i don’t think amazon needs to be protected, it seems to me its one of the big factors causing these publishing houses to merge.

So sad we laugh at the monopolization of publishing. It sure helped kill the local bookstore.

A true random sampling of penguins would no doubt include at least some that are crippled or otherwise unable to march.

Sounds like a good topic for Nate Silver to address.

Great movie: “March of the Random Penguins” — can random penguins even march?

Penguin House
It’s like Animal House but oddly specific.

They are missing out by not calling it Random Penguin. That’s totally what I’m going to call it.

Unfortunately the company is going to be called Penguin Random House instead of Random Penguin.

I can’t wait to see the Random Penguin logo. Will it be like “Where’s Waldo” or a picture of a penguin photobombing in Times Square?
