Imagine OUR embarrassment...



We've been digging through some old files, and unearthed some of our old advertisements. Above is one from the '30s.

Dog of the Week



Hello again, Canis lupus familiaris fans. After a brief hiatus, Dog of the Week returns with Abbey. She's a rescue. And a doll.

Such a doll, in fact, that she barely registered how rude it was for a photographer to make like he was going to scratch her chin and instead snap a photo in her face. Sorry, Abbey. Good girl.

Is Abbey named for environmental activist/novelist Edward Abbey? I forgot to ask her. But, really, when was the last time you read The Monkeywrench Gang?

Maybe today would be a good day to pick it up again.

My apologies

I've been away, and horribly busy with Harry Potter, and have neglected this blog.

But let's get back into this, shall we? Tomorrow brings a new Dog of the Week.

And today, a link to a poem by Clive James. (Thanks to Bookslut for the heads up.)

Dull tag?

Here's a little video Booker made. It's for some of his friends on University Way.

Dog of the Week



Here he is, Dog of the Week fans. It's Marlowe.

Marlowe is an awfully good boy, and he swears that he did not write any of Shakespeare's plays.

Who's a good boy and didn't write Shakespeare's work? Who? You didn't, Marlowe! You wrote your own plays, didn't you, boy? Yes you did!

Good boy, Marlowe.

tell all your friends!
