How did you do that when it isn't even listed yet (as far as I can see)?

Cool! Looks like they're adding $3 to the retail price as I suspected. Yep, 160 pages. If the official date of publication is correct, that's my 30th wedding anniversary, 7/11! How neat!

I just recently got my 50th review on Amazon, another milestone: 45 five-star, two four-star, two three-star, and the one malcontent with one-star.

What was the date for Boyercon® in 2011?

As to the malcontent, at least he gave you 1 star! :mrgreen: You could have gotten none. :twisted:

We did a little Milwaukee confluence in May 2006, another in June 2011, and then the book-release party in July 2013. Hard to believe it was four years ago now! :shock:

Got word from the publisher (Hal-Leonard Books) that the book is due in their warehouse on July 5. I should get my copy about then, I think. Looks like the Amazon publication date is just about right. Thanks, everyone, for your patience! :D

congratulations Paul! Can't wait. Might need to get it for the simple fact that I haven't found the first edition from my move yet.... kind of like a perv being cut off from his porn!

Looking forward to it, Paul. If you're going to have any type of event for the release of this new edition, please let me know. Cedarburg is a hop/skip/jump from Milwaukee.

No, no celebration this time, sorry. And I don't have the Rickenbacker National Forest to show anymore, either. Ah well, good times, good times . . . . :) :cry:
