CHICAGO SIGHTING

Here I am at my event in Chicago last night with blog stalwart Not My Usual Alias, who is (I think) dressed as Gene Weingarten dressed as the Costco Chicken Guy. Again: Do not ask me to explain.

Regarding the ketchup stains: Some soda water and a shop vac will eliminate staining when used in a timely fashion. Also catsup seems to stain less then ketchup (don't ask me why) but a good tip is to wear a red necktie which can be used to mop up any large spills with little fear of staining.

No offense, Dave, but you look like you'd rather be sleeping. Remember, you're old!

PS - Love the book so far.

America Online. You don't hear much about them anymore. I remember when Steve Case used to send out a little folksy email to the users (I got in on the ground floor). This was before they started attaching an AOL installation CD to everything from magazines to milk cartons.

So I can see Dave signing a book for Not My Usual Alias, who hasn't changed a bit since 1941, when suddenly NMUA raises the attention of the host and every concerned-look-on-their-face attendee when He shouts out, "It's a cookbook!"

You mean... these internet posters are real people ?!

Many have tried to explain my sense of humor, few have been able

Thank you to Emily for keeping Security at bay

Explanation: That's the UPC for a Kirkland Seasoned Rotisserie Chicken. He doesn't look like a spring chicken to me.

One thing you can say about NMUA is that he never drinks anywhere that doesn't have a distinct bar code. Hopefully, it was on Dave's tab.

Nice to put another face to a name (even if it isn't his usual one)!

Dave is thinking how funny it would be if he had a caterpillar on his upper lip too.
