Congrats, John. But now that you're turning into a lobstah, will you be posting a lot more and talking of your pregnancy?

zing!

So if he is lobstah, does that mean that Pubah is gunna start hitting on him too?

Uhhh....not that there is anything wrong with that.

Hey John, where in California? Is the trunk deep enough in your rental car to put hookers? I want a signed book.

So you left Jade at home all by herself?

Time to take a trip, if you know what I'm saying.

What are you doing here, you big, fat irish Frost?

I sorry! I sorry! I just want be part of group!

I go now.

Well Trix, I still have a user ID so I stop by every so often.

Yeah, same here, but it's kind of depressing to see what's become of the place.

Yes, there certainly has been a huge reduction in tired, incoherent, ramblings from a pill-popping illiterate drama queen.

It's sad, really.

Wait, no. It isn't.

et tu nutters?

Can't we all just get along? And in lieu of that, can't some of you get your sisters to SUTT?

et tu nutters?

Who do you think started it all?

As of 2007, Virginia had the highest percentage of vanity plates. Maybe Californians have since tried to catch up because their vanity wouldn't allow anyone else being number one.

but... but...

Butt... butt, more like.

Vanity plates are for tools.

I work with a tool who has a vanity plate.

So John, did you happen to correct my name from the first book's acknowledgments in this new book?? Although I've had fun being Tracie McMay it's getting tiresome.

Congrats on the new book btw.

Actually Trae, I did.

I should clarify that I'm not exactly saying it's a positive thing that Virginia has so many vanity plates.

One that I saw yesterday:

ATE2UDE

Um, why exactly couldnt the person use the T in this situation? Or maybe not use the U? Or do us all a favor and veer into the nearest retaining wall?

I have a NY vanity license plate that pays homage to my favorite band. I've had people read it as "Aluminum Brothers" and "Alimony Broad."

I have the same problem in MA with the vanity plate for my favorite band.

Johns Brothers? Jonestown Brokerage?

I had to google that.

That "I Fife" plate belongs to Mayberry, North Carolina's finest police deputy.

Mayberry, North Carolina, Ohio?

What is a 'ude' and how do you eat 2 of them?

Some South Carolina convict thought he'd make a funny...

John, are you still in California? Any more book signings out here?

Sorry, leaving tomorrow.

Was supposed to be leaving today, but I got bumped from Northwest, which had oversold their flight by 30 (!) people.

On the bright side, I got $1200 cash, meals for the day, and a free hotel room at a swanky resort with a huge pool.

I've got to get bumped more often.

I've got to get bumped more often.

Yeah, that's what she said!

ba-dum-CHING

That's extremely coincidental and more than a little bit frightening, as I had a dream on Sunday about John getting bumped from a flight. First off, WTF is John doing in my dreams? GET OUT OF MY HEAD, HARGRAVE!

I've got to get bumped more often.

So has Jade figured out yet that when you go on a "book tour", its code for my Emerson is gonna be larger when I get back?

Having lived in California in my childhood and now, I have to disagree with you on two things.

1. Nuvi sucks. to go from New Hope to Philly it took me through Hatboro, on the 76, around Philly, back into philly, and out again and then to my destination.

2. In-N-Out may be kick-ass, but they A. don't offer steak sauce on their burgers and B. don't have amazing fries. Although they DO have milkshakes almost equal to chick-fil-a
