Non-Interlibrary Loan of the day

Everything Scrabble is not an ILL; Captain ILL found it in the Sno-Isle Libraries' catalog. However, since Scrabble is very near and dear to the Captain's heart, and Scrabble-themed ILLs are extremely rare, he felt an exception could be made in this instance. Unfortunately, Captain ILL is no G.I. Joel; Scrabble-playing is not among his many superpowers. In fact, losing a game of Scrabble is not an unusual occurrence for the poor Captain. It may seem strange that Captain ILL would enjoy something so much that he's not very good at, but he is so very good at so many other things, like catching schoolbuses that have fallen off bridges, or rescuing kittens from trees, that it's good to be reminded that he is, after all, only human; albeit with a splendid array of superhuman powers. So Captain ILL will continue to take late night drives down lonely highways hoping that he will be picked up by a UFO and granted the Scrabble skills that he so clearly deserves; that certainly seems easier than reading this book.
