   A friend of mine thinks ownership rights should end when you die. I   
   asked him why Stephen King's family should have lost his rights if that

   It's the show 'Defiling Gravity' would be if DG had more regulars,   
   fewer abortions, worse writers, and no budget for lighting.   
   Remember, you can't spell "disgust" without SGU!
