Dear Readers:



AbeBooks now boasts 116 "crazy and strange titles about every oddball aspect of life you could possibly imagine and a few things you couldn't possibly imagine." If you really do seek perfekk gifts for those peeps who already own everything, search no more. Simply visit "the bizarre, odd and downright weird" treasury currently on offer at the AbeBooks online store. With titles such as An Alien Who's Who, History of Shit, The Armpit of Desire, Why Do I Vomit?, Toilet-Paper Origami, The Haunted Vagina, The Go-Go Dancer Who Stole My Viagra, People Who Don't Know They're Dead, Gangsta Rap Colo[u]ing Book, The Thermodynamics of Pizza, Fart Proudly and The Who's Who of British Beheadings, how can you possibly miss?



Your mission, should you choose to accept it? Craft a post-card poem or story incorporating as many of the 116 featured titles in your 2000-character text as bearable :) . . . Why? Somebody Else Is on the Moon, obvo . . . Um, er, riiiight :): You will snag a personally inscribed hard-cover copy of the rapturously received novel (published in the U.K., U.S. and CA), The Day the Falls Stood Still, by Cathy Marie Buchanan, freshly shortlisted for the Canada Also Reads crown (which Tish Cohen will certainly champion excellently in behalf of CMB's stunner).
