Super interesting history and a tie between Philly and SF I did not know about. But Iโ€™m renaming this article to โ€œHow a Chester, PA built ship was sunk during San Franciscoโ€™s worst maritime disaster at Mile Rocksโ€ #Philly #Philadelphia #SanFrancisco #MileRocks

Day 575
=======
It's a glorious day when I get to take the next step in my multi-year Stephen King journey.

Today I reach the ninth book in the grand plan: Cujo!

I believe this is also one of the very few SK books that I've not read before. I saw the movie as a kid, but it didn't leave much of an impression and I recall little about it.

Now, turning to page 1. Good boy!

@AkkalonAS me too! I score a lotta stuff on Kindle when prices drop, plus there's a wealth of public domain stuff
Every time I rewatch #Carrie I discover or appreciate something new about the film #horror #stephenking #depalma

Do you want The Thing in real life? Because this is how you get The Thing in real life.

Scientists woke up a 46,000-year-old roundworm from Siberian permafrost

The animal is a previously unknown species that may help researchers unlock secrets of surviving harsh environments.

@AkkalonAS I skew towards older reads since newer books are often either more costly or only available in hardcover; older stuff is cheaper used!

First movie: Monster in the 1010Closet (1986) starring Paul Dooley, Paul Walker, John Carradine, and Henry Gibson.

@lunalein @bookstodon someone once left a copy of da Vinci code in our office kitchen; I tried to read a page after taking it but abandoned ship immediately
@InayaShujaat Thanks for the Spoutible rec-checking it out now!
