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.

Stuart throws lemons at you, make lemonade!

You try that with a pineapple down your windpipe.


Someday will find you.

That's right I throw lemons and you turn it into Lemonade, an overblown charity record, who's that warbling at the back, is that you Bob?

Got to go now, need to put ale in my cake hole.

If you ever get stalked by people wanting to attack you with red currants, make sure you have your tiger with you.

We want to learn how to defend ourselves against pointed sticks, do we? Getting all high and mighty, eh? Fresh fruit not good enough for you eh? Well I'll tell you something my lad. When you're walking home tonight and some great homicidal maniac comes after you with a bunch of loganberries, don't come crying to me!

Try sour cream; it helps with the spice.

Re: DOGBLOG: Underwater Man vs. the Chihuahua of Doom

Talking of spice someone at work just told me a terrible joke, so in my true tradition of punning the dog's blog.

A lady walks into a bar and asks for a double entendre, so the bar tender gave her one.

Apologies in advance, and as per usual, if you have to ask, don't.

A cheese sandwich walks into a bar, and the bartender says, "I'm sorry, we don't serve food here."

(For the less hi-brow folk.)

Re: DOGBLOG: Underwater Man vs. the Chihuahua of Doom

here's a good joke.

  They say if you give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day. But if you teach a man to fish...then he has to get a fishing license. But he doesn't have any money, so he has to get a job and enter the social security system. And he has to file taxes, and you're gonna audit the poor son of a b&%$! because he's not really good at math. You pull the IRS van up to his house and take everything. You take his velvet Elvis and his toothbrush and his p&%$" pump and that all goes up for auction with the burden of proof on you because you forgot to carry the 1. All because you wanted to eat a fish, and you couldn't even cook the fish because you need a permit for an open flame. And then the health department is gonna wanna ask you a bunch of questions about where you're going to dispose of the scales and the guts. This is not a sanitary environment. And ladies and gentleman, if you get sick and tired of it at the end of the day, it's not even legal to kill yourself in this country. You were born free and you got *&$%ed out of half of it, and you wave a flag celebrating that fact...If you wanna fix the pledge of allegiance, put a disclaimer at the end: With liberty and justice for all...must be 18, void where prohibited, some restrictions may apply, not available in all states."

It's a US kinda of joke. The sad thing is, the people Wolfshade described, they live here (in the South). :o/ Jeff Foxworthy is right!
