On the Shelf
- Presented without further comment: John Updike’s shorts.
- What if The Road, The Corrections, and Wonder Boyswere children’s books? (The illustration of Alfred Lambert falling from the cruise ship is especially well done.)

And now, the legal world is in a subtle, possibly endless civil war over how attorneys should advertise their services (and whether they should advertise at all).”
