No offense to Andy, but I'm not interested enough to keep checking his blog for future video posts, but I'd subscribe to a podcast in an instant to see if I like the future stuff.

Wish I had something witty creative to say in response, but I don't. Wish I could BE witty and creative right now, but apparently, I can't. I'll have to watch future vidcasts and learn from the master. That was funny.

"Who has that kind of time?" But it's like putting your name in for Red Sox season tickets. Inevitably, enough people die off or marry a non-sympathetic third wife that one day you find yourself receiving a printed card in the mail, which you giddily return with the $15 filing fee. And if a boss set of sideburns is the only way that someone would ever mention my name and Asimov's in the same sentence...well, that's still pretty damned good. :) “A nine-year waiting list to get a permit for sideburns?” my friends scoffed. “Who has that kind of time?”
