My recent trip gave me a chance to see some actual scrimshaw up close and personal, rather than the sort often seen at Gus’s or Nelson’s blogs.

Hey! I’m about to get my copy of that book wot Gus wrote (with the kind assistance of some ghostwriter guy since Gus is a wanted man in Venezuela and several small, independently fiesty Caribbean island nations).

Gus thinks they moved up the publication date. Smart of them, since the book has been selling fairly briskly in pre-sales.
