I got a shock this weekend, I discovered that one of my friends actually reads this blog and even follows the links!
So this is a special post for SJ (and Laurie too):
Abebooks. Apparently all of these books really are in print...somewhere.
Here's a sample you'll definitely appreciate if you tried the Roadkill Rug site a few days ago:
Flattened Fauna
Roger M. Knutson
A definitive guide for the millions of people who seldom see a wild animal that has not been flattened by dozens of vehicles and baked in the sun to an indistinct fur, scale or feather-covered patty. Flattened Fauna is unique, bizarre, intelligent and quietly, incidentally amusing. In it is a wealth of fascinating information about the eating, mating and locomotion habits of more than three dozen of the most common roadside animals in North America
All Editions: $2.50 - $34.36Meanwhile (and still for Essers and Laurie) I'm not sure exactly what
Putorius means or why someone would use it as a
keyword in a photo library but it sounds cool enough for me to want to drop it casually into a conversation one day if you two don't get there first.
Oh yeah, and Happy St David's Day.
