"The New Phone Books Are Here!!"
Monday July 14, 2008
Ok, if you've never seen the commercial where the happy, ecstatic people are running around with the newly-released phone book, then you're definitely not getting this joke. That's ok. But, I am pretty excited about the recent release of the 2009 Writers Digest. I've been waiting...and waiting...seems it hit my local bookstore over the holidays.

“The New Phone Books are Here!!!” may well have become a commercial, but credit properly belongs to Steve Martin in his comedy movie, “The Jerk”. He yelled this excitedly to all who would listen, and added, “Do you know what this kind of publicity can do for us???”
