CNN has up a hilarious article about a dubious award that Tom Wolfe just received. It’s worth a look.

You’ve just given me a great idea for the next .4K competition… :smiley:

Oh please.

Hey, I like that stuff! What’s the matter
with those people?

‘His trembling fingers tore the thin
parachute silk from her heaving…’

not that I wouldn’t submit or anything.

Is that an entry??

Slan,
D.

perhaps I’ll work it into one. Though personally, I prefer the opposite stance.
(quitting now…bad girl. bad bad girl.)

I hope it involves ferules.

actually, I too was only thinking about ferules.
(um, whoa. Don’t we mean ferrules?)

See you later, dominator!

The only book I ever put down without finishing was his 'Bonfire of the Vanities." simply awful.

I don’t think I’ll ever use the word “slither” ever again now :boggle:

You might, but I don’t.

I will have to use otorhinolaryngological caverns in my entry.
I know some people have a thing for the “oto” and of course the common “liplock” involves _phary_ngeal but “Rhino”? Yuck!!! Of course I won’t even discuss the laryngeal.
