# Either I'm Funny...

{% file src="" %}

All these are images except for one quote in the fourth row. Looking up this partial quote identifies it as being said by the author **Haruki Murakami** (full quote "*Either I'm funny or the world's funny. I don't know which. The bottle and lid don't fit. It could be the bottle's fault or the lid's fault. In either case, there's no denying that the fit is bad.*"), which is an indicator that all the images are book covers of Murakami's books. Identifying all 14 books is the first step.

Each image also contained a number, which when used as an index into each book title, gives the phrase **KAWANISHI KOMBI**
