Christopher Moore

I was going to jokingly tell Klund that he should hurry up to the cities this Thursday so he could meet Tad Williams in person at Uncle Hugo's. Maybe he could get one of those books I told him not to read signed.

Then I noticed that Christopher Moore will be at the U of MN bookstore on Friday, March 30, at 7:00 p.m. to discuss "You Suck". Well not as snarky as suggesting an autograph from Tad Williams, it certainly makes much more sense, and has the benefit of being next to a better class of post-reading bar (sorry if that makes me a snob, but I'd rather drink at the U of MN then on Lake Street near Abbott Northwestern). Kevin? Brad? Kyle? Any takers for an outing?

By the way, this tidbit on the U of MN bookstore site is pretty neat:
Signed Copies - Looking for an autographed copy, but can't make the reading? Simply order your book online and we will have the author sign a copy for you.

That sucks. We have tickets to a T-Wovles game. Now the way they are playing I would normally say screw it and go watch Christopher Moore speak.

Unfortunately we promised Mary's nephew that we would take him to the game. So unless I convince Mary to to just take Sam, my chances are slim to none of going.

Damn, I would never let a Wolves game interfere with Christopher Moore. "Oh, I promised Mary's nephew, blah, blah, blah!" Puh-lease. I thought they fused a couple vertebrae together, I didn't realize they completely removed your backbone.

Anyway, I'd love to come up to see him. I'm going to work on getting a babysitter lined up, since I'd never get there if I waited until Michelle is done with work.
