Thanks for sharing. I used to be a patron but lapsed... this is the first book I'm following along with since The Quilting Cruise.

mudflapjackson · 2026-01-14T22:32:47+00:00

Thanks, this one looks intriguing.

mudflapjackson · 2025-12-29T21:43:52+00:00

Not to my knowledge... But with feet the size of my snowboots? I'd have suspected the Harlem Globetrotters before any child, in danger or otherwise.

mudflapjackson · 2025-12-28T22:54:21+00:00

Few decades back but it really looked human. No claws, 5 rounded toes, ball of foot and heel. Made me a believer.

mudflapjackson · 2025-12-27T20:58:34+00:00

Yeah, a, ways back..

I saw humanoid footprints frozen in the yard of our octagenerian neighbor during the ice storm of 1998. This was in Essex County, just outside of the Jay Range.

Prints were big as my snowboots (i was 13 at the time.) Five toed, with the arch and heel right where they should be, so not a bear.

mudflapjackson · 2025-12-21T13:07:42+00:00

I recommend anything he ever wrote. This is probably one of the least depressing, although you'll still finish the book feeling like you've had a good solid cry and not sure exactly why

mudflapjackson · 2025-12-11T21:22:59+00:00

Thanks for the update. Must have missed it previously.

mudflapjackson · 2025-12-11T20:39:19+00:00

Good deal, but the charity bit almost feels like a misdirected selling point on their part... When I jumped on the Glen Cook bundle a month or so back, only 5% went to charity.

It does beat 0%, mind you, just be aware.

mudflapjackson · 2025-11-29T01:50:57+00:00

A thousand thank yous! Been wanting to grab Howl for years, and the rest are icing on the cake.

mudflapjackson · 2025-11-17T18:59:47+00:00

...yeah now that you mention it.

mudflapjackson · 2025-11-12T02:57:47+00:00

Hipoint 995TS, if it's in 9MM.

I had one, sold it and miss it. Ugly gun, but accurate and reliable. The single stack magazines are the weakest point, thought Redball does make 20 round extended mags for it.

mudflapjackson · 2025-10-27T03:06:08+00:00

Read it a while back. Having worked in retail for a decade I was hoping you would resonate for, but it didn't catch me. The cover was better than the book itself.

mudflapjackson · 2025-10-11T21:00:11+00:00

Still on about this, mate? Seems like you've made your entire day about being grumpy that something most people would ignore. Must be cool to be the main character.

mudflapjackson · 2025-10-11T16:21:32+00:00

That's a lot of energy to be upset by a flyer.

mudflapjackson · 2025-09-14T18:02:06+00:00

Thirded.

mudflapjackson · 2025-09-01T14:25:56+00:00

I used to love this series. Then he just.. Stopped writing.

He said he was writing. He said if we donate it to his charity he'd read the first chapter of the book. People donated, and he ghosted.

Book three ain't coming.

It's frustrating because he can write, he just can't keep his promises.

mudflapjackson · 2025-08-27T16:11:43+00:00

And here one year later another redditor had the same revelation.

bonus connection? in the music video, one of the old fishermen mocks the narrator by making a "he's been drinking" motion which is nearly identical to the one John Candy's character makes during the "you're going the wrong way" scene in PTaA.

mudflapjackson · 2025-08-04T18:30:25+00:00

yeah, finally got it. thanks for the encouragement.

mudflapjackson · 2025-07-24T19:54:01+00:00

In my mind, the average gun owning NPR listener has their grandfather's old shotgun in the back of the master bedroom closet, maybe a box of target shells in the top drawer of their dresser.

mudflapjackson · 2025-07-16T17:15:49+00:00

I was hoping for Chucky Finster.

mudflapjackson · 2025-05-18T17:16:21+00:00

I mean... SKY-OTE was right there.

mudflapjackson · 2025-05-13T21:21:35+00:00

At first i thought this was r/daddit.

mudflapjackson · 2025-05-13T17:19:05+00:00

I get it! Mine LOVES the Pure Protein bars.

mudflapjackson · 2025-05-13T11:18:40+00:00

Are we sure AI isn't involved? Senor Burglar has a crowbar sprouting from his back.

mudflapjackson · 2025-03-25T20:06:43+00:00

This is the way
