"What is Whispersync audio? Is it the Audible book being read by Scott Adams, or a synthesized voice?"
It's the Audible version, costing less than the normal audio because you've bought the Kindle version, and then it syncs to the Kindle, so you can switch between reading and listening. I like to listen when walking, but prefer reading when sitting around, so I can keep going without looking for my place.
I also like it because I pay less for the audiobook and I want both so I can do my walking and listening and then later have text to cut and paste and blog.

Just got my hardback version today!
I'm listening to the audiobook, narrated by Scott Adams himself.
What is Whispersync audio? Is it the Audible book being read by Scott Adams, or a synthesized voice?
Just as a title, it rubs my ear wrong: A combination of "Winn Dixie" & "Piggly Wiggly".
People in other parts of the country won't have that problem..

Or "Wink Martindale".

Audible and Amazon are the same company.
Will anyone here be buying one of Scott Adams’s soon to be issued digital tokens?
What the heck, me too

Whoever came up with the word bigly needs to be touched by Satan like Job was.
The joke is using a rule to ignore a convention.
