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.

Re: QM - Bouncing&Bragging Room

My day has been crossed off -- for once, I ran out of day before I ran out of items on my to-do list.

Going home!


Someday will find you.

Re: QM - Bouncing&Bragging Room

I do hope this lasts for a while. We do seem to post more after smarchmoots - I know I do, because I miss everyone. So I think we should have more moots.
We should get paid for going to Smarchmoots. *nodnod*


I think we've just proven that our greatest power is silliness!

Re: QM - Bouncing&Bragging Room

Meet-up? What meet-up? I'm still shaking off the effects of the cryogenic freeze (ok, ok, I was actually stuck in the basement of the "house" simulation) - I wish! I will have to look it up.

Veggie Lasagna (using Farmer's Market vegetables...huzzah Em) and Gimlets for dinner. I made a ton of lasagna, so in a few minutes (it's getting bubbly) I'll be sharing it around the Mint....

Re: QM - Bouncing&Bragging Room

Cyenti - the World Fantasy Convention will be held in San Jose, CA, over the last weekend in October. Many Smarchy types will be in attendance.

There's a separate thread for it over there somewhere *points in a vague direction*

Lasagne!?! *perks*


Someday will find you.

Re: QM - Bouncing&Bragging Room

Thanks Em - I used the handy Search feature, lest someone throws a "let me f&*%*%* search for you" link that way. How cool - it would be a long shot. I have issues leaving the country of Texas.

I also have issues leaving this the Mint - the drinks here are faaaaabulous!

Re: QM - Bouncing&Bragging Room

Careful of the Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster. I understand it is like having your brains smashed out with a slice of lemon wrapped round a large gold brick.

We always have duck tape on hand to tape your head back together if you wish to partake.

No worries.


Someday will find you.

Re: QM - Bouncing&Bragging Room

Thanks, but I'll stick with the nice-and-simple "Jagged Thorn with Angry Howler Blood Floater". Goes down super easy.

"Quiller Drink Menu got you Torn? Try a Jagged Thorn! Spice it up with some jen-ewe-wiiiine howler blood - not just any ol' howler, but a four-bit mad-as-a-pumpkin angry ol' Howler - it's shure to wet your whistle...and your bloodlust, you lil' vampire you!"

Re: QM - Bouncing&Bragging Room

Cause if you don't, I'll turn it into a Castlefest Mint. *evil grin*

Re: QM - Bouncing&Bragging Room

Yep. The pine forest we harboured in last week gave me some good inspiration!
