I Just Can't Keep My Trap Shut Any Longer

Post by joerattz »

I was trying to wait before mentioning this, but it is just so close, I can't keep my mouth shut.

Right now, I have committed to buying two CWs. A white Aviator, serial number 789 reserved. And a forum LE, serial number 3 reserved. Together, that is 789-3. The significance you ask? ISBN 1-59059-789-3. The 1 that the ISBN starts with defines the country, US. The 59059 that follows is reserved to Apress. The 789-3 is a reference for my soon to be released book:

BTW, Amazon doesn't have the correct title because it has recently been changed to Pro LINQ: Language Integrated Query in C# 2008. It should be available end of October'ish.

The watches are a self-reward for the book, as is my black Aviator I got last year when I signed the contract.

A book about Linq in C#. Oooooo... I gotta have that.
