erjin999 Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 Bit more then I would normally pay for a book. Anyway, isnt it the thought that counts ? Not the actual present ? :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanguard3000 Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 It's never the thought that counts. Thought is the kind of gift you give to second cousins and people you don't really like, but have to buy presents for...I've seen signed Chiltons that were in better condition than that. It doesn't even have the "classic" Herbert autograph, where he crosses out the printed name.Here, Mahdi. Have some thought. Happy birthday.

Mahdi Posted December 17, 2004 Author Share Posted December 17, 2004 "Thought is the kind of gift you give to second cousins and people you don't really like, but have to buy presents for...""Here, Mahdi. Have some thought."And here I always thought of you as my brother from a different mother." It doesn't even have the "classic" Herbert autograph, where he crosses out the printed name"Probably because his printed name doesn't appear on the page he signed.It doesn't look fake, if that's what you're implying. I'm far from an expert, but if it is a fraudulent signature, it at least appears like the guy put osme work into it.And if it is as crappy as you say, well then give it to me. I'll takeeit.

Vanguard3000 Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 I consider you family, too, Mahdi. Too bad I got nothing for my family, either. :D(hey, if I have to work 12 hours on Christmas, why should I contribute to the happiness of others?)And I'm not saying it's fake; I'm just saying that I liked his crossed-out autograph better.

Andrew Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 If anyone read Dreamer of Dune, they would know why Frank Herbert crossed the printed name out. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mahdi Posted December 17, 2004 Author Share Posted December 17, 2004 If anyone read Dreamer of Dune, they would know why Frank Herbert crossed the printed name out. :)Same reason he smoked and frequented hookers. Because it's cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure. But it was explained better in the book. Which I don't have with me this Christmas.Still havn't started to read Battle of Corrin. Too scared I will not finish it.
