We bid adieu and merci to Diamond Comics for sponsoring this week's Unshelved. Remember to sign up for Diamond Bookshelf to keep abreast on the latest and greatest on comics and graphic novels.

Our pal John Shableski at Diamond also asked us to let you know about SPLAT 2008, a graphic novel symposium at the New York Center for Independent Publishing. He says:

This is an incredible day of educational programming for librarians, teachers, creators and publishers. There are group discounts for librarians, teachers and groups of students.

I wish I were going. If you make it, drop me a line and let me know how it was.

Bill: Hi, I just got this MacBook from apple.com yesterday, but the keyboard doesn't work right. Can I exchange it here at the Apple Store?

Genius Berry: No.

Bill: Please?

Genius Berry: Well... okay.

Bill: Sweet.
