I’ve been keeping up with this blog about as well as I’ve been keeping up with approximating a healthy lifestyle, but I must share some news with anyone bored enough to read it:

• Maddox has written a book, The Alphabet of Manliness, that comes out June 6. I could be wrong, but this could one day be viewed as a seminal work in the underdeveloped field of Men’s Studies. (Pun contemptuously intended.) You can pre-order on Amazon for only $9.57!


• Browsing related books on Amazon led me to Tucker Max, author of I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell. I read his story about The Austin Road Trip and was instantly impressed. There aren’t a lot of literate assholes out there, so we must cherish the window these gifted few provide us into their world.
• I’m returning to Austin next weekend for a visit. I don’t think I’ll have time for a road trip up to Baby Dolls, but hopefully it will be a rewarding visit nonetheless.
