Yeah. I wish him well, but I think he'll be waiting tables again in a year.

I really like his blog and his writing style. I also hope he does well after this book, but I don't think he'll be waiting tables anymore, especially in New York.

I don't know, Paul - I'd usually agree with you, but after reading his blog for so long I think my favorite stuff of his has always been his psychological analysis of his customers, usually spot-on, funny, and sad. He went to seminary & did some sort of mental health work, so I'm pretty sure he's got a wider ranger of experiences to draw on than just reciting specials.

I'm sure we'll still be talking about him this time next year, along with the Stuff White People Like and Hot Chicks With Douchebags bloggers!

This whole "You've read the blog... NOW READ THE BOOK!" trend had got to stop.

Shut the fuck up, Elliot! I'm working on MY book, tentatively entitled "I Commented On Slog, and This Is My Story", and you're fucking up my chances with your cynicism!
