Actually introducing myself...

Post by smugetsu »

Hey guys, been here for a couple months but I figure I'd say hello officially...

I am big Dune fan, and have been since I read the book a couple years ago. I will be honest right off the bat- I feel like KJA and BH are taking Frank Herbert's creation and dragging it through the mud with nothing but money in mind. KJA is a twat!

Ahem, anyway...I am friends with Trang and Apjak in real life (and yes, they're as ugly as the pictures they post would suggest). I work as a Field Supervisor for a security company based out of Kansas City, MO...the same one that Trang and Apjak used to work for.

I plan to stop by now and again for good opinions and good laughs...see ya.

Welcome Smug. About time you finally introduce yourself. Grab your hooks, hang on tight, and enjoy the ride. Look forward to getting to know you better.

Well you've already seen what most of us are like so....Welcome friend. Welcome.

Hey! Have we ever had an explanation of your user name? OK to ask for one? :)

(Every time I see it, I automatically think Smugetsu Monogatari.... ;) )

Trang is easily.

Attn: Sandchigger
The Etymology of the "Smugetsu" handle is long and varied enough to be legend by now. For a long time he was known as Smurl. Then there was Smuget, like Nougat. 生む月 sounded cool even though it is nonsense, esp. as a name.
I don't think the author should make the reader do that much work - Kevin J. Anderson
We think we've updated 'Dune' for a modern readership without dumbing it down.- Brian Herbert
There’s an unwritten compact between you and the reader. If someone enters a bookstore and sets down hard earned money(energy) for your book, you owe that person some entertainment and as much more as you can give. - Frank Herbert

Welcome - oooo RL Dune buddies. I saw someone join from Calgary a little while ago, can't remember who now, was somewhat hoping that would be someone I could meet one day. The only other Dune fan within a couple hours of me is the beastweshallnotnameinreddeermostunholyofplaces. :(
