Today is "Chicken Day". Please have a look at Tai Yasu "Ondri-san to Wan (Rooster and dog)". No matter how many times I read it, it's still sur-real and funny. It is a story about a chicken peddling eggs by himself.

This copy of Moby Dick is very pretty, and it has some useful illustrations, including a map! On the back is that fantastic quote explaining why being cozy in a warm blanket in a cold room is infinitely more comfortable than being cozy in a warm room sans blanket.
