Beginning Wednesday, the newest "librarians-in-residence" at the Toronto Free Library will be the conceptual comedy duo Life of a Craphead (Amy Lam and Jon McCurley). These are the guys responsible for installing the most remote Queen Video location ever at the Leslie Spit (near the lighthouse, where someone actually went to rent Y Tu Mama Tambien). They've also erected a giant exploding paper-mache volcano at Trinity Bellwoods and carved out rumble strips on Yonge Street to create a "Musical Road" near Sam the Record Man.

Sending typed letters, postcards, or small packages of treats via snail mail is sadly going the way of the dinosaur. It’s a rare surprise to find a handwritten letter in the mailbox among the pizza menus and flyers for the local gym.

For the receiver, opening a mailed masterpiece is extra special and a cause for celebration.
