What?
Written by Jen on November 3, 2010 – 5:52 pmThe timing for this is perfect, as it was my first reaction to our new Governor and Senator in Pennsylvania. I think I miss my taxation without representation.

Happy Banned Books Week!
Written by SBF on September 27, 2010 – 12:33 pmEr, I’m not sure why this week goes from Saturday-Saturday, but here it is, Banned Books Week 2010 from September 25 – October 2, 2010.
Banned Books Week is the only national celebration of the freedom to read. It was launched in 1982 in response to a sudden surge in the number of challenges to books in schools, bookstores and libraries. More than a thousand books have been challenged since 1982. The challenges have occurred in every state and in hundreds of communities.
On the list of the top 10 most challenged books for 2009 were four I read in school: To Kill a Mockingbird, Catcher in the Rye, The Color Purple and The Chocolate War. Sheesh. Kids today are screwed.
