My next entry is the awesome Pet Sematary 30th Anniversary Edition, that arrived on Christmas Eve and was delivered by the postman dressed as Santa Claus.

I mean seriously, how cool is that?

A truly fantastic Christmas delivery. Can't wait to get my e-mail from Camelot books, confirming they have their copies.

Sweet! Another #1. (Maybe I'll get another #1, too; though I didn't ask for matching #s). Great addition--bet it looks great along with your Christine.
