Alan Shalleck, 76, who worked as a co-writer of Curious George books and producer of more than 100 tie-in cartoons, was found dead yesterday in his driveway at a Boynton Beach, Fla., senior-citizen retirement village.

Yow. This is big news for book-lovers.

Now that Google has caught up, I am seeing a healthy increase in CPM as Google searchers are going directly to the right page, instead of being redirected to an index page.

whatever lurks in the north, we’re about to find out.

Ah: The Winds of Winter.
