Some of you may remember reading that my favorite author is Stephen King. I just got done reading an article about him from the SundayTimes and found the following:
...That’s the desk that King sits at every day, and it is where he writes. Right now he’s writing a book called Joyland, about an amusement park serial killer. Below the window is a patch of well-fenced land, with an enormous African spurred tortoise nosing around in it, like a monstrous ambulatory rock.
and:
...And the lifetime achievement awards? “It makes them happy to give they to me. And they go out in the shed, but the people don’t know that.†Then Tabby King turns up to tell us that it is time for dinner, and, she adds, back at the big house the gargantuan African Spurred Tortoise had just been discovered trying to rape a rock.â€
Wow! I never knew that he owned a tort! So it got me wondering - what other celebrities own torts? Does anyone know?
Here's the original article...
