I actually bought the book first and from there started coming to the site. Maybe I'm just backwards though. |

I recently took your cook into my english lesson because we needed a private reading book, and she (my english teacher) described it as a good toilet reading book - trust me, from her, that's the greatest praise you can get! 😛 |

Actually, I am waiting for the new book to come out. Alex agreed with me. Since he doesn't really need the money, he is going to give every one that is a member a FREE copy!!!! I couldn't believe it!!!! Thanks Alex!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! P.S. He told me not to tell anyone. Also he will send you a free naked picture of this lady:<a href="http://www.uglypeople.com/voting.php">null</a> |

Oh, I thought we were going to have to forward an email to 10 people, and if they forward it 27 times, then Alex would know and he would forward US an email, that we would have to forward to 1,007 of our closest friends & if they replied to us with their shoe size & favorite brand of chips, then we would all get a free copy. |

Yep. Sorry, it had to be said... and don't let it get you down or discourage you with Maegen and all. You're going to get it all figured out some day and then your language skills will be up to her requirements. 😊 |

Looks like there's something going on with your imagehost. If you have the avatar saved on your computer, you can email it to me and I'll put it on my server. |

And hey, anyone who wants an autographed copy of my book, I'm happy to oblige. Just paypal me $15, and I'll get one in the mail to you.... I'll write whatever you want in it.
Oh, and I've got a few Polish and Dutch editions of the book as well. I think there's a Japanese edition of it, but I've never received copies of that.
The truth is that I've gradually been placing most of the content of the book online. So anyone could read most of it for free. But the great advantage of a book, as has already been pointed out, is that it can be easily read in the bathroom. |

That would include shipping. They cost me about $12 when I bought them, though I think you can get them cheaper now on Amazon. Then add on $3 for shipping, buying the envelope, etc. |

Curses!
You would offer that just after I bought a copy.
I hope you're happy. I am now shaking my fist in traditional old-codger style.
Hmmm, I wonder how much would it cost to ship the book over from Scotland, and then ship it back?

The next one is coming out in April 2006. The working title (which I change repeatedly) is REALITY RULES. It's like a survival guide for a world in which nothing is real anymore. Lots of weirdness in it. |

Just be sure to thank every one of us individually in the preface. In fact, the preface should be bigger than the entire rest of the book.
Better yet, some of us (hint, hint) should have entire pages dedicated to them scattered at random points throughout the book. And we should receive free copies. Signed. With a cash insert. And royalties. In fact, just put our names in place of your own on the cover of the book. Maybe you could be the "Edited By:" guy. I think that after all of our hard work it's the least we could expect.
:cheese: |

It could be interesting having my name in the book - that means I can say I've got my name in 2 books, photo in 1 and a blink-and-miss part in a local movie. I have been busy! :coolsmirk: |
