Is anyone interested in writing a review of some kind
for Oakland.pm?

If so, let me know.
If you wish to review an in print O'Reilly book,
I likely can get you a review copy.
[The book reviewed need not be an O'Reilly book.
But O'Reilly is who I know how to get review copies from.]

Oh, a review could be on all sorts of things.
For example:
* a Perl book (duh).
* a book in some loose way related to Perl
* a Linux distribution.
* a talk.
* an article
* or use your imagination.
It should have something to do with Perl, somehow.
But, hey, if "Even Grues Get Full" is related to Perl,
it shouldn't be too hard to rationalize that.
And we do have a review of "Even Grues Get Full"
on our site.

[Rationalization of connection 
between "Even Grues Get Full" and Perl:
"Even Grues Get Full" is the latest compendium
of the User Friendly on-line Comic Strip
which is filled with open source humor
and is a part of open source culture.
Perl is open source software 
and is part of open source culture.
Pearl is a character in the User Friendly Comic Strip.]

If writing a review appeals to you at all, let me know.
This does not have to be especially difficult.
If you have reservations, let me know;
perhaps, they can be disappeared.
