Interesting and encouraging, although we should take bets on what "a couple weeks" will end up really being.

Tomorrow Chicken.

So if he's answering his email, should I try again emailing him for an address to send him a copy of my book?

[Jaded Tersk]

We have to tread delicately here.  The man's a slight change in room temperature away from changing his name and moving to a town full of drifters to live out his days in the hull of a rusted-out Buick.

Now that I think about it I'm pretty sure I never made anything from the first cookbook.

Five minutes after Spenny's request to never let ill be spoken of him, this is the response. That's awesome. You're going to scare the poor little bastard off.

You're going to scare the poor little bastard off.

You mean Onstad or Spencer? Onstad doesn't read the board, and Spencer probably ought to learn to deal with heartbreak.

But you know me, I always have hope. I really believe he's going to post the stuff, it's just going to take at least two months.

Somewhere along the line, Wombat, you admitted your relationship with Onstad is abusive.  The scales fell away from my eyes that day.

[side_show]

Couldn't you just mail the book to the paper he's doing restaurant reviews for? 

[wombat]

Smells is a fuck*ng genius.

Of course, one of those alt weeklies, who knows if they are organized enough to get to him. He might never go into an actual office. But it is definitely the thing to do.

[Nabubrush]

Those guys are a disaster.

Damnit Wombat, you sound just like my mother.

I agree, we should be skeptical of the actual release date, but I'm just pleased that he is making the effort. Good intentions count for a lot in my book. And also he emailed me. Guys. Onstad. Me. I'm never cleaning out my inbox again.

[wombat]

He used to email me. Sigh. Those were the good old days.

[pmcd9]

He emailed me too, said he'd try to make it to the Touambie Awards.  He didn't.

[wombat]

By the way Spence, if Onstad never does this thing, under some mutually agreed definition of "never", I will copy the cookbook for you.
