Last week, everyone on my fList seemed to be signing up with agents. That was a super week! This week, however, everyone seems to be going to the ER for some damn fool reason or another. I demand a halt to this disturbing trend! Let’s make next week the week everyone announces big huge 15-book deals or something, OK?

    I did the ER thing but not the agent thing. Maybe this week I’ll get some good news.

    I’ve had a lot of agents. Just no sales. And I’ve been to the ER a few times. But never died.

    How many General Mills boxtops does it take to get on your list to get an agent? Cause I’ve collected two so far.

      I think for an agent you have to collect green stamps. Gee, green stamps. Does anyone still do those?

    My mom still has those stamps they used to give out with cigarettes! Like … 100000 of them. I think they are a fire hazard.

    What about striking a book deal in the ER?

    (By the way, did I ever tell you of the time I took my wife to the ER, where she was treated by Doctor Faust?)

      No, you never told me about Doctor Faust … did I ever tell *you* I had an English professor in college named Doctor Strange? ;-)

        And, when you made a mistake, he’d exclaim “Curse you for a novice!” ?

        Stanford’s psychiatry dept was (and may still be) run by one Doctor Dement.
