Kobo are running a promo for Vistaria Has Fallen again, but in the meantime, I have permanently dropped […]

Atlas Obscura reported recently that “50 Escaped Baboons Shut Down a Paris Zoo“, which caught my eye.

Not because America has a national day for doughy round dietary disasters, but the reason for the day is interesting. Of course, there’s history attached to it. D’uh.
