The author of the Dice Man is Luke Rhineheart and if the die had turned up 4 instead of 6 I would be on a Honda Integra board instead of this one!

I've met the diceman, great bloke.

Once the dice said he had to do some absailing, he was so scared he couldn't do it, and he burst into tears

Didn't one of the Journos from "Loaded" magazine do this as well years ago?

Read the book and it is bloody hard going IMO

When you get to the end of the book you want to live your life that way. I got married 2 years ago because of the die (1 in 3 chance). I only gave my wife a copy 4 months ago (also because of the die).

Sorry - might be a little wierd.

If I remember correctly, you're supposed to give the dice some alternatives....
