I was also at the book signing on the 8th with my 12 year old son.  We both had a great time.  We were towards the end of the line getting our books signed.  Jim is really a great guy.  Hell's Bells, he was there past 11pm.  I don't know how many authors would be there that long.  He signed everything.  It was nice to meet him.  Hey, Jim, if you read this, a Big Thanks for being so patient and gracious.  I'm sure you had writer's cramps when it was over.  You are a great guy!  My son is still talking about meeting you!!  It was nice getting a chance to say hello and let you know how much we love your books!
