Your Danish Cartoons Hangover Update

* the cartoonist Kurt Westergaard is selling 1000 signed and numbered copies of his bomb-in-turban Muhammed cartoon for $340 apiece. The money will go to the International Free Press society. Please build your own joke with the made-up word "blasphemeBay" in it.

* the writer and editor Ezra Levant's book is re-opening for debate his treatment by human rights and citizenship commission after putting the Danish Muhammed cartoons in his Western Standard.

* Hans-Peter Geissen tries to puzzle out why people became so upset about the Danish Cartoons, both in the "looking at the cartoons" sense and the "how did this become such a big story" sense.
