I want to remind everyone that Pat has a stellar non-fiction history of Utah football. My parents bought it for me a few years back and I've loved it and written about it on these boards in the past.

Also, I'd love to meet as many of you as possible at the event for my novel LOGOS. (It's a novel, i.e., fiction.) Read some of the reviews of it on Amazon, but a great place to get it with my John Henry would be this Saturday at 2 at my old childhood haunt Wellers!

Good to see we're adding to those who have a title in the Library of Congress. Although I'm unable to attend your event, I'm sure it and your book will be received with enthusiasm.

(BTW, you're wanting to offer your John Hancock, not John Henry.)

Was not aware of that. To me, John Henry is a venerable old thoroughbred from the early 80s.

Dude, the legend SeattleUte has written a novel? This is fantastic news. This news is the most fantastic I've received since I got confirmation that Luka Drca went back to Europe.

I'm occupied on Saturday encouraging a group of totally awesome, awkward teenagers to perform the Music Man with all the heart and soul they can muster, but if I can break away you bet your sweet bippy I'm gonna make my way to the Wellers, buy one of these things, and have the author sign his name in hot wax across my hairy chest.

SU, I'm just finishing up The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, so I could use something righteous and hopeful. Based on the description, LOGOS is that thing, verdad?

For reals, this is cool as heck. You've gone from long-winded lawyer to bloviating Internet troll to legitimate author. Absolutely fantastic, dude. Congrats.

And Pat's book is a winner. The UB5 ratio of authors to regular posters has got to lead all Internet message boards devoted to University of Utah sports. Easily top 5, anyway.

My autobiography won't come out for a while because so much of the underlying material is still being, well, created. But it'll be a masterpiece when it does come out.

Congratulations, sir. Many of us toy with the idea of writing a book but only a few, like you, actually do it.

Congratulations SU. That is really terrific. I read logos a year ago last spring when it came out, and met SU at an author's reading at Sam Weller's. I really enjoyed the book, more than I thought I would. It has a fascinating take on perhaps the most important period in Biblical history, NSU recommended some other historical books about that periodthat I enjoyed. It was also a lot of fun to read as a novel.
