    Charlie's here!

    NOW it's a party.

    (I hope you play that thing better than I played my mandolin. I finally gave up.)

    Close! It's actually a piano.

    A.N. - that's the excuse I always use, anyway...

    Hi there, Charlie.

    You're the one with the stringed instrument... and you call me a psycho?

    I wouldn't do that. Buckethead would never do that to Eddie.

    They're standing in for Buckethead while he solves the world's environmental crisis. His plan involves capturing natural chicken methane and using it to power these sort of eco-jetpacks, that everyone can then use to get around.

    Do my eyes decieve me or is is that Bub the zombie speaking for you online these days?

    Russel, it is indeed Bub the zombie. I trained him go online and represent me on crimespace. Ever since he chewed my arms off in an affecitonate gesture, I can't type.

    OK Judith, see you in Lyon. I'm the one who looks like Bub the zombie.

    Fuck knows who that is. I was just sitting there alone, enjoying my 8.5% beer, when the curtain opened and these two guys jumped out. Can't you see the shock on my face? One second later and they were gone.

    I thought I saw your name here. I FINALLY got my grimy mitts on Deadfolk, and I just have to say you're bloody brilliant.
    In case you haven't heard it enough.
    My first husband had a Capri when I met him.
    Nuff said.

    Merrill, all I can say is... no wonder he became your husband. And thank you very much.

    Hi Charlie,

    thanks you for letting me be a friend of yours. I just wrote a small online review about “Fags and Lager” and found it an amazing and wonderful book. But I wonder, as it seems to me that you are good at French, how well reflects the French edition your idiosyncratic ideom ?

    Btw, any chance for a audiobook edition of any of your Mangel books … and what about the German market ?
