Ok everyone who's into this week's theme has the William Steig books CDB! and CDC!, right?

(Sorry, have a new baby and can't wait to read them with her and laugh my butt off when she's a little older)

any of these that can't be sussed in a matter of seconds is, to me, stretching things too far. and opr290 (or opr280) is a real reach, IMHO.

[Sigh] Binary code looks so beautiful. I think I must have been a computer in a previous birth. Seriously. What is beautiful about it is the economy. 'You have just two characters - now speak'. 'Okay. No problem'. Clackety clackety 11000111 1000111. Umberto Eco devoted two pages to this in his book.
