most of it was other people's words==all she had to do was copy and paste.

(2,397 posts)Does that imply that she knows streets and highways by heart? Can she recite something by heart? Or is this an art contest of some kind where you follow the numbers or something? Are crayons included?
Damn, Senator Franken has her beat on drawing the country. That he can do!

$2.60 - overpriced.
This literary classic is destined for the dollar store bins.

(9,350 posts)A few years ago when Borders (the bookstore) was closing I visited one of the stores just a few days before the store was going to close and there was a very large amount of unsold Sarah Palin books. I do not remember the book title; I just remember some customers were shocked and laughing.

(1,805 posts)for use as rolling papers. In fact, a pack of ZigZags is around $1.50 or so. Cheaper if by the case at Costco. Not that I would know anything about them. It's my husband, honestly. I gave it up so long ago I honestly can't remember. Ha, maybe that's why. We're leaving my husband's brain to science. Other than liking to watch golf, he's truly an amazing man.
I looked it up on Amazon, 304 pages. Lots of Snoop size joints!
Couldn't resist, but Amazon has a whole section dedicated to zig-zags. They sell pretty much everything!
But I'm sure it is inferior paper. You can't get high with Sarah. She's a downer!
They probably recycled pages from her last book.

(41,960 posts)'The Book of my Enemy Has Been Remaindered'
The book of my enemy has been remaindered
And I am pleased.
In vast quantities it has been remaindered
Like a van-load of counterfeit that has been seized
And sits in piles in a police warehouse,
My enemy's much-prized effort sits in piles
In the kind of bookshop where remaindering occurs.
Great, square stacks of rejected books and, between them, aisles
One passes down reflecting on life's vanities,
Pausing to remember all those thoughtful reviews
Lavished to no avail upon one's enemy's book --
For behold, here is that book
Among these ranks and banks of duds,
These ponderous and seeminly irreducible cairns
Of complete stiffs.
The book of my enemy has been remaindered
And I rejoice.
It has gone with bowed head like a defeated legion
Beneath the yoke.
What avail him now his awards and prizes,
The praise expended upon his meticulous technique,
His individual new voice?
Knocked into the middle of next week
His brainchild now consorts with the bad buys
The sinker, clinkers, dogs and dregs,
The Edsels of the world of moveable type,
The bummers that no amount of hype could shift,
The unbudgeable turkeys.
Yea, his slim volume with its understated wrapper
Bathes in the blare of the brightly jacketed Hitler's War Machine,
His unmistakably individual new voice
Shares the same scrapyart with a forlorn skyscraper
Of The Kung-Fu Cookbook,
His honesty, proclaimed by himself and believed by others,
His renowned abhorrence of all posturing and pretense,
Is there with Pertwee's Promenades and Pierrots--
One Hundred Years of Seaside Entertainment,
And (oh, this above all) his sensibility,
His sensibility and its hair-like filaments,
His delicate, quivering sensibility is now as one
With Barbara Windsor's Book of Boobs,
A volume graced by the descriptive rubric
"My boobs will give everyone hours of fun".
Soon now a book of mine could be remaindered also,
Though not to the monumental extent
In which the chastisement of remaindering has been meted out
To the book of my enemy,
Since in the case of my own book it will be due
To a miscalculated print run, a marketing error--
Nothing to do with merit.
But just supposing that such an event should hold
Some slight element of sadness, it will be offset
By the memory of this sweet moment.
Chill the champagne and polish the crystal goblets!
The book of my enemy has been remaindered
And I am glad.
Clive James
