We get email: From Arianne Cohen, author of 'Help, It's Broken!: The Fix–It Bible for the Repair–Impaired'

Bvcnhn

Just in at 6:13:01 p.m. ET last evening, an email from one Arianne Cohen, an excerpt of which follows:

    Dear Joe,

    I am an enormous fan of bookofjoe: in fact, you could call me a religious reader.

Anyone who comes out of nowhere avowing she is a "religious reader of bookofjoe" and goes on to state that she reads it every morning definitely deserves a second look.

I explored the web space, as Bruce Dickinson might say, of Arianne Cohen (below)

and found it engaging and forthright, just like her email.

Her new book, pictured up top, is just out, and she was writing to give me a heads–up.

Such things are important because of the enormous handicap I labor under here, to wit: what purports to be my crack research team.

With them you're unlikely to find out that it's raining outside, much less about cool new books.

Anyhow, I went to amazon instanter and purchased a copy of her book for $9.56.

Maybe it'll have some tips on how to fix my dysfunctional research team 'cause it's been broken since day one.

Regarding Bruce Dickinson, no, not that Bruce Dickinson: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Oyster_Cult about half the way down.

That Bruce Dickinson, yes The Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden fame: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Dickinson

Enlightening.

Still amazes me that Wikipedia exists and is now correcting articles found in the Encyclopedia Britannica: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia%3AErrors_in_the_Encyclop%C3%A6dia_Britannica_that_have_been_corrected_in_Wikipedia

O the humanity!
