Hawaii Schools Lack Librarians, Where Do I Sign Up?

According to the Star Advertiser, about 16 percent of Hawaii's public schools are without a librarian, despite the fact that all have a functioning library.  Okay, I will bite the bullet and go to Hawaii.  I knew it would come to this.  I knew that this day would come and I would have to stand up and deliver myself into the belly of the beast, the end of the earth, the land of palm and fire.

 

Truly, this is hell on earth.

I once heard Christopher Moore say (and I am paraphrasing), "Living in Hawaii is like dating a supermodel.  After a while you just want conversation."  Well, I am willing to dive into the Hawaiian Hades if I never again have the type of daily conversations that suck out my soul.  While I have never been to Hawaii, I would gladly throw myself on this tropical grenade.

I know now what this calling of the librarian, a call that sounds suspiciously like the the pages of a book rustling, would lead me to uncharted disasters in need of relief.  If we can help but one library, one class of surfer dudes, just one hula dancer, then my sacrifice would have not been in vain.  May God have mercy on my well tanned soul.

The Stupidest Angel: A Recommendation

Christopher Moore's "heartwarming tale of Christmas terror" centers around a dumb-ass angel granting a Christmas wish and nearly bringing about the zombie apocalypse.  Yep, that is about all I need to say.  

Here are a list of the people that will like this book:

Christopher Moore fans - Let's face it, you probably already own it.

Zombie Lovers - Thanks to the last few years, there are a lot more of you out there.

Comedy/Horror fans - Right up your dark alley filled with rubber chickens.

People really tired of Christmas - It may just get you back in the spirit, what with all the swords and guns and brain eating.

Anyone named Raziel - There is just not enough representation of this name.

Frank - Yep.  You, sir, are gonna love it.

If you have not already picked this gem off the shelf, then get to it.  A refreshing take on the zombie attack, much like Shaun of the Dead.  I can not recommend this enough.
