Thursday Shout-Out: New Adjutant Inspectors!
I was just informed by my son that this is NOT a finger.
As promised, I have updated the Adjutant Inspector roll. The new Inspectors are:
All I can tell you is that it wouldn't hurt to buy my book, Antisocial Commentary. Beyond that, you'll just have to visit the other Adjutant Inspectors and try to get them to tell you what the secret is.
I expect to be sending the book orders out on Saturday. I've gotten payment from almost all of you. If you pre-ordered a copy and haven't paid yet, please email me for payment instructions (Don't worry, I won't yell at you).
Speaking of books, I have posted my thoughts on Haroun and the Sea of Stories at my Central Booking blog. Yeah, remember that? I'm still slogging through my reading list, believe it or not.
That's about it for today. Come back tomorrow for this week's caption contest!
Diesel out.
P.S.: It's my daughter's leg, you sick bastards.

I KNEW THAT WAS NO FINGER!!!!
Yeah, I guess I didn't look closely enough. Also, I should have been tipped off by the upside down smiley face on my daughter's thigh.
I was wondering where the finger segment lines were, but then I figured it was just overexposed and out of focus...
I see that your son has learned your photography skills well.
And I won't part with the innermost Adjutant Inspector secrets until they give me the secret AI handshake and password ... after I recover from the secret handshake, of course.
i see you terribly your children on film like i do ;)
SEE
terrorize, sheeez i suck at this today :(
Curse you, BOOKS, ETC. for being higher than me alphabetically and bumping me further from the top of the list!!
Diesel, I think you should rank your AI's either by Time Served or by Ones You Like Best.
Wow...from complete obscurity at not even being listed a week or so ago all the way to adjutant inspector. What an honor. I couldn't even spell adjutant, I cut and paste it. Now as soon as I decode the message with the decoder ring I'll know what it means.
HAHAHA. i must say i'm very relieved! mostly because i was going crazy (heh) trying to figure out where you found those teensie-tiny glasses! (no "tip-off" for me, because, honestly, i didn't study your daughter's thigh that closely. thinkin' any one who DID deserves to be called a "sick bastard") ; )
Wow. I have been cursed by Joel B. in his comments. This is a first - cursed by someone I don't even know. And for being higher on the Adjutant Inspector list which is something I haven't a clue about.
What a special day this has turned out to be!
Diesel - thanks for the honour. I think. Crap, does it involve work??
Dude. I love whoring. LOVE IT!
Now. Do I owe you a coffee or something?
Congrats to the new inspectors, I do hope they will be a credit to the organization.
I made it. I made it. I feel so honored.
I keep checking the mail for my book.
I thought it was a thumb.

Beth...
On second glance, I see that you're a Leafs fan, and that's enough cursing for ANYONE, so I take back everything I said about cursing your blog.
Sorry 'bout the hockey team,
A former Canadian,
Joel B.

I have this incredible fantasy where I arrive home and there is a heavenly glow surrounding the mailbox. As I approach the enclosure, I know I will find what many will consider the Holy Grail of print. I'll reach inside with a orchestra playing hopeful romp tinged with expectancy.
Covering my eyes from the brilliant glow, I reach into the mailbox and feel a package humming with mirth and begging to be opened. At this point, I'll run around the yard shouting my joy to the neighborhood who will come running out spitting out lyrical questions just as the big, musical number opens up and we all sing and dance in a carefully choreographed and complex routine even though we have never practiced it.
Thus will begin "Heavenly Package" -- a new musical by...
Wait, why am I wasting this gold here. I'm off to Hollywood to make my fortune.
No suing me, okay?
It should have been a clue to all of us that (as robin pointed out) there were no lines! Sheesh!
That's funny.
I was going to make some self-righteous comment about how I wasn't willing to do the degrading things a person has to do to get on the AI list. But, we all know that isn't true. I have no standards. ;-)
And like everybody else I totally knew that wasn't a finger.
Sure it's your daughter's leg. I know you secretly shave your legs. You can't fool me.
Robin - You obviously looked at it much more closely than I did.
Jami - Yeah, we both specialize in photos of slightly out of focus objects.
Blancodeviosa - Only when they deserve it.
Joel - That sounds like work.
Variant E - Don't get too excited about the prospect of figuring out what it means.
Bea - Are you saying there's something wrong with my daughter's leg? Huh? Are you?
Beth - No work, just the occasional cursing.
Queen - Next time I'm up your way, absolutely.
Logo - Or at least not a debit.
Goldennib - Exciting, isn't it?
Howard - You can keep your heavenly package.
Teri - Ok, I'm not too bright. Happy?
Jay - Sure you did, Jay. Sure you did.
Jeff - Actually, I don't, but I'd be willing to for money.
Congrats fellow Adjutant Inspectors! This is a great honor that has been imposed on you. Seriously, it's a lot of work, but time goes by fast and before you know it you're done. Then you get to look at pictures of Diesel's house and totally adorable family. What could be better I ask you??
Joel:
That hurt my feelings, too!
Ah, well - as an Adjutant Inspector, I can take it.
I have tried to pay via the PayPal link twice, and it keeps crashing me. Can I call with a cc# or something? I still want the lewd and lacivious signature on the front page...
Looking forward to the caption contest ....
Dude. Enough about that book! I still like your illustration though!
If you could define adjutant for us braindead folks you'd be a savior.
I guess as a new A.I. I should leave a comment. But I'm too sore from the initiation rite.
I told you I was an asphalt inspector! Not an Adjutant inspector! What do Adjutants look like? Do I have to go to some creepy government school and get certified?
Wooooooohoooooooooo!!! What a shock to see my name listed in your shout outs! :) Thanks, Diesel! You're the best!
Tee hee! Can't wait to receive my book!
WWWWOWOOOOOOOHOOOOOO!!! Now I know how Boston Red Sox fans felt when the team finally won the Series.
Too over the top?
Shoot! I knew I should have bought more than 45 books and done more than 9 posts of glowing reviews of it! I've always wanted to be an Adjutant Inspector, I guess I'll have to wait for the NEXT book and figure out how to pimp it adequately. *sob*
