Plus they forgot to draw his other arm! Though seriously the WoT covers are like a game..... try to guess who the characters are.... lets see... that guys... arms are slight bigger... Perrin? That guy has a hat. Matt! Though after listening to that lecture, I understand that covers are not in the same creative process…

Okay, good idea, kind of made the jacket long... looks like a leather trench coat that only goes mid thigh.

So I was orginally disappointed that I would have to change the name of my Garage Band from Social Cockroach. But now I know I just need to add the word Justice in the 100s of Leather Jackets I have made. Thanks!

Brandon Sanderson has, on the web, a great discussion on book covers that is one part of his lecture series. I mean, Mr Goodkind has been doing the job for... what... 20 years longer than Sanderson... so I am sure he understands the concept of a book cover.

I also didn’t think it was a crew report. But then again... wouldn’t the world be a better place if that was actually a technical report? Or better yet, it was actually a log from a “vague description of customer nausea” sensor that is a standard compliment for FAA approved aircraft. In this era of fake news, can’t…

Have we fallen so far? I pray this is some sort of physical man in the middle attack on Nat Geo. I am going to bury my head in “The Demon-Haunted World” until you hear back.

So it is now Maoists vs Mousists, eh?

I think the first salvo of an explosive space war will lead to the Kessler effect and make all of space unusable for everyone (LEO at least). And both sides would probably see that. If this talk of space war leads to technology that will clean up space junk and increased security on control uplinks then... we need…

I believed it until I got the point where he tied in the Super Mario 3 is all a play theory. Now I can see this is just another example of fake news trying to undermine our hallowed institutes. I will stand against the Bowser Deniers that claim that it was all a hoax. SM3 DID HAPPEN, the Mushroom Kingdom is not a…

Didn’t we already do this and decide not to?

The M-16 would make a horrible hunting rifle. Same with its little brother. It is only a .223, it doesn’t make a great seal in the chamber for gas recoil, and the upper and lower reciever at not very tightly coupled (which makes it wiggle a lot). It is designed to be made on the cheap, be easy to field clean, and take…

So, am I the only one that got an uncontrollable itch in their eye reading this?!

I think those robots were doing just as well as the first runs of the Men’s Alpine Combined. It was a windy day!

So when do we get the Star Trek, Dude Where’s My Car crossover. I can smell a viral publicity stunt a mile away.

Or just a picture of a passenger looking away from his current ferry to see this new ferry.

I expect that we will be very surprised by pratical applications if this is true and can be modeled. I don’t think when Einstien published his theories that people immediately thought, “Holy cow! This will add a lot of accuracy to space based positioning systems!”

I hope that they end up more like the Jabberjays and less like the Tracker Jackers.

Jinkies! Comon Gang!  We have a mystery to solve!

The best part is they will use Skynet to fight the drones.
