So Peacay's blog and book BibliOdyssey are getting some attention: a nice post on Edutopia, that was picked up today by Andrew Sullivan. Congratulations, Peacay.
From the Edutopia review:
This man isn't looking for any particular thing; rather, it seems he's looking for every beautiful, peculiar, or haunting piece of art that has ever graced the pages of a book. But what he's looking for exactly is not important -- what matters is that he's gathering up the gems and oddities he finds for a visually rich site called BibliOdyssey, a splendid classroom-discussion tool and entrée into art and its history.

Did we not do this once already??
Exactly.
Hey, this is my local pub and this shit is now starting to feel a bit embarrassing. I'm grateful, truly, that there has been a nice reception around the traps and all but...
..this is like the hooker from whose belly button I'm busily snorting some rather excellent blow, has been moved from the plush satin boudoir in my batcave back onto the pool table in the front bar. It was oddly exciting having you watch the first time but now I'd like my debauchery to be had in private if at all possible. I'm shy like that. And please stop touching her.

Congrats. But a bit of [more inside] would do wonders for the front page. ;-)
Oh, and anyone who has actually tried to huff blow from the human body knows that it is a very impractical thing to do. And not really worth repeating.

peacay, I love your blog, and kudos on the book. Don't worry, they can't all hear me. I'm whispering!

Well, not only do I hate you & hate your work, but that's my girlfriend, not your hooker, and you'd better just take your hands off her right now, or else!
