A novel is a work of fiction. If it's longer than a short story or a novella, then you've got yourself a novel.

Maddox&#39;s site is pretty popular, he gets more traffic than McDonalds (http://maddox.xmission.com/c.cgi?u=owned). If you&#39;re right then he is the funniest 44 year old virgin that still lives with his parents ever to walk the earth :)
