Mystery Case: From Julie Andrews?

Posted: Nov 29, 2008

by:

What the hell? I got a DVD in the mail telling me to shake my ass down to a warehouse in San Francisco and pick up a "mystery case." Now this is not to be confused with the "mystery meat" that was served to me back in the school lunch days, nor the "mystery date" I went on a few weeks back (more on that later -- much later, as in, after the statute of limitations has run out).

I am concerned. On April 1, 2008, the day INFECTED came out, I spent the entire day vomiting the stomach lining out of my body with such force that it broke a window and cripled a small dog three stories below. I'm talking "someone, please, get a gun and shoot me" sick, caused by some tainted almond rocha candies delivered by one Julie Andrews. Andrews, the proponent of all things good in the world, wanted to stop me, the Icon of Evil™, from having a successful book launch.

So, now there is this case ... and the CONTAGIOUS launch is but four weeks away ... I wonder ...

If you'll notice, my first hardcover copy of CONTAGIOUS has fully mounted the Julie Andrews case and is humping away. Anyway, the case is locked. I have to post this picture to get a code to enter a forum to do the hustle, or something, which will give me the code to open it, so here is the picture.

Bring it, Juile Andrews, because this time, the FDO™ strikes back.

Gas Mask Cookies

I gotta figure out how to make gas mask cookies? What the Fuck, Sigler. Think of your baking junkees when picking out cover art.
Fucking Gas Mask Cookies for Fuck's Sake.
Okay, I'll get it figured. Look for cookies on book day.

Question.

Are we better off pre ordering or waiting till it comes out to boost NY Times Best seller list?

Pre-order away

If it's from one of the biggies, like Borders, B&N or anyone on the pre-order page, they report to the NY Times list. So, your pre-order will count towards world domination.

Does the case....

I hear he's stil sore about his brother Hans.

As I recall

a while back, Hutchinsss received a mystery package. It wasn't a briefcase though. Could this be some sort of failed copy-cat deal? From the picture, it looks like the lock only has three dials. If you don't already have the combo in hand, just pick it. You'd be surprised how easy those little locks are.

I'm certainly hoping to come to Dallas. I have to make sure I can get off of work first.

Seth Harwood

I think we should blame the case on Seth Harwood. He does live in the SF area and could have access to the warehouse. After all, he has been known to pal around with some evil er, I mean, rather unique characters.

Gmork, you rock.

What a fun flick. Do you remember this quote from Simon: "I'm a soldier, not a monster. Even though I sometimes work for monsters."

Suspicious...

Did anyone else notice that the "mystery DVD" that accompanied the letter in that youtube video looked a LOT like JC Hutchins. Maybe Scott is one of The 33.
