Go, Buy: McSweeney’s Benefit Sale

* it looks like I'm not on the McSweeney's mailing list, but luckily Dirk Deppey is, so he has word of their latest sale, starting today, designed to ameliorate some of the debt incurred because of someone else's bankruptcy. Subscriptions $5 off, new books 30 percent off, backlist 50 percent off, and I assume all of this information will be replicated in their store starting around right now. They have both published comics and published illustration by cartoonists; anecdotal evidence suggests they have also caused every person that goes on a second date with a writer under the age of 40 to ask why their dinner companion isn't being published there.

* in another effort, this one designed to support the New York Foundation for the Arts (NYFA), you can bid on these two parody cartoons from the great R. Sikoryak, which were used in the Daily Show book.
