    How to Become an A@#hole | Newsweek Books

    This book looks great - it's a satire on a really particular self-help genre that is super popular right now. The sad thing is, the author got the idea for the book because he was told he was too nice to ever advance. So, he experimented with being a major a@#hole, got the idea for this book, and is having the last laugh. Good for him. I also love all the various euphemisms for a@#hole in the article (like "orifice").

    Quoted: A satirical new book serves up a 10-step program on how to be, well … an a--hole "I was the nicest guy in the world—and it was killing me," he writes in "A$$hole: How I Got Rich and Happy by Not Giving a Damn About Anyone and How You Can Too," his new mock-help masterpiece.

    what claudia kishi wore - blogspot

    LOL an entire blog devoted to the outfits of Claudia Kishi from "The Baby Sitters Club" series!! She truly is the original Asian hipster chic.

    Quoted: "I smiled to myself when Claudia appeared. Her long black hair was tucked into a wide-brimmed purple rain hat with colorful Native American designs painted on the brim. She wore a matching purple slicker with identical designs along the hem. Even her umbrella matched!"
