Design your own O'Reilly book... Have the staff at O'Reilly given your latest manuscript the cold shoulder? Can you never get Andy Oram to return your emails? Does Laurie Petrycki have a restraining order out against you? Has Tim -- the man himself -- told you to "bite the big one"? Believe me, I know how it feels.

This was posted already in January. It's cool though. I love the O'Reilly wood cuts and the little colophon explanations for their choices or animal for each language. I have a Python book with a field mouse of some sort on it (mmmm, dinner.)

Oops. Did a search for it, but forgot to change the date field. My humble apologies.

I ignored this the first time it was posted because I assumed it was a competition and I didn't like the intentional mispellings.

Anyway, fun post now that I see what it's about. Thanks hobbes.
