Books I read last month: The World Without Us by Alan Weisman. Easily the best one of the September reads. A very interesting speculation on what might happen to the earth if humans suddenly blinked out of existance. Beautiful, unique, and thought-provoking. Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency by Douglas Adams. Yep. I never read it. [...]

Scholastic has agreed to a green printing of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows! As Hermione knows, sometimes it takes being a bitch to [...]

So, some of us noticed we never got the Beyonce-fied Swimsuit Issue at the library. I thought it was just taking awhile (postmen looking it over first or something), but turns out… First off, they never told anyone about it. WTF is that about? We didn’t KNOW we weren’t going to receive it, so we [...]
