Last week, I posted my post-Shore Leave report. There, I mentioned that, Saturday night at the bar, I had threatened to punch Pocket Books editor Marco Palmieri.
Today, Marco emailed me, telling me he had received a couple of emails from people who apparently saw this post, and asked him why I'd almost hit him. He had no answer, since he didn't remember the incident, and asked if he had done or said something to offend me.
Okay, people, seriously... I understand that some of you may not be intimately familiar with my sense of humor, and that my lack of smileys can be confusing. And while it may seem like common sense to me that, if I actually were to become angry enough with the man who could kill my Trek writing career in a heartbeat that I would genuinely threaten physical harm, that I might devote more than just one throw-away mention in the middle of a larger blog entry,... it may not be common sense to all.
But, geez, people... if you're reading this blog, and you question something in it... ask ME the question. Don't bother the people I'm writing about... especially when they don't even know I'm here in this dark corner of the net writing about them in the first place. |
