Even though James Lileks' Senate career died aborning,there's nothing, absolutely nothing, that can stop his run for #1 at Amazon if even half the Blogsphere that thought a political life for him was a good idea weighs in.
Lileks' readers and supporters were heartened to note today that the master of regrettable food has now given the world regrettable homes @ Amazon.com: Books: Interior Desecrations : Hideous Homes from the Horrible '70s
"Sweet smoking Jesus, what was the matter with these people?" pretty much sums up the book and the man behind it.
This deathless tome just made my "must give it to everyone that ever lived it" slot on our Christmas list. This means I got one for myself, my mother and 7 other people.
Since the royalties from this instant classic will go straight into the Jasperwood refurbishing and cigar fund, you can give the books with compassion and a clear mind.
Already at #79 on Amazon, I would think that a determined Blogsphere could easily knock Jon Stewart's America out of the top slot. After all, who really speaks for America these days, Jon Stewart or LILEKS, (James)?
Advantage: Lileks.
Link to this or post your own item, but I think we've really got a shot at winning this election too! If, to quote Dan Rather "the blogging machine which the White House and the Bush-Cheney campaign has used for any number of purposes over their four years" can put a President in office, Amazon should be almost as easy.
"I'm not saying we wouldn't get our hair mussed...."
