Just a little update on the library situation (so to speak). As this "goes to print", Regnery has published fifteen books in the PIG series (Politically Incorrect Guides). By the latest (one second ago) check of the NYPL catalog, library has five titles from these series available. And here are the amusing numbers:
PIG to American History - 58 available copies (when I checked it out, there were 95).
PIG to Darwinism and ID - 4 available copies (originally purchased 5).
PIG to English and American Lit - 1 available copy (originally purchased 2).
PIG to Global Warming - 0 available copies (originally purchased 3); one in storage (huh?); one missing and one lost - Al Gore's supporters falling on the sword for this one and stealing these two copies to the monetary detriment of themselves?
PIG to Constitution - 2 copies available (originally purchased 2); both constantly on hold for somebody else.
Burt Prelutsky - latest book just published (non-political, by the way), another book released few years ago - library catalog does not recognize this name.
One the bright side - 85 copies of Jerry Corsi's book and 72 of David Freddoso's still available on the shelf.
Latest Ann Coulter - 115 copies (some still on order); around quarter of them already on hand (my Dad's, among others), and 59 holds.
The general logic still escapes me, but 115 copies of the most denigrated rightie in the heart of New York - rock on, Ann!

Pretty colours on your blog right now. I LOVE peach. :)
On the topic of libraries, what gives with the BPL not having a single branch open on Sunday in Flatbush? Given there are no Book Drop-Off bins/slots, this waiting until a weekday to use the library is getting pretty lame!
I did not use BPL in hoot's age. You know me: as a general rule, I try not to do anything in Brooklyn, if I can help it:) Mid-Manhattan branch, on the other hand, is open on Sundays
