Hemant, you slogging S.O.B.!

Like, ya know, like, you have this like, “fatwah envy” thing going, and you put one heck of, like, a “mathematical sheen” on it!

Worry not, my friend – I have found every word in your book to be edge-of-the-seat reading, and I mean that sincerely (btw, can I borrow a hundred bucks? “I will gladly pay you Tuesday!” ). I only hope that, if I can ever squeeze out a book myself, that it’s half as good as yours. (Couldja make that two hundred bucks? I’m starting up my own “Chocolate Jesus” franchise!)

Hemant,
If you work along side Dan Darlington he was my football coach in Morris. He moved on to Naperville to be their athletic director. He called me the silver bullet. I was about 140 pounds when I played, smallest guy on the team.

I might move out in that direction, but I’m not sure yet. The “big decision” is something different

Hey Hemant,

The article said you were going to be teaching out in Naperville. Will you be moving out this way? That’s right down the road from us!

Or does this have to do with your mysterious “big decision”?

Hemant, congratulations on getting into Timeout Chicago Magazine!

If I had interviewed you and written that piece I would have been, like, “I’m going to edit that quote a little”.

Congrats! You got much more space than Hitchens for his new book!

By the way, your book is on the new paperbacks table at the front of my local Borders!
