I generally dislike people until I get to know them, so I'm not too quick to hand out compliments. Also, it's tough to evaluate the people over there, one post they seem like an intelligent person, then the next they seem, er, not so.SandChigger wrote:Semi intelligent...not exactly the most complimentary thing you could have written.

I think it's something in the atmosphere over there.
The major component of which is a neurotoxin, created from an essence of brain-deadening mediocrity. It serves to mask the smell of unquenchable greed, the sweaty stink of desperation, and the pure sweet reek of fermenting bullshit.

Thanks for clarifying Chig. For a moment I suspected Jaspers, which still makes absolutely no sense, unless one considers both Jaspers and the neurotoxin to be fungus-related.SandChigger wrote:I think it's something in the atmosphere over there.

BOB IS BACK!!!
Hey, have you noticed that Webdud is back and flogging signed copies of Pail of Dung? I hadn't bothered going to look at his page since he first announced it a while back, but I noticed that CRAZY MARTIAN BOB IS BACK (and still whack, babbling about his collectibles) and he wrote something about $75.00, so I went and had a look and found this:
Webdud is kidding, right? WhoTF would pay that much for a pile of dung that two hacks and a fairly good artist with bad taste in friends have dabbled their names into?
And I though Bob was crazy!

by Brian Herbert and Kevin. J. Anderson
Hardcover: 512 pages
New Price: $75.00
Note: Signed by Herbert, Anderson, and artist Youll

Yeah, that's the post I was talking about.
Ah, good ole Bob. Crazy as a fooking loon.
I discovered on his site where Hyppo had actually submitted some names to him for Cydonia features. She's such a trooper for the cause, ain't she?
* * * BeginEdit: actually, this is pretty funny:
* * * EndEdit
Anyway, I wonder how they divide up that obscene price Webdud is charging for the signed books.
Kevin and Stephen probably use some kind of utensil, but I imagine they just let Brian play in it.

Re: BOB IS BACK!!!
Don't fool yourself bvdk. There are dipshits all over the place, and thanks to marketing and the internet, they are all buying books nowadays. Its places like this that preserve the Herbert Brain Trust as it should be preserved.

they make it seem like they are selling 25 of them to make them such great collectibles.... when in actuality it's because that's about as many interested parties they'd be able to find for a pile of shit like this

What I don't get is why he thinks anyone is going to think this one is going to be worth that. I don't remember what kind of "deal" he had last year for Sadworms (I noticed that you continue to be bad over on WP, btw), but I could almost understand it if he did something similar then, with that book being flogged off, as it was, as THE LAST IN THE SERIES...CHRONOLOGICALLY! But this stinker? Who cares?
I guess we can watch the page and see if the number of copies available slowly goes down.
Remember, it was most likely this ass or someone like him who complained to Brahn and Kevin at a book signing and caused the temporary sphincter clenching over on DN.

More Bob shtuff, from his website:
If you're bored (as I obviously am again today), you really should check out his site:

The Smoking Pyramid page is particularly choice. Maybe it's just me, but I can't see anything in ANY of those pix. (I suspect that what has really been smoking is Bob. )

"Dear Shawn: are you as big a pratt in real life as you seem to be online as Webdruid?"Please contact Shawn with any questions you may have about this book and signing!

I figure it's a priming effect caused by his mention of the "fluff in the cleft" there, but I can't help reading that as Analgraphs.NEWS !!! May 22, 2008
Thanx to Jdub for all the fine 3D anaglyph work he's done through the years and has given me the impetus to get off my butt crack down and learn what tools I need, work with them and try to "master" them. My first 3D Anaglyphs...of Cydonia of course.

(The WP comment was aimed at Baraka Bryan. He been bad last night. )
The more I think about it, I really don't get this at all.
There are only 25 copies, so that's just $1,875.00. About $500 a head if all four are getting a taste...less than that after you take away the price of the books.
I checked the webpage again to make sure they're not donating the proceeds to charity or something like that. Didn't see anything.
Another mystery wrapped in an enigma?

Maybe they have delusions that their signed copies might one day command these type of prices, specifically look at numbers 37, 38, 46, 47!!
I like the one that was signed and sent to Vincent Price (some folks might not know who he is) back stories on books like that are priceless.
