the new emily post...

this is the original one... but now that I've written a manners book I do believe I am the next one. (I probably will lose the hat and the frilly frothy bodice thing though.) As you probably know my manners are the talk of the barn and I'm known the world over for my exquisite table manners and social graces. Which is why I felt it my duty to share my wisdom and riches. The book comes out May 14th and it is called Being A Pig Is Nice. It is brilliantly illustrated by the uber talented Dan Krall who is also well-mannered and nice like me. If you too would like to know how to behave in such a graceful fashion, buy our book without delay. Before you commit a gaffe in public and disgrace yourself and live to regret it. (If you don't want to know how to behave, you're probably a pig in which case you'll enjoy our book very much indeed.) To pre-order your copy, check it out here.
