The protest against Amazon would've had more impact if they had chosen a more 'needy' author rather than J(er)k Rowling.
Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling is one of the richest women alive, reportedly earning $1.6 million dollars every three days from the Potter empire. Her estimated net worth is now $1 billion, according to Forbes
Yeah, I gotta have her new book right now and stuff more pounds in her pocket---NOT.

Not gonna happen. Wife is slouched on the beanbag. We're thinking of going to see a movie. You know anything at the multiplex that's worth wasting the next few hours with?

@5 Obvious Child is pretty good - a great date movie

Thanks Will. Wife gave your idea a thumbs down. Maybe a good date movie, not an old married couple movie? The Rover sounds neat. Description says "brutal thieves" and "stolen car." We could just stay in and watch our copy of Harry Potter again.

wow, hand delivered 20? dozens pre-ordered, you say? VICTORY.

don't get me wrong, i want the best for third place. they seem cool, and i hope that folks who have a bad taste from amazon continue to shop with them. clearly, they are willing to step up and deliver (literally). they'll probably do it with an earnest smile, and they'll rightfully earn a grip of customers who will stand by that type of service.

but once again, if you're so dead set against amazon that you're willing to big up entities like rowling and (the AMAZON of the publishing world!) hachette (!)... then you're on some weird quixotic bullshit that i, and most commenters (judging from past threads) just can't get behind. i'm assuming you stood shoulder-to-shoulder with metallica in their valiant effort against their customer's interest in accessibility and simplicity? lord knows that elektra/EMI/vivendi/universal music (the fucking biggest record label in the world) could have used your steam when fighting the great digital content delivery wars of the mid-00's.

@9 what the fuck is wrong with you? Nevermind. Don't answer that.

Please wait...
