Oh, you mean like the Leonard Nimoy Web page that claims that the former Star Trek star should eat more salsa? The site states how great Leonard Nimoy would be if he consumed more of this delicious condiment.

Or perhaps, the Star Wars gangsta rap site? Here visitors are told not to be Vadar haters. With the rap verses playing in the background, one could take a trip through a portion of the Star Wars story.

There's a site where President George W. Bush dances to disco. Visitors can even alter the dance floor and lighting, not to mention, the hip gyrations of the most powerful man in the free world.

Dan's archive grew from there. And, as it grew, he began adding personal hilarious comments to each site he'd log.

"I've always wanted to do something like that," he said. "I thought, wouldn't this be a great idea for a book?

So, he was off to the library, again. This time, Dan found a handbook which helped him track down different publishers He located publishers who would accept unsolicited submissions. He wrote letters. He sent samples.

Nothing for months. Then the phone rang.

My wife got the call," his father, Michael, said. "It was Sourcebooks asking for Dan. My wife told them that he wasn't home at the time. The publisher then asked for a work number. My wife responded that Dan was at school. The publisher then asked which college he attended."

Weren't they surprised to learn Dan was a high school student?

"It floored them," Michael affirmed. "But they were still interested and offered him a book contract."

The contract required that Dan present a completed book manuscript by January 2003. So each night he sat down and worked on his publication. He even got a quick lesson in the art of revision - a publishing nightmare.

But to young Dan's credit, he stayed the course.

"We're very proud of him," his father added.

Who wouldn't be?
