Who wants to go on a midnight run to Barnes & Noble later? Anybody? Uh, anyone at all?

      >>According to the data, the more dominant Brown’s booksales have been since 2004 when The Da Vinci Code took off, the slower the growth of the rest of the fiction market.<<

      Could this be because Dan Brown makes people too stupid to read anything other than Dan Brown? Magic 8-ball says, SEEMS CERTAIN. But seriously, I think WE should go. Seems ripe with potential.

      I’m seriously going. Union Square. Hilarity will abound.

      My Dan Brown will be, according to the evil empire, wirelessly delivered to my Kindle whilst I slumber. Also, the nearest Barnes and Noble is 240 miles away.

      See, by the time those of us on the west coast buy it, you guys will have already read it and posted the secret ending, which I assume involves Tom Hanks’ haircut, on here. Fuck you guys. Fuck reading. I hate everything.

      But seriously, I’m thinking of buying a plane ticket and coming. Anyone know Blake’s credit card number?

      It’s 555-4732.

      Wait. No, that’s his phone number. Or, well, the number he gave me, anyway….

      The joke was on me. And, by extension, Justin. In my alcohol-fueled fugue state, I mistook Barnes & Noble for Borders, where the book was actually being sold at midnight. Not Barnes & Noble. I lose (win?).
