Most Ridiculous Item of The Day:
Our good friend Geoff at Simon and Schuster tells us "Bed, Bed, Bed" has
rocketed from number one million and a half to a highly respectable #230
on the Amazon chart, totally on the response from last week's mass email.
This is very exciting news, and we thank everyone who took part. We hope
that any stragglers out there aren't holding out for a lower price, because
believe us - at $11.87 (where did the 87 cents come from?) it will never be
lower, and those Amazon bookbots are very good at the quick delivery.
Why is it important to buy it now? Because we have a secret plan to knock
Bill O'Reilly's "Who's Looking Out for You?" from the #1 position - if just
for an hour. It's not that we have a problem with "The Factor" or its hate-
mongering style - don't misunderstand. We have a problem with him, and his
monochromatic debating skills - and what better way to say "Would you please
leave?" than through the purchase of a loving, gentle children's book & CD set!
Help us shame him!
