Info for those who are interested in pre-ordering Harry Potter 5:
I am not advocating that you support them (because they are the Evil of the Bookseller's world), but you can reserve a copy of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix from Borders and you will receive 40% off. It will be available for pick up at midnight+1 on 6/20 from whichever Borders you reserve it at. Just reserve at their information desk.
Kat: Buy.com has it for $16.17 no tax/free shipping. Is it cheaper than that, or you just get it faster?
The infamous Firefly article is up.
They're still shaking bugs out of the new "issue," so their may be browser problems for a bit.
OK. Back to work, Victor...

Anyone interested in going to the Honolulu and Anchorage (Bermuda? Humboldt? Vancouver? Columbia River Gorge? LA?) marathons? This looks like a great way to hook up with a group in training to get in shape, and benefit the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society at the same time. FYI, but also pls. contact me if sharing some expenses and traveling interests you. Profile addy good. Info events abound all this month - see URL.
I'm going to be visiting in Murfreesboro, TN and College Station, TX in the last two weeks of February. I don't have the exact dates for each yet, but I've already bought a ticket, so I will be coming. I'll be quite mobile in Texas (and visiting other cities) and less so in Murfreesboro. Anyone up for a mini-F2F? Email me at my profile address (or you could just pop by Atlantic Canadians, if you prefer), and we can make plans!
A picture of the DC F2F and the infamous capybara can be found for the time being here.
