A Visit Back To The Old Campus
You. Yeah, you. You're sitting in class at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, drawing doodles of Ron Zook on the water skis, and you're bored.

Tonight's The Last West Coast Stop: Howdy, Seattle
The God Save The Fan tour hits Seattle tonight, and it's our type of event, because it's at a bar. Both the reading, and the "afterparty." Both involving booze. Sounds good....

When You're Pushed, Killing's As Easy As Breathing

We Left Our Heart In Alameda

What amount does your case hold? George Barnes here can sell his case for $189,000 — but if he does, he'll lose out on the million...

The First Of Many Book Tour Stops
With all the rigmarole about the Super Bowl and what-not, we almost forgot that we were supposed to be on a book tour.
