On the Brokenness of My Blog

You may notice that for the moment, the layout of the blog has changed. You also may notice that it has changed for the worse. This is because someone or something has destroyed large swaths of my site. (In my mind, it was an oversized sentient locust. It also may have been hackers. But if it was hackers, I have an important question: Out of all of the web sites on all of the Internet, why would you hack mine? No one even visits here. They are too busy watching Brotherhood 2.0 and discussing how much cuter Hank is.

Anyway, at some point, my hard-working webmaster and I will get together and talk about how to fix the site, but it is a little challenging when you are not allowed to textually communicate with your webmaster.

Oh, and also: The movie rights for "An Abundance of Katherines" have been optioned by the production company East of Doheny:



Now if we can just get this strike to end. Also, thanks to all the Nerdfighters who helped make the above video the top rated comedy video on youtube yesterday (and also the third most discussed).

Congrats on Katherines!

I don't know what's wrong with your site, sorry. I don't think it was hacked, but who knows. And aww, not everybody thinks Hank is cuter.

O.K., I'll admit I'm not here as often as I'm at B2.0 but I check in every now and then for the scraps that fall of the B2 table...

Good news about Katherines. If the strike stretches on, perhaps you and Hank can just read from the book, acting out all the roles and then post the full-length feature on YouTube.

I was really distressed about your blog being broken. So, maybe it was my fault the hackers (if it was hackers) chose this page. Maybe they're getting revenge on me.

Or maybe not.

Congrats on one day getting to write the Katherines script!

Hank's not cuter! Although I do prefer taller men... And I do check here quite often, but you usually don't update and if you do it involves a B2.0 episode. Anyway, I'm glad that the site is fixed, or rather, replaced, but my rejoicing must be cut short becuase I have to look up locomotion in water for my AP Bio class :)

Best of luck with the site troubles John.

Congrats on Katherines though! I'm not sure if I said that yet or not on bh2, but really, congratulations!

And in my opinion, you're the cuter one John :)

john, don't kid yourself. you're way way cuter than hank.

w00t. ;)

I try to check here every so often, but as someone else said, you don't update here as much (one blog/vlog is enough work I'm sure let alone two).

I'm curious why a hacker would only mess with certain pages of your site... why not the whole thing? (not that I would want them to hack the WHOLE site but really, it would make more sense).

Ah, John.
You have lots of people who think you're cuter. *
* Including me.*
* I like asterisks*
* Is that how you spell it?

The site doesn't look that bad really. It's just a bit more white then normal.
Oh, and while Hank is cuter, John's hotter.

Yes! Movie!! I'm in Power of the Pen, that's this writing competition. We put the names of our favorite characters on the back of our shirts. I'm really liking "Alaska Young." Except I might actually sound like a real person.

Congrats on Abundance of Katherines!

That stinks about the site! (Stupid Hackers/locust ;) ) I missed it, I travel between here and B 2.0 constantly! Well, it doesn't look bad! Just a little more white! :)

I think you both are good looking, wicked funny and of course-Awesome :) :P . In a sense, you both rock and are both cute :)

Hey, I read your blog!

You don't write in it very often though, unfortunately for us.

John,
The possible reason that everyone thinks Hank is cuter is because they are younger, and Hank is younger, therefore, they are....more attracted?

I think I should read your books. I would always look at them when I worked at the Library, but never checked them out. I should buy them.

Hi, I'm from Montréal, Canada and I read your book : Qui es-tu Alaska? (in French). I really like it. But An Abundance Of Katherines is not avaible in French. So.. I did'nt read it. Congradulations for the movie, it's good news for you!

Eugéniie !!

Hey John, I'm actually based on the Philippines, and just the other day, just for the sake of trying (since it's rather unlikely from where I am), I went to a local bookstore to check if they had your book.

And they did, except it was out of stock. Rats. ^__^;

I'm rather surprised though. Congratulations!

i continue to wonder why you believe everyone thinks hank is cuter? i happen to think there is equal cuteness when it comes to the brothers green.

Oh, silly John. I think you're cuter than Hank.

Maybe that will strike a new debate.

Hank is not cuter! John!!! FTW!

haha funny... now everyone is debating who's cuter here, too.

:p

I was watching the video in my family room and my roommate was sort of half listening. After it was over, she was like, "His book is called A Fistful of Katherines?"

Get out John! You are sooooo much cuter than Hank. In fact, you're the sexiest of the two!

 
At January 24, 2008 , Anonymous Anonymous said...

I have to agree with your other stalkers - you are WAY cuter than Hank.

BTW, I look and write just like Judy Blume.

I am so stoked (I need a better word but since I can't do an excited voice when typing I wanted to use an excited sounding word and when I was like 10 that was a very cool word)that you got another movie deal. I can't wait to see both movies.
Don't be jealous that everyone says your brother is cuter. He's the baby. You're both adorable, really. He looks like my little brother, though, so I am partial to him. Sorry.
Oh, also sorry this post is nearly 2 months late. I just found your blog. Again, STOKED!

I always thought YOU were cuter. It's the hair. You have good hair. Especially when puff levels are high.

OH MY GOD It's gonna be a movie!!! hopefully. I love that book... so funny, so amazing. and so AWESOME. \m/ DFTBA.

I happen to think you're the cuter brother.

 
At February 05, 2008 , Anonymous Anonymous said...

wow - i wonder who would star in the movie? that's sort of a fun thing to ponder. let's see, if i was casting director... can't think of any lebanese-american actors. and it would be so important to cast hassan!

John! Who do you imagine playing the parts for your movie? I can do an obsessive search of everyone on imdb.com if you'd like:)).
