LOLCat Book Out Later This Month
 The LOLcats meme which combines adorable cat pictures with bad kitty grammar is moving to book form. The book called I Can Has Cheezburger?: A LOLcat Colleckshun will hit stores on October 7th. LOLcats are pretty easy to find online at the icanhascheezburger.com website and elsewhere so it is unclear whether the internet sensation will translate into print book sales. t It may generate sales if people decide to gift the book for the holidays. The daily calendar format would probably work much better for the lolcats.

Dave Barry Gives Some Financial Advice
Dave Barry talks to Newsweek about his latest book, Dave Barry's Money Secrets: Like: Why Is There a Giant Eyeball on the Dollar? (Crown). Barry freely admits that he has no credentials that would qualify him from writing a financial advice book, but doesn't see why that should have stopped him from writing one.
Newsweek: What makes you, Dave Barry, qualified to give financial advice?
Dave Barry: I looked around and I realized that I was the only person who hadn't written a book about financial advice. And I thought, either I write it or Suze Orman was going to have to write her 97th book. Plus I was running out of topics, so it was this or Su Doku.
Newsweek: Did you do any research?
Dave Barry: I read Donald Trump's book. It's called: How to Get Rich. It took about an hour to read it, which I'd say is an hour longer than it took him to write it. It's like this collection of random neural firings from Donald. I have a chapter [in my book] that really summarizes it including some quotations.
Barry also says that he will go back to his column to cover the 2008 presidential elections because "There's nothing funnier than the way we pick presidents in this country."
