spacial delivery!

Steven and I are watching an episode of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon from last week.  So Jimmy does this thing where he shows books you should NOT read.  This was one of the books (and it truly is a real, legit book!)... we couldn't stop laughing...


I looked it up on Amazon... the summary is pretty intriguing:


"HUMANS OR HEMNOIDS:
AN UNBEARABLE CHOICE!
Planet Dilbia is in a crucial location for both humans and their adversaries, the Hemnoids. Therefore making friends with the Dilbians and establishing a human presence there is of the utmost importance, which may be a problem, since the bearlike Dilbians stand some nine feet tall, and have a high regard for physical prowess. They're not impressed by human technology, either. A real man, er, bear doesn't need machines to do his work for him.
But Dilbians are impressed by sharp thinking, and some have expressed a grudging admiration for the logical (and usually sneaky) mental maneuvers that the human 'shorties' have used to get themselves out of desperate jams. Just maybe that old human craftiness will win over the Dilbians to the human side. If not, we lose a nexus, and the Dilbians will learn just how unbearable Hemnoids can be...."


Also, this was in one of the customer reviews... which I love: 


"Fans of Dickson should be advised this book is an omnibus edition of three previously released works, 
'Spacial Delivery,' 'Spacepaw,' and 'The Law-Twister Shorty.'"


HA! :-)  This is for real folks... fo realz.  


So.... the question of the day.... what do bears do in the woods?
