LIKE our C/W coverage, however, the episode will be accompanied by a cookbook created, penned, and designed by Brian. Here's a quick snapshot of an extremely early, half-done draft of the cover to whet your appetites. I know we're all thinking about one thing with this. Yes. I WILL figure it out.

I wrote a pretty good essay about Solid State Society that you should read when I post it. I'm making unnecessary document decorations on it right now.
Stay tuned--Brian has also written an 11-page essay on Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex: Solid State Society, which we'll be hosting at osgpod.com in the same way we have the COUNTER/Weight Cookbook! We expect to upload it between today and tomorrow!

And, apparently, nothing screams "mercenary" to me more than a demented Thomas the Tank Engine enthusiast.
I had to put some orange on the top to try and break that vibe down a little bit :D
