In the Trailer Park: Big Monsters, Big Ships, and Big Cats
Today’s Trailer Park holds a wildly diverse cornucopia of enticements. There’s no common theme amongst these three titles, I just enjoyed the trailers. Hope you do too.
First up, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, by Seth Grahame-Smith and (natch) Jane Austen. This one has been getting a lot of press, and it looks hysterical. I shamefully admit I’ve never read Pride and Prejudice, but I might be tempted now. Zombies make everything better!
Next we have Titanic: The Untold Story by W. Mae Kent. Since Hollywood thought it had made the quintessential Titanny project, I was happy to see someone else look at it from a different angle. This version focuses on some lesser-known passengers, including the ship’s only African-American.
Finally, we have A Lion Called Christian: The True Story of the Remarkable Bond between Two Friends and a Lion by Anthony “Ace” Bourke and John Rendall. This book tells the story of two friends who purchased a lion–yes, a lion–at Harrod’s in the 1960s, and their adventures with the big lovable cat. Now, a word of warning: this trailer had me on the floor in a puddle of tears. This, my friends, will move you. Never doubt the humanity of animals.

Comment away, my little snarkie-pies. But please play nicely. Poopy-pants comments (spam, hate speech) will be flushed down the shitter.

WHAT IS A SNARK?
The Snark is a creature created by Lewis Carroll in his poem "The Hunting of the Snark". To give a proper description of Snarks, one must look no further than Carroll himself, who summed them up in one word: Unimaginable.
But this much we do know: some have feathers, some have whiskers. Snarks sleep a lot, yet they are an ambitious lot -- with very little sense of humor. They love bathing-machines and tend to bring them wherever they go; they are also handy for striking a light. Snarks live on a far-off island, a place filled with chasms and crags, and are constantly on the lookout for Snark-hunters. Their mortal enemies are hope, care, thimbles and forks.

Another ‘different’ Titanic book is Connie Willis’s ‘Passage’, which I think is my favourite of hers. Many interesting smaller details. And, of course, she has a few uncomplimentary things to say about the Movie.

You write very detailed,Pay tribute to you.Couldn’t be written any better. Reading this post reminds me of my old room mate! He always kept talking about this. I will forward this article to him. Pretty sure he will have a good read. Thanks for sharing!
Strange this post is totaly unrelated to what I was searching google for, but it was listed on the first page. I guess your doing something right if Google likes you enough to put you on the first page of a non related search.
Hey, i’m mostly an avid reader of magazines but every now and then I like to sit by my desktop and browse some quality blogs for interesting information. Thank you for making my sandwich and cup of coffee more pleasant!
i see what you did there
Thanks. Greetings from the Speedy DNS
@Markus I get your drift on where you were going there. I often think of my past and use it as a means to analyze where I am and where I want to get to. Where I struggel is balancing it all out. How do you guys balance things out?
