G-mail or G-string

[essentialsaltes]

bellwethr (and several others of you who've been passing out little Gmail invite candies) reminded me once more that Google Answers promised Gmail accounts to its researchers. I actually am a Google Answers researcher, though I've researched exactly one question. Nevertheless, I feel I've earned my Gmail account, straight from the holy Google source itself. Not like most of you other people... out there spreading invites like some horrible socially transmitted betatest.

Anyway, if you wanna say hi, I'm essentialsaltes at gmail.

Oh, yeah, and I got my Darkest of the Hillside Thickets t-shirt, featuring "Where the Great Old Ones Are":


Yes, this makes me really cool, but not one hundredth as cool as Toren, who drew it.

That is awesome! Toren's artwork is great. I love his stuff in Monte's books. Are these for sale?? I really want one!

My personal theory on gmail accounts is that this is Google's ploy to get everyone to use them. Make them a limited commodity initially that everyone wants for the coolness factor, and then slowly dole them out until *surprise* they've saturated the market.

Last I heard, the first run of shirts were all sold, but another run seems likely. In the meantime, you can always buy some of Toren's original art.
