He was a new student though, other than that, 8 people chose twinkle twinkle little star, 4 took jabberwockey, and everyone else had short poems. I chose a last minute thing... I frget what it was though. As I joke I almost went up and said "Smells Like Teen Spirit" by Dave Grohl and The Monkees.

I think the story Black Cat also got made into a part of a movie with Price and another famous horror-actor... I'll have to look up the DVD. I have it lying around here somewhere.

Has anyone ever read "The Cremation of Sam McGee"? It's not exactly horror, but it's a long one, and pretty good too. I had a teacher in Jr. High that knew it all by heart.

I actually did a paper on a comparsion between the Tell tale Heart and the Black Cat, which are two of my favorite short stories of his. And for some reason I really enjoyed the ending to booth, which actually do end similarly.
