I won’t be at the Gnome Summit on Saturday because of prior engagements (literally, I am going to a wedding). We were however fortunate to get money from Google to host a Beer Summit on Sunday night starting at 7:00pm at Flat Top Johnny’s. There are a couple of pool tables reserved and free beer available so hackers can exchange ideas, build friendships and hustle each other in an enjoyable setting.
Now for a small update on the Cookbook. I haven’t had much progress since a large number of unexpected distractions have popped up. The good news is Lulu.com updated their site and one of the options is a wizzard for cookbooks. Of the three designs for page layout submitted by, Vinicius Depizzol, Silvia Miranda, and Diego Escalante Urrelo, I liked them all and they all fit very well with each other so you all are going to be the first to get a book, payed for by me, once it is published.
As for my name on this list, I would like to thank the Acadamy, my Mom – hi Mom – Roderick’s Mom, and…what I don’t get to make a speech for being on the “B” list and I still have to wait in line at Spagos? That’s it, I’m firing my agent.

Are we all really going to get a book? Wow, thanks a lot!!!!! ^^
Umm, by the way, will the book be translated into different languages?
Since we haven’t been very creative yet when it comes to design the cover, I’ll try to find a few minutes to try and create a mock-up. We can’t have a gnome cookbook without a cover, can we!
