I'm so stupid, I signed up and got the Zot.

Thanks for buying my book!

I'm trying to get the other books into publication.

Most recent change is that now folks can request my book at their local bookstore, and the bookstore can discover they won't lose money by ordering it.

Hopefully, my bootstrap theory will start working just anytime now...

(I wasn't offended, but I gotta go -- it's storming again!)

You sure get losers for mayor!

Yeah, and then they go into politics. ;-)

If you saw this place, you would have no doubt that a monster bookworm lives here. It's not toys or clothes all over the house, it's books, and I get to them all eventually.

What other stuff have you written?

Good luck with that storm.

So what then is normal? Normal is harboring the delusion that the world makes sense, and that you will reap an ultimate reward for good behavior. It's actually a useful delusion as it is the only thing that leads to happiness, but it's really quite weird, ya know?

That is exactly where I am.

LOL - that's a good one.

Unfortunately no, there seems to be some strange territorial aggression thing going on.

Oh, yeah, that's right. Wolves are very territorial. Gee, I'm sorry about your affliction.

I'm just going to check and see when's the next full moon.

Nope...I have DSL, so lay 'em on me!

Yes, we cannot leave without you and your larder!

I don't know what everyone is going on about....I often post and have to refresh a couple of times before it shows up. It's been happening for over a year, I would say.

All of a sudden everyone else seems to be noticing it. Hmm.

That's because last Sunday, we couldn't post at all, and couldn't even get into FR. Then when we finally could, it would be 45 minutes or more between the time you posted to the time it showed up. Or it would give some odd number like Post number 33587 out of 33582. So we complained. It's much better today!

Nope. Stole it. Stole it before I found the secret to not having to steal it.

Oh, now you make that change. ;-)

Personally, I think a catcus would have made for a much better-and needless to say, unique-team logo, but that's just me.

:7)

-good times, G.J.P. (Jr.)

They're running "The Joke Show"-taped last year in Minnesota-on 820(WNYC) right now.

Liberal humor...

(Audible groan.)

It's times like these that I wish I still owned a television set.

"What other stuff have you written? "

You mean besides the hundreds of poems with which I have cluttered up Free Republic? Well...

Outlandish! ... Fairhome, a world isolated in space and time, where women rule, and men -- there are none! Just a poor but useful substitute... (You know about this.)

The Day of Magic Rain ... Change has come to Fairhome. But is the Race of Women ready to rejoin the Human Race? ... (This is still unpulished, the sequel to above.)

Action! ... A tale that mind-bendingly mixes everyday reality with science fictional unreality, as the Future comes to the Present! ... (This is also unpublished, but both are written!)

And a couple of short stories ...At the AIport

and Your Weight and Fortune.

Another team logo choice that I never quite grasped was the mascot for the U. of Arizona.

Wouldn't devils feel more comfortable in Nevada?

:))
