A fine collection of literary cartoons. Some of them I had to stretch to see the literature/book reference but most had an obvious connection. There were a lot of cartoons about rejection letters and first time novelists though. There were some funny cartoons but nothing that made me more than smile.
A fun collection of cartoons to browse when you want something light but not pedestrian.

Shelves: anthology
Much like the comics scattered throughout an issue of the New Yorker itself, one or two make you chuckle and the rest are loathsome. "Literary cartoons" was perhaps a loosely defined moniker or else its parameters were expanded in order to fill the book-size--whatever the reasoning,w ait, check that, I don't think there was much reasoning put into this.
As one of the millions of unpublished writers (probably on this sight....maybe multiple millions) I found these side splitting to mildly humorous. I think one of my favorites is the man standing on a tall stack of self-help books, with a noose around his neck.

So we bought a kitchen.
By we, I mean Rebekah.
By bought, I mean overpaid.
And by kitchen, I mean half - as in half of the required cabinets to fill the space we have planned for our new kitchen.
That's what happens when you leave your Mrs alone in the car with a smartphone and access to your TradeMe account.
See all the pics of the new kitchen on our Facebook page.
If you follow her logic, it's my fault because the only reason she was in the car was because she was waiting for me and the kitchen was on my watchlist.
If you follow my logic, she is nuts for buying a major purchase for our house without considering its dimensions, checking our plans or consulting the person who is managing the project: i.e. me.
The only reason the kitchen was on my watchlist was because I'd asked the seller if he was interested in selling the windows which appeared in the background of the photos.
The only warning I got was two short text messages:
"I just bid on a kitchen."
Followed two minutes later by:
"I just bought a kitchen."
At first I was bit gutted (and my dramatic overreaction required a bunch of 'sorry I said you're nuts' flowers) because the kitchen is a delicate part of the renovation puzzle and I had spent many hours researching our options.
From the outset I earmarked the kitchen as one area where we could save some money without compromising on the finished look and feel.
They say the kitchen is the heart of the home (and what sells it). Sure it's where you prepare the family meals and share a cuppa with the Mrs in the morning, but it's essentially a bunch of MDMF boxes and I reckon there are a few options to achieve a brilliant finish without paying the dazzling, custom-made prices.
In our last house, we bought a $12,000 ex-display kitchen from local joinery The Seller's Room for just $3,400. With some minor alterations I installed it myself and it looked brand spanking new. It also significantly improved the value, functionality and our enjoyment of the home.
This time our kitchen space is much larger. An L-shape with a double return and the longest bench runs for over 4 metres.
When it's finished it has to look and feel brand new. The brother-in-law says we are looking at the wrong side of $20,000 to walk in through the front door and order that through a joiner. But I need to keep it under $10,000 if we are to stay within our $100,000 overall budget.
The best case scenario would have been to land another load of cabinetry from a local joiner who happens to be updating their showroom. If you can find one of these, you basically get a brand new kitchen at a second-hand price - with the added bonus of building a relationship with someone who is actually skilled at making kitchens. The Seller's Room were a top bunch of people: they gave us fixings, and installation advice and follow up service. The ex-demo kitchens come up every now and again on TradeMe but they go quick and can sell for a premium over other second-hand offerings. I think you're better off to simply man the phone and call all your local guys and ask them if they're updating their showroom anytime soon.
Our second option was to buy a second-hand kitchen and make it new again. With the Christchurch rebuild in full swing, there are kitchens coming out of red-zoned houses all the time and selling for a fraction of a new build price. The key when buying a second-hand kitchen is, as I would have told Rebekah, to forget about its current shape.
You're probably not going to find the perfect kitchen to copy and paste into your home. Instead think of them as a jigsaw puzzle. Modular kitchens are just a collection of standard-sized boxes called carcasses lined up next to each other with doors and drawers and a bench on top. It's the carcasses that you build the kitchen with, and to some extent it doesn't even matter how old they are. They're all made from the same stuff and spend most of their lives hidden from view so you won't notice the difference between them in a $5000 or a $50,000 kitchen.
My approach was to get cheap carcasses and spend good money on the things where you can feel the quality - door handles, hinges, bench tops and tapware. If the doors are dated you can get them repainted or replaced or even relaminated. You can get cool handles cheap from ebay (tapware and benchtops are something I'll look at in more detail in the future).
So obviously we (she), has opted for the second option and after a short period of grumbling, I've come to realise that it's not all bad. The kitchen cost $4000 + $700 delivery, and was part of a renovation that was underway at a Mt Pleasant home when the earthquake struck. It's mostly white, very nearly new, and comes with Smeg appliances.
Don't tell Rebekah I said this, but It's actually really good value.
The brother-in-law reckons there's about $13,000 of cabinetry plus appliances. That leaves us with approximately $5000 to source an additional 3.5m of cabinetry, new bench tops, sink and tap.
So what do you think? Was this kitchen a bargain? And how do we make it work....
Total spent to date: ($4591.85 + $4700)= $9291.85
Total remaining: ($97,964.15 - $4700) = $93264.15

iPad 2: Three offers mighty 15GB monthly data
Three has announced its price plans for the iPad 2, which it will be stocking in select stores up and down the country from 5pm today (25 March) - launch day. And the biggest surprise is that it has comfortably trumped all rivals by offering a staggering 15GB data limit per month on a 24-month contract.
Data plans are set at a standard £25 per month, for 24 months, similar to rivals, T-Mobile and Orange. Vodafone is charging £24.50pm to existing customers, £27pm to new ones, while O2's tariffs are the same with the original iPad as it isn't currently offering a cut price device package (£2.04 daily - 200MB, £10.21 monthly - 1GB, £15.32 monthly - 2GB).
However, Three is offering more data for the money, with the aforementioned 15GB per month, in comparison to the 2GB from Vodafone, and 1GB busy/1GB quiet time plans of Orange and T-Mobile.
The device is more expensive initially, as Three is charging £229 upfront for the 16GB Wi-Fi + 3G version (regardless of colour), £279 for the 32GB model, and £379 for the 64GB.
It also seems that there are no free Wi-Fi deals attached.
Check out the prices and details for yourself, as well as a list of Three stores that are stocking the iPad 2 this afternoon, at www.three.co.uk/Mobile_Broadband/iPad/iPad_2_plans.

This one - the loft you always wished you'd had - exceeded expectations. No detail is left unnoticed. And Ava is an expert and reliable owner. She is available and quick with a reply. Our friends who visited us not only took pictures of the place, but shared them with family, hoping to visit the loft again with their other people. Thanks Ava!
Eva was great. Provided a bunch of info on the area and things to do. Her place is awesome, really cool industrial feel loft with plenty of space and a movie projector!!
I'd stay there again in a heartbeat.
So incredible! Great city view from the front door, and the place was spacious and original. They accompanied my crazy travel times and late check out, and stocked the kitchen with tons of goodies and bottled water. Huge thanks, will absolutely be back if in the area!!
Eva was a wonderful Airbnb host. I felt like I was in the hands of a true professional. She left out instructions for everything- what to do with the linens, how to control the temperature- and of course, the wi-fi password. She left breakfast foods and sweets, and guide books on the table. She was proactive about communication and offered to help with anything we needed. I would definitely stay here again!
Eva was an excellent host. Though we were running late due to traffic, she was there when we arrived and greeted us with such a wonderful smile. The space was exactly as described and really fantastic. Eva gave us a tour of the space, directions to PNC Park from the loft, and finished off with suggestions for great beer. She also left us breakfast pastries, bottles of water, and other snacks, which was a really warm and welcoming touch that we appreciated. There were no issues during our weekend stay and we'd definitely stay there again.
Great location and views, Private and quiet, lovely loft with the best stocked kitchen and pantry I have ever experienced.
Loft is compact but well designed and has everything one would need. Location is close to great brewery and walking distance to downtown.
I had a great time and would highly recommend.
Very pretty, comfortable studio, more spacious than the pictures suggest. Eva is delightful and knowledgeable, lots of area information and recommendations, and a very well-equipped kitchen stocked with lots of staples and goodies that she has left for you to consume. Easy parking, can walk to downtown and the Warhol Museum, and quick connection to major roads.
This host has 5 reviews for other properties.View Other Reviews
About the Host, Eva
It's been already couple of years ago since I started using airbnb, both as a host and also- as a guest. I believe this is hands down the best way to visit places around the world- to get in touch with local people and to take their real-life, real-time advice, something that no hotels or tourist guidebooks can fully give you. Something that also- by the uniqueness of each place makes you feel more like a guest, less like a -customer. Not to mention the human connection: many of my past hosts are now my friends.
About our space: I live at a different location now but my partner & I, both designers have designed, built and used it as our multidisciplinary studio for the past 20+ years. It's been a constant work-in-progress but we try our best to update the info & the photos regularly.
We have hosted plenty of our friends and guests here and they still keep coming back for more :-)
We are long-time Pittsburghers, we love this city with all its quirks and will be happy to share our knowledge with you.

Cesc Fabregas should return to Arsenal from Barcelona rather than join Chelsea, his Spain team-mate Santi Cazorla has claimed.
Fabregas is widely expected to depart Camp Nou in the coming months after failing to nail down a regular starting role for Barcelona.
The 27-year-old has scored an impressive 42 goals in 151 games in all competitions for the Catalan giants, but is thought to be keen on a move to become a key player elsewhere.
He will have a chance to prove his worth at the upcoming FIFA World Cup, where Spain will look to defend their 2010 crown.
And, amid reports Arsenal and Chelsea could fight it out for his signature, Cazorla has called for the former Emirates Stadium captain to make a return to north London.
"I have read that Cesc could go to Chelsea but I prefer that he comes to Arsenal. He has given a lot to the club and he knows it well," Cazorla said ahead of Spain's final World Cup warm-up game with El Salvador.
"I hope that he is happy, he chooses his club well and is comfortable there."
Cazorla does not believe Fabregas' performances for Barcelona have merited any criticism, and believes he would be warmly welcomed back on British shores.
The playmaker added: "I don't see any differences between his performances in the Premiership and with Barca.
"His record is spectacular at Barcelona and he has demonstrated that he has adapted but they haven't given him the same value as in England."

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
27 Mar 2011 22:51 GMT | Politics, Europe, Germany, Japan, Libya
Germany's anti-nuclear Green Party has scored a remarkable state election victory, dealing a blow to the party of Angela Merkel, the German chancellor, according to preliminary poll results.
The Greens won 24.2 per cent in wealthy Baden-Wuerttemberg state while the Social Democracts (SPD) finished at 23.2 per cent, meaning Greens state leader Winfried Kretschmann will lead a Greens-SPD state government.
"This is a day that has strongly changed the political landscape in Germany," Claudia Roth, the Greens party chairwoman, said in Berlin.
Losing Baden-Wuerttemberg, which lies on the French and Swiss borders and is home to car makers Daimler and Porsche, would weaken Merkel''s grip on her party and make it even harder for her to pass legislation in the upper house of parliament.
The Baden-Wuerttemberg state election has been overshadowed by anger at the Merkel''s nuclear policy, as well as decisions on Libya and the euro.
The Christian Democrats had held power there for almost six decades.
Nuclear concerns
Some in the media have attributed the Greens' lead, at least in part, to the nuclear crisis in Japan.
Merkel had planned to extend the lifetime of Germany''s nuclear reactors, four of which are based in Baden-Wuerttemberg, but the disaster in Japan prompted her to suspend this decision for three months.
She also temporarily shut off the seven oldest reactors pending a safety review.
Nick Spicer, Al Jazeera''s correspondent reporting from Stuttgart, said that the decision had not played well with voters, most of whom are opposed to nuclear power.
"People here didn't like it when she [Merkel] extended the life of those nuclear plants and then she announced, after the Japanese disaster, a re-think, of her policy," he said.
"But most people are seeing that as political opportunism, a ploy to distract voters from her policy which the majority of Germans actually don't support."
In addition, conservative voters are critical of Berlin's abstention from a UN Security Council vote to create a no-fly zone in Libya, a break with Germany''s Western allies.
German media has also been critical of Merkel for agreeing at an EU summit on Thursday to commit to a huge new rescue fund for struggling Eurozone economies.
Merkel''s future could be clouded if the CDU loses. When Gerhard Schroeder, Merkel''s SPD predecessor as chancellor, lost North Rhine-Westphalia in 2005, he called a snap election and lost.

Parents Give Gift Of Music To Dallas Hospital As A Thank You
June 08, 2012 - CBSDFW.com
Brent and Megan Marshall say even before he was born, music made their son Cohen happy.
"We got a 4-D picture of the baby," explained Brent. "We happened to be playing a song at the time, and he smiled. It's crazy."
"We did the earphones on my belly when I was pregnant with him as well," Megan added.
While in utero, Cohen was diagnosed with several heart defects.
So the Tulsa, OK couple chose Children's Medical Center in Dallas to help.
Cohen's first surgery was at two-days-old. While he fought to stay alive, Brent and Megan noticed music continued to calm their boy.
"You could tell by his vitals when he listened to music, they were a little more steady," explained Megan. "We felt like it was soothing to him."
Cohen lived only 12 days. So to honor his life, the Marshalls, with their healthy 10-month-old twins in tow, donated 20 iPod Touch devices to Children's Cardiac Intensive Care Unit.
"It's a lot of waiting," explained a tearful Brent. "It's a lot of worrying. A single song can pick you up. It can take you away. So those are things that really helped us, and we think it'll help others too. We thought it'd be a great way for famililes to be interactive with each other, even if people couldn't be here. So just plug it in."
The Marshalls say being at the hospital brought back the emotions and the memories of their firstborn son–memories they were able to preserve and replay. And now, thanks to their donation, other families can preserve theirs too.
"Pictures, the video, those are things we're really really glad we have. We want people to have access too, so they can always have those memories, no matter how long they have their children with them."
Music Therapist Shannon Wilson at Children's says the right kind of music can help support a baby's healing, improve oxygen saturation, and help steady a baby's vital signs and heart rate.
