Beats me.
Funny thing happened today. Well, funny to me, at least - it'll probably bore the pants off of you. Which is good, if you're female - send the pics to the usual address.
Anyway, when I got on the train today, I sat down, and simultaniously with me a guy sat down opposite me. Now, I usually open up my bag right after I sit down, to get my book and start reading, and I did that today, too. So I open up my bag, and I see him reaching for his bag also. I reach inside, and grab my lovely pocketsized paperback edition of Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash - quite a good book, actually, but that's wholly besides the point I'm presently trying to make.
As I open it up at the page I'm at, I see what the guy opposite me was reaching for - he pulls this humongously big-ass whopper of a book out of his bag, a book about HTML-coding and stuff like that; at least a thousand pages, each and every one just about the size of an a4 sheet of paper. I just look at it for several seconds, amazed at the sheer hugeness of it, then look him in the face, and say ..
"Ok, you win."
We had a laugh over that.
And no, there was nothing homo-erotic about the entire thing so Ess Tee Eff You!
Cheers
ps: Put your pants back on.

So you feel you have a small one. Not something I really needed to know.
Like I said - pocketsized, mate, pocketsized.
Cheers
Whatever floats your boat.
My tome can beat the shit out of your tome anyday!
Oooh, feel that testosterone rush!
:p
Martin, seen this?
Excellent, thank you!
Cheers
Martin,
This is watercrystal. I came here to ask for your moderator's help. I found that I could not sign in the bookforum. It seemed so strange. Since I didn't know where to ask for help, I had to send this comment without any relation to your blog. (yes, I tried every way, email address,blah, blah, but still couldn't get in. )
Thank you very much!

I think it's because you have changed your name at the forum, you probably need to log in with the new name, unless you have already tried to do so.
Hay's probably right.
Cheers
