So sue me!
 
If this case goes through, it's the beginning of the end for message boards like this one:

Lawyer sues Yahoo over message board "name calling"

I know there are people on this board who would agree with this lawyer's actions, but I must say that I regard it as quite pathetic... so sue me! :)

The worst case I ever heard of was a lawyers in Birmingham who charged a woman to tell her that her husband ( an employee of theirs) had been killed.

Hey Rincewind.....youre a Pratchett fan, you know the best places to get hardcovers of his books in the states? We only ahve a walmart around here, and they suck for any decent reading matter.
I know he has a sequal to the wee free men, and i want to get it before it goers paperback.

Cheers in advance.

P.S. which book you think he did best? and have you read good omens with gaiman?

Try Amazon or Barnes and Noble. That's where I get my books from.

Any book with Rincewind or Death as the main character goes on the top of my favourite list. But Hogfather is one that appeals the most (very "Nightmare Before Christmas").

The Truth was also an excellent book.

I think the sequel to Wee Free Man is A Hat Full of Sky and it's under $12.00 on Amazon.

I've only read the Discworld series and haven't ventured into his other works yet. When I finally stop re-reading the Discworld books, I may try them.

I would definitely recommend Matthew Thomas' Before and After and Terror Firma. His books are hilarious.

Thanks, i was thinking of Amazon.... and thatnks for the other authors.....you may want to try the good omens one, you will see how close they are to the discworld series. They make a good apiring, its very the old man and mr smith like by ustinov.
