Say What?!

Is that...alien being with wings thing flying over the Pacific Ocean to Nowhereville? And where is everyone else?!

As Nudge would say, "CREEPTACULAR."

Yaaaaaaaay!

Is it weird that we're part avian, yet I'm really excited to eat TURKEY? Isn't that what old people call "A conflict of interest?"

And, for all you non-Avian Americans out there, do you guys celebrate Thanksgiving or what? Turkey is just too good to pass up...it should be celebrated world-over!!

~NuDgE!

P.S. Memories of Thankgiving last year is making me sad. ;(

P.P.S. But thinking of mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce and rolls and green beans and pumpkin pie makes me un-sad. :)

Maximum Fang?

Is the book not called MAXIMUM RIDE?

Fang wins?!

What is this conspiracy? I demand a recount!

...And you don't even want to hear what Total thinks, people.

P.S. Hypothetically, would developing new powers be a sign of weird things to come? Or is this just par for the course? Hypothetically. Like, what if I suddenly had the ability to grow ice cream cones out of my shoes? Hypothetically.

Iggy vs. Iggy

Ig here.

I've been hearing my name thrown around a lot in the news lately, except it's not about THIS Iggy. It's about a famous person's dog.

That made Total jealous (are you even surprised??), and me curious enough to see how popular I really am.

So, I did a search.

...I am not even on the list! How is that possible?!

Hmm. I need to do something to stand out now. Climb (or fly) back to the top of the Iggy ladder.

Maybe dye my hair or something. Black with blue tips. Or, learn how to do something really neat like...juggle pizzas.

Mmm. Pizza. Now I'm hungry.

If you have any ideas, lemme know. (Like the answer for why it's so darn warm outisde and it's almost HALLOWEEN!)

Too Cold to Think of a Title!

Wouldn't YOU like to know where we are?

Actually, I would too. It's hard to see where you're going when you're wearing this much outerwear. I have a newfound respect for hat makers now.

I'm sorry, Nudge has informed me that the "S.A.T. word version" of hat maker is haberdasher.

[rolls eyes]

Anyway, we're excited to come back home. ...Even though we don't officially have one yet. It must be nice to have that constant normalcy.

Speaking of normalcy, even our differences can't stay consistent. We think we're developing some new...

Well, I don't want to give it away just yet. Soon, though. Definitely soon.

been a while...

Yeah, so maybe you kinda noticed we haven’t blogged in a while. And we’re sorry, but well, there’s a pretty good reason. You’re going to have to read about it in Patterson’s next book (yes, our 4th is still expected next spring) on the subject, but let’s just say it involved us being off-the-grid for a little stretch there . . . as in no Starbucks with wi-fi hotspots, no libraries with Internet access, no cell service, no electricity, no running water, nothing. In fact, we were on just about the most backwards, technology-forsaken continent on this planet. As in, think emperor penguins.

But we’re back in the U.S.A. now and, in fact, we swung through Hollywood and noticed this little thing in this magazine all the movie-moguls read. Check out what your five million clicks did. You guys rock!

Now just to cast James Earl Jones as my voice. Would you guys click another couple million for that? (Ouch, Max just punched me in the arm as I typed that.)

Okay, we’re learning it’s a very bad idea to stay in one place for too long, so we’re going to get moving. More soon, though.
