<description>The winner of the Tournament of Books has been announced. The bracketed competition resulted in a faceoff between Tom McCarthy&apos;s The Remainder, which was an amazing paperback original released last year that I read and loved and then promptly didn&apos;t write a goddamn thing about for some weird reason, and Junot Diaz&apos;s The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao. The winner is The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, which I predicted in this post here on Slog last month.

<description><![CDATA[<p>Didn't write a thing!?</p>

<p>That is a mystery.... Maybe I can add something to the mix of mixologists everywhere.</p>

<p>Interesting facts found in the sections of the paper rarely looked at by everyone all at once.</p>

<p>The International Examiner<br />
Volume 35 No. 3 2-6/19,2008</p>

<p>File it under weird that I see thieves in the night and possibly this little stain is obsessive... </p>

<p>yet in a world compulsive and ordered on high by the bleach brigade, I noticed that if you fold this edition of<br />
 <br />
The International Examiner in in half, </p>

<p>bottom to top with a slightly lowered end on the right corner of the back page.....</p>

<p> then the dish is upside down... you will see the letters poking out PRSRT STD.</p>

<p><br />
Ouch and racially ugly... </p>

<p>unless of course you can prove that old school CIA phone book tricks are not used in everyday tele-typed innuendo.</p>

<p>God help us if the Yen falls and the Chinese take this seriously as a threat assesment. </p>

<p>Be careful what you think... </p>

<p>the Moral Majority and Privatised Postage of the U>S> male is at STRIKE... and your pretty flowers....</p>

<p>Treat then NICE, puhleeaase.</p>

<p>This is why I think it's important to scan the papers...</p>

<p> and not be dirty minded in bodily forms... </p>

<p><br />
Interesting fact <br />
No. 2</p>

<p><br />
The want ads in the times section here in Seattle.... In the Pet Sections... lot's of listings for names with POOS on the end.</p>

<p>poos?</p>

<p>What are you afraid of ???</p>

<p>How about the lyric... </p>

<p>" A humiliating Kick In The Crotch?"</p>

<p><br />
( hi-shy-knees... at your will and command)</p>

<p><br />
Personally apeaking I don't know to many nice dog and cat ( i'll get to that in a second ) people who seriously want other people to rename their section lates.</p>

<p>Meaning? </p>

<p>You'll also find kittens listed as <br />
Rag Dolls...</p>

<p>What the F#CK?....</p>

<p>Well.... </p>

<p>I can't say why the editors and type setters line it in that way... yet here is an interesting re-adaptational posit....</p>

<p><br />
What do you think the ATF,FBI,SECRET SERVICE and the United States Marine Core would do if Attack Dog Trainers made a bunch of those padded arm protectors with George W. Bush and Dick Cheney's face on them???</p>

<p><br />
Do you think they'd get kick out of it or would they sell better in Europe?</p>

<p> What about Wyoming and Dallas?</p>

<p>Ad Watchers Beware!!!!!!!!</p>

<p><br />
Wall Street.... Paulson for Supercop on the marketwatch huh.... </p>

<p>Sounds like a high tech re-address to the Gettysburg Electoral Collegiate Semi-Final Tort Re-form Act. <br />
Way to Go 2012.</p>

<p><br />
P.R. Wins Again!!!!</p>

<p>(-#350 TRILLION points of tsk,tsk,tsk <br />
because terminal tension was buying Jacksons rejected in the concert constant supporters.....)</p>

<p><br />
And... U2 got a 12 year deal.</p>

<p><br />
USA Today March 31st 2008</p>

<p><br />
Hey University of Washington Husky Students at the HUB,</p>

<p> I left a Oil Pastel on the Board by the Info desk a month or so ago of </p>

<p>Thom Yorke <br />
Radiohead</p>

<p> my adaptation of his </p>

<p>Drunken Punch Up at a Wedding... </p>

<p>(although I would not wish him onto the cross again for all the secret code in Dick Cheney's safe)</p>

<p> and because he's got the lyric </p>

<p><br />
" In Rainbows "......</p>

<p>' won't take my off the ball again', </p>

<p>I'd like to thank you if you let him know it's a small gift of 'pleasure' to see 'ol lazy eye himself throw in the first pitch for opening snapshot of Baseball season.</p>

<p><br />
Please, no forked tounges for the Queen of England unless XTC's Andy Partridge ok's his Garden.</p>

<p>I loved "Remainder." And I never would have read it if it weren't for Bailey/Coy, God bless them.</p>]]></description>
