Cat and Girl is possibly the smartest comic out there. Why aren’t you reading it right now? Plus, if you give Dorothy money, she will draw what she spends it on. I like the donation cartoons almost as much as the comic strip itself. Drunk librarians are featured today. (thanks Scott)

I’m a bit late with this, but here’s one for all you children’s librarians out there: Klingon Fairy Tales (from McSweeny’s)

"Goldilocks Dies With Honor at the Hands of the Three Bears"

"Snow White and the Six Dwarves She Killed With Her Bare Hands and the Seventh Dwarf She Let Get Away as a Warning to Others"

An exerpt from one of my favorite poems by Caroline Knox:
The Crybaby at the library.

It is raining all over inside the library.
Parts of the brick walls are curling up
and plaster is falling on the heads and beards of students.
It is very dangerous for the books.

… 

A precious incunabulum inside a glass case
is swimming gently as if in a dishpan.
Tiny letters and pieces of gold that were put there in 1426
are lifting off and turning into scum.
