I love it – two librarians rummage around in the stacks at Awful Library Books, including such classics as a title about cats’ sex lives…
Could by Mayhem, but not quite…
This is an amusing cover for your Kindle or other ebook reader.
Check out the linked picture of how one ebook title looks on an assortment of different screens.
Ah, the joys (not) of ebooks with DRM. This is going to be the same issue I have with my Astak EZReader/Hanlin V3.
“The toy basket totally started it, Mom! I’m sure it’s out to get me!” -Mayhem
Mayhem, you finally figured it out. I thought you were a tough panther princess. Go get it back!!
(Whoops, just dropped a crumb on my keyboard, and it fell through…)
Anyway!
Mayhem, I’m sure the heat contributes as well. Don’t be embarassed about the basket thing – Gandalf rolls around on the table, too close to the edge and falls off pretty regularly. But shhhhh! Don’t let on that you know. He’ll be embarassed.
That book on your cat’s sex life is hilarious! Thanks for the links.
That library site is hilarious. In a sad kinda way. I have a book on highways of New Jersey that a friend found for me in a discard bin at a library, maybe I’ll scan and send. Although it was being discarded…
DRM sucks. And, yes, I am a software architect/programmer saying this. After all, what happens when you need to reload DRM’d software after you need to reinstall your OS? Not right to say you need to buy the DRM’d software again.
I love your linkity posts…
I KNOW, contests, contests everywhere – I can’t keep up with it all. lol
Have a great day Chris..
I’m buried.
Best

I saw that LOLCat last night and I thought of Chaos! My bad. 😉
Its too bad I’m so busy at work, I could spend days reading through those library books! It’s a great link!!!
May’s comment today proves my comment from yesterday = TRUE!! Thanks Mayhem!
I’m shocked. Totally shocked.
Love the Awful Library Books! I sent the link to a couple librarian friends.
My Cat’s In Love would make a great poster. But then, the 70’s.
Love the kindle cover!
Thanks for the link to Bleak History, I haven’t read John Shirley in awhile.
That cat almost has eyes as big as Mayhem’s! I think the toy basket should be put on a time out for bad behavior.
I love the kitty pic. Great list of contests. I will be checking them out. Thanks.
The library site reminds me of this museum that is at one of the local movie theaters. It is the museum of bad art, and it is hilariously bad. A few items are actually submitted by the artists, who I believe must not be taking themselves too seriously. They are all bad on so many levels!
Wow, that is some set of book contest links. And that wasn’t all of them?
Thanks for the ereader links, again! I’m hoping the color technology will get less power sucking sometime int he future.
I like the sound of the awful library books 🙂 I might need a copy of My Cat’s in Love…
Hey just heard there was a tornado in Minneapolis….hope you and the kitties are surviving the storm!
I love Awful Library Books — it reminds me of just one of the numerous reasons I’m glad I’m not a public librarian!
Wow… thanks Chris for alllll the heads up!! Did not realize that so much was going on!!! I hope you had a Great night and have a wonderful tomorrow!
Mayhem… don’t worry about the basket, put that tiara on and show it whos boss!!!
Some of the Awful Library Books are hysterical! I loved the old book about computers.
That’s the same look I get from Katie when I take a bath or shower. The “you’re getting wet!” look.
May I’m sure the toy basket tried to sneak up on you.
Thanks for the shout out on my linkage. 🙂 There must be something in air, all these contest!?!
Yesterday was definitely crazy, glad to hear you are ok. We just got alot of rain and wind up here.
