Ian Davis is a Punk
Recently, it has come to my attention that I've been libeled. My good name, along with that of my People, has been unceremoniously besmirched by one Ian Davis, whose book, My Boys Can Swim!: The Official Guy's Guide to Pregnancy, has this little tidbit on the back cover:
Ian Davis, I'm calling you out.
You think you're so great with your puny, three-letter, weasel-name? It isn't even short for anything. Your name is predominantly vowels! Do you know what other words in the English language have vowels? ALL OF THEM! At least the Thads of the world have a delightful digraph to enjoy in their names.
As to your baseless, "dork who should be beaten up," comments, well, I hate to rehash my old war photos, but you forced my hand:
Two questions for you Ian:
1. Do dorks ride wallabies??
2. Are you brave enough to try to beat up a guy who gets massages from alligators??
I didn't think so.
Besides, anybody named Ian would still be sitting at the table as punishment for not eating his mommy's "yucky" lima beans. So, until you can come out to play, we Thads aren't too worried yet.
Because, as we all know, the name Ian is Old English for, "Whiny man-boy who lives with his parents."
P.S. Apparently, I only have one shirt in China...who knew??

Haha, I was rearing up to see some sort of plagiarized version of your website. Then I had to laugh, because I'm interested to see why you were looking up books like that in the first place? Is there a little Rosster on the horizon? ;)
You'd better let everyone know when you're getting back! I'm sure there will be rejoicing in the streets!
Haha, no little ones on the way. Michelle's sister is going to have a baby and was showing her the book when she (Michelle) noticed the back cover and enjoyed it a little too much.
As far as I know we'll be back right around mid-July. I think I'll probably go over to the coffee house in Nampa, or something, to catch up with students who are interested in meeting together. Not too sure yet as it is still pretty far in the future.

As the punk author of the Thad comment, I stand corrected! Since writing the book, I've come across a range of anything-but-wimpy Thads, and I must say the alligator photo was pretty impressive. I certainly didn't mean to offend with this comment, and you've proven me dead wrong. Best of luck with the animals...you need to write a book! Kind regards,
Ian "the punk" Davis
Ian! Great to hear from you! I guess we can call a truce until your next book comes out.
Thanks for your compliments. I probably am not much of an author, so I'll take a preemptive sabbatical from my book. Anyway, good luck with your next work.
