He actually said that? Mwahaahaahaa! I can't believe it! Lets ask Mr Erikson if he'll open a an event selling loads of cheap pirate copies of his books to the Americans who don't have them yet!
Err... Only joking Mr Erikson...

I'm tempted to inform him of my "Song of Ice and Fire" matching blazer and tie collections, but he may keel over dead.

I'm getting bored waiting for A Feast for Crows so I decided to send my friend George some email...
Dear Mr. Martin:
I offer you the opportunity to sign some T-shirts for a fund raiser for my church. My Westeros T-shirt has been so popular on campuses here in the south that I decided to use some of the sales for charity.
The T-shirts are rather simple in design. On the front, I have a golden elephant standing on his hind legs embedded on on red shield with black shading. On the back side is the phrase, "George Bush - King of Westeros."
I knew the shirts would sell, but it wasn't until they started out selling the GW/One Ring shirts, that I figured out that I had a little gold mine in my hands. I've already used some of the money to pay for tickets to Cancun this Spring and when I intern for Senator Sessions this summer I won't be cramped up again in some little dorm room (D.C. is so expensive!)
Anyway, we need an address to send the shirts, and remember it is for a good cause.
Thank you and God Bless!

I'd say if someone was going to write with the CD to suggest that its background sounds to "epic" poems or done in the Shattner stlye. Where he just reads songs to the music.

This is true, and I didn't mean it. I just had to put something else in aside from SE! Which I now realise was a mistake!
*hangs head in eternal shame*
I'm sorry I didn't know what I was thinking!
Still doesn't mean Pratchett is any good!

Try reading small gods.
Not only is truckers one of his very early works (meaning its nowhere NEAR as good as his later ones) but its also supposed to be for kids...
And TP isnt really comparable to SE anyway...

@Snake: I was thinking about giving Terry Goodkind a shout.
A few weeks ago I was injured in one of his Tai Chi videos, but I am willing to settle if he would let me publish my novel Wizards Rule Eight and a Half.
He is a difficult man to reach (probably from all that philosophizing and saving the world stuff), so perhaps you can represent me in this matter. (I've heard your quite good at getting out lots of messages...)

Oh man, I bet he nearly stroked out when he read that!!!
OK, I think I got it, but just in case, can you say the whole thing over again? I wasn't really listening.

*grabs Tiste Simeon and starts slapping*
Thou wanted it, so thou shall get it!
*slaps on*
On topic: Please leave Martin alone or he'll never finish ASoIaF... well, okay seems like he deserves some for making us wait so long...
