First review of Subsim Almanac

Onkel Neal · 01-16-07, 08:20 AM

The first review of our book! Not exactly in-depth analysis, but at least Google News picked it up

Interesting and good news that it is out there.

This has just reminded me that I haven't even ordered my copy yet.

Now where did I put my credit card? Will order today and save it for my long haul flight back to Sydney, Australia in March. Having to deal with almost 24 hours stuck on a plane I think I'll need some good old Subsim comfort. Note that's not to be confused with Southern Comfort.

Not if you are the keg on legs, Boonie. 52 is the magic number. 52 cans of beer that is. David Boon. Now there is a man that knows how to get through a long haul flight between England and Australia.

Legend. Dead-set legend.

Edit:
Read this yarn for a laugh on the events that allegedly transpired on the plane: http://beebo.org/smackerels/david-boon.html

I've heard about these little things but I suspect that they are only on sale in Australia. I'm not too sure if my wife would be impressed by a talking David Boon doll.

Are we odd?
