not counting all the shills that north gets to show up, like fritzy, knuckles, family members, etc. how many people will show up to buy this dickbags book? my guess is 29.

overall number of books sold nationwide: 673
number bought by north : 257
number bought by family : 9
friends : 19

do you get a free copy of caucasian man with purchase of book? or how about a steak and BJ-day t-shirt?

how many chinamen buy a copy of dickbags book? 0
hispanics? 1
blacks? 2
kkk members? 4

when will we get jen-jens biography?

so many questions, not enough answers

somebody should show up and ask him if he sells 25 books will he shave his head bald?

nice, a guy who can't read is in a bookstore, awesome. I want to go and bring some Marconi or however the hell you spell it and see if he will eat a page with it on it.

Gives him 2 weeks to promote it every single day on his show.

I would say 50 people show up and he says 500 did?

Is this at the borders on Michigan Avenue? If so it's half a block from where I live and I'd be willing to do some message board recon with pictures to show how few people actually show up. Then we can compare my pictures to the glowing after the fact report North will be spewing over the airwaves on how busy and great the signing was.

Why the hell would you do a signing for a book that's targeted at men 25-45 on a Friday? Weekend dipshit! God does this fucking moron think anything through? Or does he expect the world to take off work so we can see his smiling ugly ass?

That would be great! I wonder if he'll bring all the girls with too?

BTW, I've been reading your computer/movie stuff in the general section and think it's great.

I have no idea about most of the stuff you are writing about, but I find it interesting and well written. I'm going to try to learn more about it and try it. Thanks, it's great stuff.

As long as I remember I'll make a trip out there and bring the good camera to sneak some embarrassing pics showing lack of turnout along with some T&A shots of the women. For Jen P I'll attempt to properly capture the strange proportion of head to neck known in most circles as Bobblehead Syndrome. Give that piratebay.org site and Vuze a chance, it's not that hard once you get started. If you need help just post and I can probably give some pointers.

A book with North talking about his radio success and dealings might be interesting, and if he gave his insights on the business of radio it would probably be a rather thin book. As it stands it is 192 pages (large font, generous leading, ample margins) of elementary school reading and insights about the local sports teams. With Chet Coppock (September 2009) and Dan McNeil (???) penning books I think the bar that North has set won't be much of a problem to surpass.

I think the bookstores decide when they have signings, and they always go with weekdays.

Also, it's not Friday, it's Thursday, even worst day.

I'm sure that is a very low bar, but I bet his sells more than Mac's "book of lists" does. Mac's just a lazy version of North. Neither one has much of interest to say in a book.

I'll probably wait for an Old Orchard signing.

If I were his PR people I would have a signing at Superdawg. They have space and it is close to his base. There is an obvious tie in with hot dogs and Superdawg will draw a large crowd even if they are not there for the book.

what do you think would be fair?

How about loser has to watch a week's worth of North's show at one sitting! Or would qualify as cruel and unusual punishment?

Better: Gene & Judes HotDogs at Grand & River

I work right across the street from the State location, so if you need a buddy... let me know. I'd love to see what this would be like.
