8 8 08 and Audiobooks

[John Green]

In which John discusses the Chicago nerdfighter gathering on 8 8 08, audiobooks, and Dan John Miller. (Music used with permission.) Thanks to Brilliance Audio for bringing me to Grand Haven and to all the librarians who made my visit to Spring Lake possible. And thanks to everyone who came out!

The Harold Washington Library is at 400 S. State Street in downtown Chicago.

EVENTFUL IS WRONG
Anyone who subscribes to John and Hank's notices at eventful.com who hasn't seen this video might thing that the visit is on December 8, not August 8. Hope someone corrects this.

(Also on the front page of the ning, under "Looking for chat?", you guys have "it's" instead of "its". Apostrophe Nerdfighters represent!)

Hey,
I'll be with you in spirit. Can't get there becuase of multiple reasons ( one being location) but mainly becuase on the 8.8.08 at 8.08pm I will be at my schools jr. Ball (its Awesome)! Good luck with all, and hope you have as much fun as I will.

[Leah!]

This event is going to make my summer! But more accurately my entire year!
It's like a gathering of awesomeness. Ahhh I'm so excited now.
Also, I loved the end of the video. It was hilarious. :]

Ha! Dan John Miller! I don't know him at all, but I know Blanche's steel player, Dave Feeny, and have seen the band numerous times, so it's fun to see worlds collide. Actually, I can now play the Seven Degrees of John Green (via recordings instead of movies) and connect myself to you in just four moves! Quite possibly less, but I'd have to go look it up and I'm too lazy to do so.

OMG I almost peed myself when I saw the audio book >.< no kidding.
and the 888 thing made me squeal too. Not cos i can go, but cos it's good to know that people liek you are makeing more fortunate NF;s than me very happy indeed XD
