Notes and highlights of CHRISTINE by Steven king. I make up great stories about war and power vacuum. Who knows about the taxi cab robot witch and dangerous chemicals like embalming fluid. Like a ghost in the night danse macabre. Never more I say oh poor Lenore! What about more?

Highlight

: Location 5,Riveting . . . shiveringly scary . . . a hell of a good ride! —Playboy

Note : Location 6,Vrooom!

Highlight

: Page 4,Maybe that’s one of the ways you recognize really lonely people . . . they can always think of something neat to do on rainy days. You can always call them up. They’re always home. Fucking always.

Note : Page 4,Dance macabre is true, good to know Arnie was out in a way that was okay with everyone. Spooky though, about the car that runs people over still.

Highlight

: Page 7,Oh my God! my friend Arnie Cunningham cried out suddenly.

Note : Page 7,The suspense is amazing, I can feel it already. What a buzz, what a chill?

Highlight

: Page 8,Arnie had fallen in love with a 1958 Plymouth Fury, one of the long ones with the big fins.

Highlight

: Page 8,Look at her lines, Dennis! Arnie whispered. He was running around the car like a man possessed. His sweaty hair flew and flopped. He tried the back door on the passenger side, and it came open with a scream.

Note : Page 8,Obviously, amazing! What craft

Highlight

: Page 9,The old dude’s eyes gleamed. The angry look on his face was replaced by a furtive gleam in the eye and a certain hungry sneer around the lips. Then a large resplendent shit-eating grin appeared.

Note : Page 9,Alright, what a passage. The thinking is about heat and The stand, when they burn the people in the street and it comes out they are garbage trucks to clean up the mess. These are just high school kids edgy, but still innocent. Love at first sight, clearly too good to be true. What an investment, a surge, an endeavor, stimulus. Way to go!

Highlight

: Page 10,Anyone ever asks you what’s wrong with the world, boys, you tell em it’s three things: Doctors, commies, and nigger radicals. Of the three, commies is the worst, closely followed by doctors. And if they want to know who told you, tell em Roland D. LeBay. Yessir."

Note : Page 10,All true

Highlight

: Page 11,Steer clear of colleges. They’re full of niggerlovers that want to give away the Panama Canal. ‘Think-tanks,’ they call em. ‘Asshole-tanks,’ say I.

Note : Page 11,It is about communism, the people who champion integration want you let those things into the store also want you to work for free. As we see Libertyville's Plymouth is 20years old, rusted and flat. Arnie will spruce it up and have her running in no time. Not this Summer, but if you ease term limits Arnie might have a real chance. Maybe he should try Canada

Highlight

: Page 11,He gazed fondly at the car sitting on its flat tire, its paintjob mellowing rustily in the late afternoon sunlight.

Note : Page 11,The part about The shining that really bothered me was the black guy as hero. It's about aliens though, cars and clocks, watches and glasses. Screens and shields. Possessions

Highlight

: Page 16,They could be almost uncomfortably sharp and probing when something was going on that he was interested in, but now they were distant and dreaming. It’s not a piece of shit at all.

Note : Page 16,Capitalism is about aliens. Arnie is a slave and belongs to Dennis. Americas biggest mistake was abolishing slavery. Now Russia wants to get in on the game. Nice try. Biting satire, grim reality, o' what a master.

Highlight

: Page 30,Has it ever occurred to you, he said abruptly, that parents are nothing but overgrown kids until their children drag them into adulthood? Usually kicking and screaming?

Note : Page 30,He's a good guy, right; however, you can tell he has a real axe to grind for his parents.

Highlight

: Page 31,In the following days that question kept coming at me in different ways, the way I’ve always imagined a fresh grief would.

Note : Page 31,Danse macabre, Master of macabre. Unmasking, unboxing, field, vapor, sputum clearance nit. Capitalism is space like a car in the street, look at your watch. What time is it? Check the odometer, hit the gas!

Highlight

: Page 35,No, he said quietly. You can’t dig it. You might think you can, but you can’t. Not really. But you like me, Dennis— I love you, man, I said. You know that.

Note : Page 35,As you see, Arnie and Dennis are homosexuals

Highlight

: Page 35,Your face isn’t stupid, Arnie, I said. Queer-looking, maybe, but not stupid.

Note : Page 35,Are they lovers?

Highlight

: Page 38,I’d like to know who it was threw that rock, he said softly. Yessir, I’d surely like to know who it was.

Note : Page 38,Of course, LeBay is talking about war. Who started WWII? Throwing rocks starts wars just like Cadmus, founder of Crete.

Highlight

: Page 39,A large plastic bottle was poking out of the top.

Note : Page 39,Right, sap. Sap knows sputum as well as any, perhaps too well. Is the dioxin laden oil can sapping his sputum? His spine and peripheral nervous system. Clearing down to jaw. KGB V. CIA espionage game, spit now draw. Put the money in, now lay it down. Lay your money down just like Jerry does

Highlight

: Page 44,Let’s go for a ride, big guy . . . let’s cruise—

Note : Page 44,Like a fat greasy pimp

Highlight

: Page 44,What your mother leaves you is mostly good hard-headed practical advice—if you cut your toenails twice a month you won’t get so many holes in your socks; put that down, you don’t know where it’s been; eat your carrots, they’re good for you—but it’s from your father that you get the magic, the talismans, the words of power.
