FunkyTuba:
I would love nothing more than to Jeph to go straight down one of the paths we come up with only for it to turn out to have been a dream.

NilsO:
The Crisis Wine (Merloooo ?) must have been bad, considering both Faye and Marten now have a headache. I would suggest a wine with less tannins next time. I thought the purpose of Crisis Wine was to get drunk, but obviously we need more wine (or stronger stuff) for that. Still, I am a bit disappointed with the forgotten Faye/Angus date, and that Angus did not come to pick up Faye while she was drunk. I suspect Jeph changed the storyline after we suggested that.

The algorithms on Amazon are funny. Some books are pretty much sold for a pittance (1 cent + S&H), others are priced full baka (I remember a stack of this book was going for like a buck clearance each at Borders years ago and at one point was going for $300 a pop). I've heard some sellers us bots to one-up each other sometimes, with hilarious results.

Those aren't algorithms, those are third party sellers making a cent or a few cents plus the minimum $3.99 shipping to ship something media mail for substantially less than that.

KOK:
Steve eating serial was a reaction to requests the Jeph take a break from the wedding and show us what some of the other characters were doing.
