Picked up my copy on Friday.
But it's a long commute to D.C.
It is a shame it is on a Monday and on the fucking H street corridor, which is a total pain in the ass to get to, if you are a non hipster respectable person with a job.
That's the one sucky thing about working in Bal'mer now, as opposed to DC. No more Reason events.
But, that balances it out with not having to drive into DC for work any longer. FUCK YEAH.
Law enforcement professionals are noble heroes, and true Americans love and admire them.

This was on the new releases table at my local B&N. Walked by it and it shot out and hit me right in my niblets.
