A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

AmyLiz -- if you send me the Word Doc, I can make a PDF and email it back to you. Profile addy is fine.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Amy, if you send it to me, I can save it as a psd (and probably a tif) and send it back.

Edit: beaten!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

AmyLiz, do you mean that they want your text in pdf form rather than word, or that they actually want a picture of the cover blurb (complete with layout, etc?)

Either way, you can send it to my profile addy, if you want. As long as I can suss out what it is they're actually looking for....

Because books.

Thanks! I will take Jon B. up on it since he was so fast on the trigger keyboard.

Buffistas rock. But you know that.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Just came back from working our booth at Macworld. Only had 20 min. to run around and take in the show, but it looks like there *are* some Bluetooth iPod solutions for the car.

It's not on their site yet, but Griffin was showing something called BlueTrip which looks like it will also allow Bluetooth iPod to your car stereo.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I swear NoiseDesign said that bluetooth was too low-bandwidth to pump good music.

Well, who knows what it actually sounds like. I mean, FM transmission sounded like a good idea to me until I actually tried it. And other people swear it works for them. Scosche had a truck near their booth that had a stereo going but I was in such a rush I didn't poke my head in (plus the $325 it'd cost to set my car up is more than I can afford).

Bluetooth strikes me as more consistent in quality, since the airwave variable is a big one. But as things stand, FM's going to be less good sound quality than a decent tape adapter, just because of the nature of the FM beast.

The thing I wonder--is decent FM better or worse than decent Bluetooth?

Around the house I just use line in instead.
