An homage in LOLcats form

Hobotopia is a webcomic that plays with the whole LOLcats idea. Recently, Hobotopia payed tribute to the cover art of one of my favorite albums, Neil Young's "Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere."

Gotta love it!

You only need two

I spotted a book at the bookstore this weekend - 101 Reasons to Love the Yankees. It also came in a Red Sox flavor. So, in honor of that, here are:

Two Reasons to Love the Mets!

1. They are not the Yankees

2. They are not the Red Sox

It's like a Zen koan. Eh - what else are you gonna do?

Is a book-based meme called a beme?

I have no idea where this meme originated, but here goes:

We moved it to "types of marriage and relationships."

- David Weinberger, "Everything is Miscellaneous."

Rules:
* Get the book nearest to you. Right now.
* Go to page 56.
* Find the 5th sentence.
* Write this sentence - either here or on your blog.
* Copy these instructions as commentary of your sentence.
* Don't look for your favorite book or your coolest but really the nearest.

OK, so since I have two books with me today, here's the special bonus edition!

Ditching symbols of Belgian colonialism, Mobutu changed Congo to Zaire, Leopoldville to Kinshasa, and Joseph Mobutu to Mobutu Sese Seko Koko Ngbendu Wa Za Banga - good for him.
