Even More Tweets We Like
Because Twitter never sleeps, here are even more tweets we like.
(Note: the image above is old; it’s Shaq teasing Oprah about tweeting using all caps. I still find it amusing.)
Here’s a tip from the Library of Congress about book preservation. I think it will also make for better book presentation on the shelf.

Rattlesnake Roundup is Real-Life Whacking Day
Some of you may recall the Whacking Day episode of The Simpsons, in which residents of the town of Springfield whack snakes with sticks. It’s a tradition. Turns out there is a real-life version of Whacking Day called Rattlesnake Roundup.
Here’s a link to the script of The Simpsons’ episode at snpp.com. The TV Guide synopsis, also via that site: “The soulful sound of Barry White and a key discovery by Bart—who was expelled from school—help Lisa in her efforts to save Springfield’s snakes from the annual Whacking Day.”
It happens to be an awesome episode, in no small part due to the presence of Mr. Barry White. The fact that there is an actual event that is even remotely similar to what was on The Simpsons is awful. Wendy Townsend, writing for CNN.com, agrees.
Again, in case you missed it the first time:
Oh. So. Creepy.
Opinion: ‘Rattlesnake Roundup’ teaches cruelty is fun – CNN.com.
