Two worlds become one
My two favorite things have finally merged: books and food. That's right! All around the world on April 1st bibliophiles, book artists, and food lovers gather to celebrate the book arts and the (literal!) ingestion of culture for the Edible Book Festival. Participants create edible books that are exhibited, documented then consumed. Some of my personal favorites from this year event held at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign are: Robinson Mouss-o, Grape Moments in Literary History, Clockwork Orange & Lard of the Rings.

edible books made me think of this:
http://www.amazon.com/Incredible-Book-Eating-Boy-Oliver-Jeffers/dp/0399247491/ref=pd_bbs_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1208618252&sr=8-2
do you have any idea what kind of havoc can be wreaked upon one's insides by eating paper and ink? this book is an outrage! i want it removed from all shelves and schools! what are we trying to teach our children!
that's what i would say if i were a douchebag.
it helps if you read the post and follow the link before you comment...i mean, if you were a douchebag...i mean not reading the post and commenting and not making any sense would make you a douchebag, which is what you did, obviously, but your not douchebag, even though thats what you did.
my douchebaggery was in response not to your post, but to the book which big al linked.
so there.
oh, well i couldn't get that link to work...now im the douchebag.
