SSH comments - Give it a rest people

[eh923]

I'm one of the folks whose copy of SSH is coming from CA next week sometime. In the meantime, I'm out on this board trying to find some constructive stuff about the book. What do I get? Here are a couple gems:
- "i'm about to pee my pants with excitmenet!!"
- "The bubble rap is mini bubbles that are unpoppable!"

Jesus, people. You sound like a bunch of 1st grade girls watching the newest Olsen twins' straight-to-video film.

Please please please stop the insanity!

I have to agree with this. I respect Ed for his useful posts, and once I get SSH I'm sure I'll find it to be top notch. However there is far too much stroking going along. It's like the cartoon with Spike the bulldog and his little yapping sycophant.

By all means compliment him on his book once you've read it, but try to contain yourselves and keep the inane drool-filled hero worship stuff to a minimum.

I'd be afraid that the warm drool against my skin might make me pee my pants in "excitmenet".

Seriously, it's not like Ed is going to send you an autographed picture to thank you for the verbal stroking.

Actually, I got one.

And NO I will not send you a photocopy of it, you will just have to get your own.

By mere coincidence, the Olsen twins just picked up their copy of SSH.
