Interlibrary Loan of the day


When Captain ILL saw this book, Giant Clams, he had a flashback to the great clam invasion of 1698. No doubt most readers out there are familiar with Arlo Guthrie's masterpiece: The Story of Reuben Clamzo and His Strange Daughter In the Key of A, but many of you may not be aware that it is based on a true story. Captain ILL had a chance to participate in the giant clam attack due to a mishap with a time machine. The Captain may not know one end of a clampoon from another, but he knows how to boot evil, and you don't find creatures much eviler than giant clams! Unfortunately, there are still a few of these monsters out there, so if you live near the coast, you may want to join the Clamshell Alliance, and definitely keep a clampoon under your bed in case you hear the pitter patter of little giant clam feet in the middle of the night ...
