. Oh well. As long as it's better than that godawful Desperation movie (the absolute nadir of King adaptations IMO), I'll be happy.
I'm not a glitch, I just have pixlexia.

The book is great - is there a miniseries or something?
