[color=#000000ost_uid0]I am, right now, at this very moment, looking at a copy of Terry Pratchett's new book, [iost_uid0]The Wee Free Men[/iost_uid0], which is sitting in my hand as I type this (which is not easy I can tell you).

Heheheh. I can only picture the expression on your faces.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]That depends on how good you are at picturing utter indifference. [/colorost_uid0]

Yeah, well I've been on the sailing ship that played the holographic Enterprise on which Worf gets his promotion in Generations. I applied to crew on it, too.[/colorost_uid0]

Yes, you should, but no, they're not. That's Pythonian (don't ask why. Pythonian doesn't [iost_uid0]have[/iost_uid0] to make sense). Evidently, you have much to learn. Ignorant boor.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]My verdict at five chapters in? It's another Pratchett masterpeice. It is very very funny indeed. My favorite joke so far is the fact that the swords of the Nac Mac Feegles (the Wee Free Men of the title) glow blue in the presence of laywers.[/colorost_uid0]
