Taking quotes from one of the hugest idiots on the site is one way to do that, I guess.

| | | I have (rather infrequently) posted book reviews, although I don’t recall any since I switched to WordPress. A little while back, I was approached by my friend Greg Brick with a request to write a review on his book, “Subterranean Twin Cities.” I suppose I should start with a disclaimer: Greg is a friend and I got a free copy of the book to do the review. I know Greg because we are both graduate students at UMN and shared an office. On the downside (at least for me), there is no offer of compensation of any sort to do the review. The gist of this is that I am doing the best I can to write an objective review of the book (because I only get warm fuzzies, and a free book, for doing it). I have to begin by admitting that I would never have considered reading this book had I not been asked. (I was even wondering why on Earth Greg asked me of all people.)
Tell me, who goes around enticing people to write reviews? Looks like Cherish the scientist got 'chilled'. So why is it that most sources, even after he has had so many negative reviews removed, still give him a mediocre review of his truly wonderful book? Cases in point: also a great resource for Mr. Brick to start a new wave of his assault against other peoples opinions that are wrong, because they are different than his own.

http://books.googl...ml?id=pT2hATCEjZMC http://www.barnesa...g-brick/1100869306 Oh look, he reviewed his own book, using Steve Thayer's opinion to support his bogus claims because Steve didn't have the time to write the review himself. http://www.filestu...ranean+twin+cities Looks like free downloads of the book. In all reality, I do not agree with downloading copyrighted material. As much as I think Greg's an ass for stealing from Max, I don't think it is right to steal from him. He obviously put many, many hours into this book. I might be a lot of things, but I'm not a thief , I bought a used copy so he wouldn't make a dollar off me, just the first guy. (And there are many used copies suggesting people read it once and get rid of it because it is so entertaining and informative) And it would be nice if I could post a review on Amazon of a book I bought FROM them, but it is mysteriously the only product I cannot review. Again, I urge people to buy a used copy, they're cheap enough, mine was under $5 + shipping.

| | | *Bump* Well, more bad news. Double dose of bad actually. Bad news Part I: Court will be happening for Max Action and Greg Brick, as Greg has declined the final settlement offer. There's a bunch of crap related to it that we don't want to go into detail online for obvious reasons, but it'll likely show up in the local paper in a couple weeks as well. Max could really use the financial support for what's about to come, so if anyone who has been sitting on the fence about donating, he could really use the help now. Donation Info Here
Bad news Part II: Greg has filed a bogus restraining order against Junkyard based on some extremely thin evidence, and apparently the court date is coming up really quick. The worst part about it is that Junkyard likely won't be able to get off work for it because of how quick it's come up (since he lives over 100 miles away and needs to take a day off, and from what I understand really can't do that unless the stars align in his favor). I guess he's going to file the papers that he needs to for it ($320) just in case he can get the day off (which is unlikely). And to rub it all in, somehow Greg weaseled his slippery self out of having to pay the fees, likely claims about feeling threatened or some other bogus stuff that I'm not clear on. What does this all mean for our favorite Beer Commander Leader? It means that Greg can slip into his paranoid delusional self at any time and simply call the police, claiming that Junkyard is harassing him, and Junkyard could instantly be placed into a holding cell for 36+ hours, not including filing/ processing times. Any time, any day of the week, and possibly any physical location. The only way to counter it is to have a strong alibi AFTER the fact, and show in court that it's happened MULTIPLE TIMES and Greg is doing it to fuck with him. Total fucking bullshit, and Greg ought to be ashamed for stooping so low.
Well, that's the most recent updates. Stay informed, internet. Unfortunately this thing is getting bigger and bigger by the week, and we'll keep you all updated as much as we can without our talk becoming a liability.

| | | The last thing I want to see is some hack academic co-opting a street (for lack of a better word?) hobby. And locking up local caves before I even have a chance to get to them? GTFO. Plus his sunglasses are dumb. I clicked some buttons in outrage. IN OUTRAGE.

| | | If I could spare some money I would, but not right now. Make sure that Brick has a reason to call the cops and that there are plenty of people that can proof that younk is far far away. After a couple of times you should be able to use Brick for damaging your image in the public.

| | | Feel bad for you max & junkyard, but remember what goes around comes around. He'll get whats coming. EDIT: After doing a lil research on some of Mr. Brick's scholarly works, I read a particularly interesting article regarding the History and Geology of Carver's cave (link: http://www.academi...gy_at_Carvers_Cave). Under "notes", he cited himself 11 out of 33 times. Thats a lot of self-citation for a supposedly "scholarly" publication...

| | | Thanks guys, nice knowing I have friends, even some I have never met. But I got this. It will all work out just fine, one way or the other. I'm not upset or anything, just part of his game. I have faith that this will all come to an end in the next few years. At what cost to whom.................time will tell. Looking forward to the next Beer Command trip, still looking to narrow down which pilot to set a memorial for this year.
