I can only hope that one of them was "horniness."
you should release a uncut edition with 26 full color pages of rbcp nudes at 50 dollars
I almost deleted Baconstrip's post when he first made it, but the forums are pretty dead so fuck it. You still suck, BS.
I'm halfway through proof #7 and so far it's been nothing but nitpicking corrections. And RTF promises his illustrations today. If things continue this smoothly, you preorderers might start seeing your copies a week before December 1st.
Any ideas on what to do with all these proof copies? I've marked them all up pretty bad with pen except for this last one. I'm thinking Goodwill donations.
The first edition stamp idea is kind of neat.
Okay, I'll try and do the stamp thing. What should it say? Maybe this:PHONE LOSERS OF AMERICA
FIRST EDITION BOOK
COPY #
I'll see what I can get made at Staples. I could stick the PLA logo on it too. In 50 years, these numbered books will be worth BILLIONS!
Actually what you've proposed for the stamping would be general and standard. It's pretty cool. Maybe, however, you can do the same segment with the Copy#, but get a blank line under it so you can autograph it for the pre-orders.
But what I'm curious about because I really haven't read through the forums/care to read through/checked anything/basically been completely vacant from here for nearly a year, is how you were able to get the book published? Rather, are you funding your own printing and shipping costs? What company are you going through for this? Can I ask costs?
Yeah, like anyone reads books or buys CDs anymore.
Has the 12 cassette audiobook's narrator been cast yet? If not, I'd like to suggest either Jan Michaeel Vincent or DJ Green Lantern.

Just wait til we come out with PLA prank calls on vinyl!
Wow, you and Spessa should keep that idea very much alive. I think it is so pointless that is has to be done. Have you discussed which two calls you'd immortalize on vinyl?
By the way, does anyone know of any phone pranks albums that were released on vinyl?
Oh man, and I am not suggesting you do this, just musing on the thought that the PLA book with one of those cheapo flexi-disc inserts would have been killer. The last time I saw an insert like that was in an issue of Grand Royal back in the mid 90's.
What's a flexi-disc insert? Like a CD-ROM included with the book? They still put those in school books. I'm planning to include a PLA Media DVD with every book if I can get around to burning a bunch of them before I start shipping them out.
The numbers are only going to be 3 digits long, so I'm going to use a knife to scrape the rubber off the remaining 3 digits.That might result in blobs of ink where those scraped bits hit the paper. An alternative way of blanking out the last numbers is to get a post-it note and stick it to the page where the unwanted digits will hit, so the post-it gets stamped and not the book.

CORPORATE AMERICA HAX.
SEND THEM NOW THE WAIT IS KILLING ME AHHHHHHHH
So in all seriousness, did mine get shipped out yet or was it slated to be part of the fabled shipment which was intercepted by Homeland Security?
