At its heart, Pearls Before Swine is the comic strip tale of two friends: an arrogant Rat who thinks he knows it all and a slow-witted Pig who doesn't know any better. Together, this pair offers caustic commentary on humanity's quest for the unattainable. Dilbert cartoonist Scott Adams says that Pearls is "one of the few comics that make me laugh out loud." The strip has twice won the National Cartoonists Society's Reuben division award for Best Newspaper Comic Strip – in 2003 and in 2006.

Books don’t require electricity to open them.

I’ll bet Stephan enjoyed drawing this one, since it was Rat who got a volume chucked at his head!

Maybe a tablet computer won’t inflict much damage, but ever been hit in the head by a tower computer?! Or an old CRT monitor?!?!
I can’t believe people used to pay $1000 for a set of encyclopedias that were out of date by the time they were printed! Wikipedia may not be accurate, but at least it’s current.

Independant audits have confirmed that Wikipedia is neither more nor less accurate than the paper based encyclopedias.

Try using your finger as a book mark on your web-page!

Also, books don’t take better than a minute to start either.
