Dude, you're suppose to watch the thingie.

But, okay, I'll fix that.

The YouTube link appeared . . . lazscott May 31 2008, 00:08:50 UTC

after I submitted my comment. Weird.

Sounds fun (why yes, my idea of summer fun at the pool is floating with bits partially submerged and a book in hand).

silk_noir May 31 2008, 00:50:34 UTC

That's all the best people's idea. By our leisure ye shall know us.

You're 1 for 2 now LOL ;-)

But the lobby had more room! So it all worked out. ;P

I want to know, if the place is so inhospitable, how'd they get there in the first place?

Guess I'll need to read the book. ;)

silk_noir May 31 2008, 12:14:33 UTC

Proof that a hook works. ;D

It did. In the meantime, the allied libraries of south-central Wisconsin have two of his books, and I fired off a request for the first one (in order of publishing), Crystal Rain.

I very stupidly did not pick up Crystal Rain at WisCon--it was right there--but I stupidly thought I could get it at home after next paycheck (I didn't purchase any books at all). I was so wrong. Thank goodness for Amazon.

(And people may ask "Why are you so excited about an author you haven't read?" Dude,it's complex.)
