<<What synchronicity!  I was just going to post something Terry
Pratchett related!

Synchronicity is my life.  I call it "living in the Twilight Zone."  I
used to get really
amazed and agitated when it happened, now I just relax and enjoy it.

<<I'm sure we all know that, ever since the OotP release date was
announced, almost to the very
hour, it became permanently lodged at the top of Amazon's top 100 list.
Which means that, in
any given hour, more people order OotP then any other book in Amazon's
catalog.  What some
people might not know is that on Amazon's sister site, Amazon.uk, OotP
has been occupying the
top *two* slots - the second one having been claimed by the so-called
'adult version' - the
one with a cover that won't embarass adults reading it on the train.

Well, the adult edition has been dethroned.  As of ten minutes ago,
Terry Pratchett's upcoming
The Wee Free Men was in 2nd place, and the adult OotP in third.  .<snip>

 Now, if only I could see him somewhere in the top ten of
Amazon's American site...>>

Well I've done my part... Amazon.com [USA] sent me e-mail today that
they have just shipped
my copy of WEE FREE MEN.  I have OoP on order of course, plus an extra
copy from
Amazon.co.uk of the Adult cover version.  I love that idea, someone in
their marketing
department had a real brainstorm!
