Sorry to burst your bubble, PJ-Comix. DUFUS was funny for a while, but now it just seems repetitive and old. By the time your book gets published, if it ever does, this stuff will be way out of date. No way is anyone paying $$ to buy a book of hysterical, outdated rantings when they can find it all for free on the internet.

Sorry to burst your bubble but the DUFUs are more popular than ever judging by the # of views for each edition which has increased dramatically. Also by your reasoning, Ted White's Making of a President (1960) book should have been a flop because by the time it was published that election was already over for months. The fact is it was a best seller back then and is STILL selling today. I plan to ADD stuff to a DUFU book to put it in historical context. Also I plan revolutionary new uses of the CD-ROM (or DVD) to supplement the book. Such additons will have ALL NEW material. So while folks can get the DUFUs for free on the Web, the book will have TONS of additional material like color comix and maybe even performance skits on the DVD.

I think you ROCK!

It's not the DUFUS that are losing it's newness, it's that our material is on a merry-go-round and round.

But, it's still fun!

I'm hughly entertained.

Second City does DUmmie FUnnies. It has possibilities. The NRFPTP does commercials for the ad campaign.
Bill Murray's character from Caddy Shack as Will Pitt.

I never tire of DUFUs!!!!

But I guess you have to fix up today's evening post -- that must take the bulk of your time. Those guys have the filthiest mouths -- a sign of their self-professed superior intellect no doubt.

I'll buy the book. This stuff is classic and will never be outdated. It will always be funny. I read everything I can find on the 2000 election even though its 4 years ago. I am fascinated with it. The reaction of the DUmmies to this election is the same. Fascinating. Keep up the good work. We love it!
