Given my love of Hodgman and my love of the sections on hoboes in the book containing COMPLETE WORLD KNOWLEDGE, is it any wonder that my favorite American Girl is Kit, who spent a summer with hobos?
I shall think on this a while. |

| EXCERPTS FROM THE MOST IMPORTANT BOOK IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD |
[Aug. 22nd, 2006|10:58 pm] |
(subject text taken from a comic by David Rees, viewable at http://www.areasofmyexpertise.com)
I was going to share these with ![[info]](http://www.journalfen.net/img/userinfo.gif) sophysduckling in a comment in her journal, but I ended up quoting so much that I'm posting it here to link her to. I only pulled some of the easiest quotables (ie: shorter bits, since some of them are rather long if you want to understand the whole thing) that I thought she would like best, of anything I could quote.
But! The book is really awesome, and everyone should check behind the cut to see what kind of things are in it!
PS: I paraphrased or left sentences out in many places, but did not always indicate this. However, I believe that I have cited everything fairly well, according to MLA, which I never remember as clearly as I'd like. I can never remember how to format the citations. Oh well.

PS AGAIN: MY ICON IS FROM THE SECTION ON HOBOES, SPECIFICALLY THE SECTION ON HOBO SIGNS. WHEN YOU SEE AN UPPERCASE H SURROUNDED BY 16 RAYS, USUALLY WRITTEN WITH CHALK, IT INDICATES "IT IS TIME FOR HOBOES TO TAKE OVER THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT." OR, AS I PUT IT, "TIME FOR THE HOBO REVOLUTION!"
(PS #3: This post was copied from my LJ so that I could share it with everyone on JF without having to look up the link all the time.) |
