I have to know - how does it feel having Cafe Press thong based on your books?

The idea of a Campion/St Vier ticket scares me bloodless. Almost as much as some of the actual tickets do.

"Republicans for Lord Ferris" of course puts me in mind of the "Republicans for Voldemort" shirts and bumperstickers I see. And that made me wonder which of them would win if they faced off. Voldemort has the advantage of magic, of course. Both of them think they are far better at cunning and intrigue than they actually are and tend to go in for overly complicated plotting only to be brought down by people who are not completely narcissistic and power-hungry (because it's a state of being neither of them can understand.) But I think in the final analysis Ferris is a better plotter than Voldemort, so he might be able to compensate for his Muggleness. Plus Ferris has the power of the state behind him. It's a toss-up, really.

This is hilarious, and wonderful, and fun. And this official pushes everything into the realms of true Geekery, which is also a good thing. We shall all expect a picture wearing the apron!

Well, you know, I would just hate to think that someone who wore exceptionally tight and revealing pants such that the only underwear she could support so as to minimally cover her pubes were those that failed to express her delight in the extremely important and timely message of my novels, so I guess I'd have to say I'm pretty pleased.

What an astute analysis! Have you considered becoming a pundit? Or a political commentator? Better yet - how would you like to moderate the next candidates' debate? (Or is that too much like being a game show host?)

A picture - gawd, I never would have thought of that! But you're right, of course. As always.

First, though, I must decide: white apron wtih red lettering? Or black apron with red?

They both show the dirt.

I would never be able to moderate a debate; that would require me to refrain from arguing with the debaters.
