I’m jumping the gun a little here, but Dave wrote me about the new Bunnie Blanks which allow you to design your own KB cards. I’m not a designer by any stretch of the imagination, but it got me thinking: you creative people can probably come up with a Dragon Page-themed Killer Bunnies card.

And lo and behold– a design contest for new Killer Bunnies cards is about to get underway! So get your thinking caps on, break out the magic markers and get crackin’! I wanna see myself in the next booster set.

Covance sent this review in to me today, and I thought I’d share it with you as I also enjoyed the book very much.

The first words that come to mind are speechless and breathtaking. I lose all sense of almost any vocabulary when trying to define the experience while reading The Traveler. The imagery and realism with which Hawks so cunningly captures in his words are profound and exhilarating. This modern day Novel seems impossible; but when all things are considered, it could be very true. Being in a technological career it thrills and scares me all at once to think that this could never happen, or is happening. You hardly have the strength to put the story down once you start reading the pages, but you know you must in order to get at least a little rest.

The chapters are cleverly written in short or medium in size as to not lose the attention of the audience. This fast pace novel at first seems to be all over the world and yet it ties nicely together as the chapters progress further through the story. The Traveler is one of the THE BEST books I have read in my lifetime. It gracefully combines technology, paranoia, and cynicism with traditions old and new. These fit nicely into one premium package Ð The Traveler. Thank you John Twelve Hawks for providing me excitement and fear into my life as I now look over my shoulder to make sure I donÕt wind up on camera, in telephone worker van, or worse on a table with metal prongs drilled into my head. Everyone should enjoy these feelings.

cmaler may not travel far, but the places he visits have their own special charm. Thanks for taking us along, and I’m gonna have a Hobgoblin tonight!

Addtional words are so pointless…

Thanks to Kurt for the image

Not only will Snakes on a Plane be the blockbuster title of our and all future generations, it also makes for an interesting real-life news story.

I mean, I’m a fan of the movie, but this is going a little above and beyond…

Thanks to Tom for the link!

What’s on this week: The Guys Feel Abandoned

Michael, Evo and Joe make fun of Summer whenever she’s not in studio, and disparage her good name! To make things worse, the studio audience that had said they were coming didn’t show.
