I was hoping to get a signed copy of the 21st century take on Huckleberry Finn. You could sign it "Mark Thrice."

If you think I can do a better job than the original, you need to buy me an infinite number of typing monkeys and a lot of typewriters and typing paper.

Better? I was thinking "updated." A derivative work no doubt, but I've seen many an entertaining derivative and some as enduring as the original.

I can't afford monkeys (and their upkeep), much less typewriter maintenance and dead trees. How about I ship you a computer with a random word generator?
