A wrapup of last week's issue! (As you know, I get the new New Yorker on Tuesdays at best, Thursdays at worst, so it's still this week's issue as far as I'm concerned.)

A review of the brand-new book The New Yorker Book of Cartoon Puzzles and Games! (Update: Review coming soon. Jury duty called, and I'm spending quite a bit of my time down at the Kings County Supreme Court building these days. The good news: They have snap peas at the farmers' market outside the courthouse! Tuesdays and Thursdays.)

And an announcement!

Meanwhile, at The Lady Killigrew Cafe in Montague, Mass., there are only two programs on the TV at the counter where you order: a live feed of two eagles in their nest, or the Sox game. Below the cafe is a rushing stream and a used bookstore with a spectacular collection of stuff found in books (letters, tickets, maps, photos), now pasted on the bathroom walls. Can you think of a better setup? Apparently, John "I'm a PC" Hodgman composed some of The Areas of My Expertise there, but it's not known whether he had the long-brewed iced coffee and the grilled Nutella sandwich. For his sake, I hope he did.
