Dry Heaves From The Literati

The people over at the Harper's Index have either gone a little bats or are on vacation; maybe giving the interns a shot at the big time. Usually a funny and disturbing collection of ephemera from around the globe, the tongue is now venturing out of the cheek and spouting outright activism:

Phone number of The G.I. Rights Hotline, a nongovernmental service for U.S. military personnel : 800-394-9544

Further, just when you thought Harper's couldn't be more snarky, they’ve gone and out-snarkied themselves:

Number of House members in 1979 who voted against making Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday a national holiday: 133

Number who are still in the House: 9

Number who are Vice President : 1

Oh snap! Or maybe not. Pull it together guys. Really.
