This is a great site dedicated to the art of book cover design. Designers and enthusiasts post and comment on some of the most inspiring cover designs you've ever seen.

Just a quick follow up to our quiz the other day. Nobody got them all right, but we'll be sending a T shirt off to Tom for the getting so many right in such a short amount of time. In case your curious, the answers were:

I'm new here at YBNBY, so I don't think you've heard about my dream job, which is to be a professional "Book-Cover Reviewer". Don't get me wrong. I love reading; I spend a great part of my day reading. But the covers? Man, they can tell you something, no matter how that old saying goes.

As far as I can tell, Judith Regan at Regan Books, which is an imprint of Harper Collins, is the worst offender in the field. If you'd pay me, I'd go through and review everyone one of her covers. But since you're so cheap, I'm only reviewing two, sort of. I'm also going to touch on Paris Hilton's latest tome, published by Simon & Schuster. The cover doesn't particularly offend, but ferfucksake, someone has to stop this girl or her ghostwriters.

Those who watched the American Idol auditions last night may recall the wonderful performance put on by one Rhonetta Johnson, who claimed she was going to be famous, and who's star quality far outshone Paula Abdul's. A quick trip over the Office of the Sherrfif for Mecklenburg Co., North Carolina reveals the full extent of her fame. A search for Johnson, Rhonetta reveals a variety of rap sheets that include larceny, DUI, lying to a police officer, resisting arrest and assault with a deadly weapon.

Nothing really connects these two ad clips that came across my desk at the same time, apart from the fact that they both leverage men's insatiable fixation with boobs.

Catching Sailfish from Kayaks.

I know I shouldn't post this. My husband will totally want to make this our next vacation.
You'll see it on the CBS early show: "DNAgal killed in bizarre but tragic kayaking sailfishing accident."
They'll have video. It will be posted on YBNBY.
Sigh.

You guys here about this? Found dead in his own bedroom. Man, that sucks. Nice Guy Eddie was awesome.

Thanks to Pat for sending in a new video promoting The Village Voice, and just about searing my retinas with the above image in the process. Man, I did NOT need to see that today.

(This issue is on sale today by the way, for those who want to admire the cover in person).

A classic exchange on a messageboard is given the YTMND treatment in Vahnataigetspwned (thanks, Brian)

An Australian couple were walking along the beach when they stumbled across a 32lb ball of Sperm Whale vomit. While that sounds like the start of a gross out story, it actually turned out to be their lucky day. It seems sperm whale vomit, or Ambergris as it's known, is very rare and a prime component in perfumes, and the vomit has been valued at nearly $300,000. Read the full story here.
