    just a heads up, i was told that yao ming will be having a book signing today at the Borders in Meyerland
    I plan on going up there myself. Not sure about the exact time, i got to try find out but i think its in the evening (I think 7-ish), well after the astros game, hopefully.

    Shouldn't he be busy practicing his rebounding?

    I'm surprised there weren't more people there last night. Yao looked bored as sheet. I guess I can understand that, sitting in a chair signing you name over and over again for a long time would be pretty tedious.

    Kind of like work.

    I'd say there were maybe 100 to 150 people there. It's a pretty big store, so it really wasn't very crowded. I was close to the end of the line and only waited about 15 or 20 minutes.

    Fewer autographs to sign = fewer books sold. He would sign 2 per person, so, of course, I got 2.

    I don't think Yao will be hurting if less books are sold. Ric Bucher, maybe.
