John Swartzwelder (The Simpsons) Got His Autograph!
I'm talking about that weird Simpsons writer who people didn't think existed, and then it turned out he did, and since then he's been a complete recluse (read about him here: <!-- m -->http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Swartzwelder<!-- m -->)...I ordered a book by him and he signed it along with all the other ones.
I guess he sells them from his house, and even if he doesn't, they sell for the same price anyway. I'll probably read it later this week. The first few pages were funny, but then I had to get to work

This is very true. I keep meaning to buy Herr Swartzwelder's books, but they're insanely expensive and I refuse to buy a Kindle.

Re: John Swartzwelder (The Simpsons) Got His Autograph!
I discussed this with a fellating lover the other day. I mentioned about how much nicer a shelf of books looks than some gay little tablet thing.
"You can't carry a shelf of books around with you though can you?" they said.
"What the hell would I want to do that for?" was my reply
I understand having all your music with you at all times, but books are a little different. You can't read a book while doing pretty much anything else. If you're going somewhere and manage to read more books than you could have possibly carried, what the fuck did you go somewhere for? Just stay home and read.

I like my Kindle. I won't get rid of every book I own, but when possible I will find Kindle versions of new books.

i really cant stand that argument. "oh well i cant carry 200 books around with me, but i can carry them in my kindle." to which i say
1) why do you need to carry 200 books around, and
2) you could carry 200 books with you if you weren't a bashful little sexy leopard elevator with no lower body strength but a lot of repressed physical anxiety
don't be a little sexy leopard elevator. carry 200 books

Also if you lose one book, you've only lost one book. You lose your Kindle and that's something else entirely. Fuck that noise, says I.

Re: John Swartzwelder (The Simpsons) Got His Autograph!
I realize the topic has trailed off from the excitement of my online book purchases, but I just re-read the following and it strikes me as worth relaying here:
"According to Matt Groening, Swartzwelder used to write episodes while sitting in a booth at a cawfee shop "drinking copious amounts of cawfee and smoking endless cigarettes". When California passed an anti-smoking law, Swartzwelder bought the diner booth and installed it in his house, allowing him to continue his process in peace"
