Worry not, Mudboy: (1) He's already got my book (or I would have heard otherwise) and (2) no one could tell if you were serious about parting with a SIGNED copy of that book anyway. That is TOTALLY generous of you.

"...no one could tell if you were serious"

LOL...I'm always serious, 'cept fer when I'm kiddin'...MUD

OMG...I completely forgot to come back and thank you guys! So: Thank you thank you thank you! Yes, FTH, I got your book and I think it's a great children's book. I'm definitely keeping it in my library for when I have kids (assuming I ever get a date again between now and my eventual demise).

Mudboy: Don't worry about being slow. Sometimes I've been that slow myself. And sending a book to me late is still 100% better than not getting the delivery EVER. Sometime last year I asked NYC Freepers if one of them could buy a copy of the New York Post (it was their special 200th Anniversary issue), and offered to pay and everything. (The paper's only a quarter, and probably wouldn't cost more that $1.50 to mail.) So one Freeper - whose name I have thankfully forgotten, otherwise I'd still be tweaking them in threads to this day - sent me freepmail saying "Hey, I've got two copies here already. I'll send you one tonight! My treat!" I never heard from him/her again, either on FR or via the USPS. And I had been looking forward to that issue for almost a year. Grrrr....
