Should we have a pool to guess on what date someone over there will finally mention Winds? I mean, it's only, you know, the latest book in the McSeries. That came out Tuesday!

You'd think someone might actually ... I don't know ... mention it? Even once?

Paul of Dune was so bad it gave me a seizure that dislocated both of my shoulders and prolapsed my anus.

There IS no book to read, just the mindfarts of a dicktahack.

If those books or associating with Anderson don't embarrass them, nothing will.

Although I think they're all a bunch of putrid fucksticks over at what I'm calling Dumbnovels thanks to you all here (Gawd I love that!), I do think the new site over there looks much better. That old one sucked wrinkled balls.

You saw Byron's post on that, too, huh? ;)

Having a site design that looks like "wrinkled balls" (?!) is one thing, but trading it in for one that looks like someone shat on wrinkled balls and then did a happy sprinkle with gumdrops is another entirely. :P

Way to remember to fix the referral links, Unca Mike.

Let's start the timer to see when he gets to that.

If it wouldn't have been posted here they probably would have never discovered it.

Has Byron mentioned Mike Anderson by name since this "facelift"? It may be that someone at this Cypher (Zero? Cyphylix? What was it, Syfy?) company is now the new webmaster. Mike isn't exactly young, you know. He is Kevin's uncle, after all.
