 Bug girl, always a fount of information, has alerted me to the fact that many issues of the World Weekly News are now online through Google Books. Paging through the issues sends me to a few places in my past: collaging, zines, and the simple delight my brother found in buying those things at the supermarket. I am not sure exactly what he loved about them, but for me the benign absurdity was always a welcome distraction from more menacing ridiculousness.

See you there.

Hooray! Robin talks with Corrine Mucha over at inkstuds. I love her work, and will review My Alaskan Summer soon soon soon.

Your blog rules, that's for doing it!
Thanks, Greg. And, even though everybody knows, I am going to say it: Tugboat Press is amazing.
True confession: I had a subscription to the Weekly World News. I may even have renewed it once.
