A buddy of mine played this music video for me and it cracked me up bigtime.....it's called Sittin at a Bar, and really sums up the type of guys I deal with every day. It makes me laugh eve...

I would like to see it come out in all its hardbound glory without cuts of any kind, but that doesn't seem to be realist...

<t>I understand that the depiction of any creature or race is subjective, and that there is a traditional look that has been established by the industry over the years.

New Leatherette Collectors Editions
<t>I thought I read a while back that there would indeed be collector editions of the new printings. If so, let me voice a request for black leatherette this time, with the gold foil. Actually, now that I think of it, green with gold would look good too, and keep the look close to the new cover. I d...
