Read my new book, The 10 Best Things You Can Do For Your Bird at Amazon or at many other fine distributors like Barnes & Noble, iTunes, Kobo, and more.


By public demand, and after a delay of an embarrassing number of years, I've finally put my notorious essay, Ender and Hitler: Sympathy for the Superman, free on the fabulous internets.

A bibliography of my published books and stories.

Here's a simple card-counting FAQ to get you up to speed on the basics. Here's the true story of the notorious DD' blackjack team, told for the first time on the fabulous internets. No other team went from a starting investor's bankroll of zero to winning millions of dollars.


A Sadean take on Asimov's classic Three Laws of Robotics can be found in Roger Williams' NOW REVIEWED ON SLASHDOT!!! The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect. Adult readers only please -- explicit sex and violence. For updates on the "Dead Tree Project" and other topics, you may visit the official fan site, Passages in the Void..


My Bird Lists -- My Louisiana State Life List, My Yard List and, tah dah, My World Life List.


HEY! What happened to the Peachfront Conure Files? The world's only OFFICIAL Peachfront Conure site now features free peachfront conure coverage, including a magazine length Intro to Conures previously published in American Cage-Bird Magazine, now free on the web. I offer the best free Peachfront Conure information on the internet. If you have great Peachfront Conure info, stories, or photos to share, contact me so I can publicize your pet, your breeding success, your great photograph, etc. on my site. Thanks.







letter from delta in re you think you're getting any more deals that good, sucka?

2012-08-23 - 10:10 p.m.

Check out this letter I just got from Delta.

Dear Ms. Peachfront:

You previously purchased a special fare ticket -- which is often referred to as an "unpublished fare" -- so we want to let you know about an upcoming SkyMiles program change affecting these types of tickets. Peachfront's Note: They're talking about the cheap deal I got from Vayama in May.

Effective for new bookings made on or after September 1st, these unpublished fare tickets will earn miles based on a percentage of distance flown, rather than full mileage credit. These special fare tickets are typically sold by specialty agents or by a third party. Examples include:

  • Group fares
  • Student fares
  • Consolidator fares
  • Flights included as part of a cruise package
  • Discounted tour packages

Please note that this change impacts a small portion of all tickets issued and you will continue to earn full miles as you do today for published fares and tickets purchased directly through us. These include tickets bought via delta.com and Delta Vacations, as well as for government, military, and corporate sales.

You may visit delta.com for more details and specific mileage levels...

My first reaction was really? Delta, you're still bitter that some of us got a deal to Tokyo back in May? I have reason to believe that you guys sent a debit memo to Vayama, so Delta wasn't out any money on the deal...so really? WTF?

Then I thought again, and I realized that it was actually a good idea to send such a letter. True, the rule change has been discussed for two days already on the blogs...but what if you were a busy traveler and had been in the air instead of on the fabulous internets? It's better to know than to not know...
