That's a bunch of bologna. Everyone has sources one way or the other.

Yes, he's doing book signings.

I just ordered one. My "source" was kind enough to give me a coupon code (it since has expired) so I was able to get a discount.

Oh, by the way -- Mr. Ripken passed through my hometown while working his way up to the majors. Wasn't here for very long though.

Borders is no longer selling them. They did a pre-order and that was it.

You can try the Barnes and Noble site, but I haven't checked it so I don't know if it's still available:
http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Hothea ... SRI=ripken

It is real easy to see that there was a book signing tour today:
http://www.booksigningcentral.com/2011/ ... g-hothead/

So the OP problably caught him at the hotel. Not a big deal, it's easy to find out what hotel they are staying at. At least for me it is.

There are reportedly several more signings coming soon. Check with the Book Signings site to see where.
