@sloane635: Yes, a magazine would be nice. I'd prefer 'Newbies today' or 'Gibson Daily'.

So, there I wuz, watchin' Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe onna Discovery Channel. An' ol Mike is fileting fishes, an' the fish lady plops a octopus on the table in front a Mike. Suddenly the hairs on the backa my neck start twitchin' like the time I threw up on the electric space heater in th' bathroom.
"Octopus!", I thought, "This can't be good." Sure 'nuff, they's hack tentacles off and th' fish lady mentions to ol' Mike sumpin' like, "Not many people know that an octopus has a beak..." Then she flips the octopus over and proceeds to show it to Mike. Cuts it off and tries to pull the... *gag* membrane loose from around it. Then Mike has it in his hand an' it pops loose like a greased golf ball. An' he says, "Looks somethin' like an eyeball..." The edge of my vision started gettin' dark. The rooms suddenly seemed to shift, to tilt, and a horrible reverberating chorus seemed to shout in my ears: BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAKKKK!!! I woke up 'cause my buddy Mike (not Mike Rowe, another Mike) slapped me a couple times. Gave me a cold Busch Light and a towel. I'd wet myself. |

Gibson does not appear Daily. It is more like a weekly magazine that appears on a non reliable schedule. There is a monthly abstract though. ___________________________________________________________ "The best way to predict the future is to invent it." Alan Kay, 1971. |

Hi there. Another newbie here. Obviously, a fan, since Neuromancer, actually.
We saw WG reading from PR three years ago, and my wife read it immediately, but I didn't. SF snob, I am sorry to admit. But she insisted, so Iam reading PR now and can you say "yay, brother"? He said he doesn't blog when he's working on a novel, but he does when he's travelling. So long stretches with no blog can only be good news.  |
