Remember my post on How To Become An Uber Male Virgin? In it, I found three famous but deceased male virgins through Google and a very interesting article about a group of women who have chosen to be "males" in their society. I also lamented that there weren't any male virgins alive to be found (tongue-in-cheek), not on Google, anyway.
Well. Not any more. A male virgin has bravely commented on that post and proclaimed himself the oldest virgin. However, I don't know him (his profile wasn't shared) and wished he would write a longer comment. So, Daniel, do speak to us again!

If you're interested in how much a NYT Bestselling author makes and what her royalty sheets look like, multi-published author Lynn Viehl has generously shared this information with readers. Like the uber male virgin article, Ms. Viehl's revelation isn't what you think.
Also, I want to add that making the NYT and USAToday lists is all about timing. An author might sell 100,000 copies of her book and still doesn't make the big lists. On the other hand, an author's book sales might bomb and still get to boast "NYT Bestselling author" on their next book jacket. How so? Basically by the fact that the Big Lists look at sales numbers from the first two weeks, and nothing after. That's why authors are always begging their readers to not buy their coming books till the street date; the numbers game is very, very important for their next book negotiation.
Other factors are weighed too, of course, but we're just taking a glimpse at the NYT and USAToday promise of fame and fortune.

Squirrels are evil dog tormentors. If you have never seen a squirrel hanging upside down on a branch and giving your dogs the finger while eating some nuts, driving your canine friends frantic and causing the Homeowners Association Bitches (HOABit TM) in your neighborhood to start typing a complaint, then you obviously have not met Squirrelisis Sciurus Floridameanies.

No, I'm not afraid of driving my Lexus (Toyota) ;-).
So, do you have any factoids for me today?

Factoid: I hate cleaning my house but I love living in a clean house! Nobody cleans it like me (up to my standards) so that is why I'm stuck doing the cleaning. Off to clean--bummer man!
Factoid #1: I have not been to this site since we all discovered Jed had emotions.
Factoid #2: energy drinks do not give you energy when you drink them, rather at around 3 am when you're trying to finally get some sleep.
Factoid#3: terrorizing the alpha male population of New England is dang near impossible when you're chained to a computer.
Now I'm off to take a nap
