Tad Williams' Message Board

Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you've got about a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies -- 'God damn it, you've got to be kind.'
-    Kurt Vonnegut, 1922-2007

Welcome to the message board for tadwilliams.com. All comments are welcome, whether kudos or brickbats. However, please bear in mind that Tad would like this to be a friendly, civil message board, at least in the relations between users. We reserve the right to remove postings, or even ban postings, from anyone who crosses the boundary of reasonable taste. Basically, you can argue vigorously with someone, but watch your language, okay? We have a lot of young readers as well as grown-ups, so please show them some respect.

But the main requirement here is: have fun.

Why would mice need protective padding?

Good grief, I ask a simple question about hair styles and get a page an a half of animal torture that looks like the readers tips section from Serial Killer's Digest, win a dungeon make-over in our free draw.

Mine is so little. I could use more room. All the better, when swinging a cat.

Wow. This is exciting. I hope I win.

I'll pass it along.  It was great to see you, although I didn't get much chance to talk with you.  Curses!  Also, I'm sorry our predatory coffee kept you up late.

Re: DOGBLOG: Last of the Doghicans

i wish coffee tasted as good as it smells.  it's predatory and dangerous no matter what.  i only drink it for medicinal purposes... actually i only have a little bit of coffee with my milk and sugar.

and thanks for the congrats, although i think i'll just let sahi keep those high numbered posts. i get nose bleeds with numbers that high.

Give me a pair of red pumps, and I can conquer the world.
