I found this way cool site: http://www.thequietworld.com/ that has everything you could EVER
want to know about 'A Series of Unfortunate Events'. And today it posted some questions that fans have asked and Lemony Snickets reply. Here they are:

21 Answers from Lemony Snicket!


They're here! Daniel Handler/Lemony Snicket has answered the 21 questions posed by ASoUE Fans. My personal favorites:


1. Captain Widdershins's personal philosophy was "He who hesitates is lost." What is your personal philosophy? - Libitina

“Never refuse a breath mint.”9.


If an apple a day keeps the doctor away then what fruit would best keep away persistent realtors? Would you suggest something heavy like a watermelon or something easy to throw like a grapefruit? - Charlotte

The durian is a fruit produced by a plant pollinated by flies. To attract its pollinators the flowers of the plant smell like rotten meat. You can imagine how dreadful the fruit smells, particularly if ripe and damp. In many countries where the durian is available it is illegal to carry it onto public transportation. I once had a piece of candied durian and it still felt like a zombie meal. I imagine having durians around the house would cause property values to plummet, and realtors would no longer be interested.


Daniel Handler also hinted at possible future ASoUE books:

11. What was the darkest hour in the lives of the Baudelaire orphans? Please keep in mind that "darkest" here means "most woeful," not "lacking in light," and hour is not a literal measurement of time in this case. - Philip Jucker

I suspect their most woeful hour is yet to come.


13. Will information on the sugar bowl, the Great Unknown, what became of the Quagmires, the fate of the Baudelaires, or even the truth behind V.F.D. ever be disclosed, or is it left up to the readers to draw their own conclusions? Do you know all of the answers? - Dupin

If readers draw their own conclusions and speak of such conclusions out loud, then this information will indeed be disclosed; otherwise one might wait for more Snicket books, which would likely contain shrouded answers and further frustrations.

Awkward

Does anybody else have any problems with sharingpersnal things on your Blog? Because my Mom wants me to write about something that happened that was totally devastating and I just feel kinda awkward about writing about it. I guess as time goes by it will be easier to discuss, but right after something this big happens your kinda in shock for awhile until your finally really comfortable with talking about it. Do you know what I mean?

Unnapreciated

I found this on a friend's blog & had to post it. "



What's it like to be unappreciated? It feels like you're not good enough. That nobody really cares. That all your hard work was for nothing. That you're of little value. What do you do when this feeling overwhelms you? Cry. Become angry. Become depressed. Pull within yourself. Stop giving. Become bitter. I have. I've done all of those...but you know what doing all those things did to me? It made me a sad, angry, depressed, withdrawn, selfish, bitter person. Nobody really wants to be like that do they? I know I don't. And I don't want to hang around somebody like that either. And being like that fixes nothing.So...what should we do? "...fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith," (Hebrews 12:2) because He is the One we should be trying to please. Not our peers, not our parents, not our boyfriend or girlfriend, not our friends, not the people we look up to. Only God. Because He's the only one big enough to fill the void inside of you. You'll never be happy living your life for others. Live for Him and impressing everyone else, or receiving praise from everyone else won't seem quite so important anymore. "


I hope that helps you,

My Cell Phone

O Monday my Mom and Dad went out on a date, and they left my and older sister, Luthien, (not real name) and I in charge while they were out. We put the little kids to bed early and then turned on Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, which is one of our all time favourite movies. Finally our parents got home around 10:00 p.m. They immediately showed us their new phones and then Dad showed us a extra cell. We asked whose it was and he said that it was Luthien's and Mine to share! We were quite ecstatic. It's a black razor that takes pictures. But Dad said that we can only have it when we have to go somewhere by ourselves so that if any 'complications' come up we can call them. I'm very excited. To celebrate recieving a cell phone I created a Meez that is talking on a cell phone, here she is:

(I don't really look like this, but I just thought that she looked cute:)
