I was browsing through the newest issue of Newsweek over lunch and found this ad. The library card pocket is real and the card is “stuck” to the pocket but can be removed with a little work. On the back of the card is an ad for the Buick Lucerne with “QuietTuning”. The ad is continued on the back of the page also. (Photo of other side also in flickr.)

Talk about a stereotypical view of the librrary. First, most libraries don’t use those pockets any more. Second, when was the last time you were in a quiet library?

My favorite travel blog Yu Hu Stewardess is asking your opinion of cell phones on planes. Do you want to sit next to someone yacking on their cell for hours? Submit your opinion.
