A game more fun than Where's Waldo - Where's Emmett

[Joyful HoneyBee]

Emmett has been MIA from the board for a very long time. I'm sure there are some here who miss him very badly, (so I've heard). Truth is, Emmett has been VERY busy. Over the past year and a half he has written three books, one of which is on the verge of being reviewed by Harper Collins on a site called authonomy. His book currently holds the number 2 position on the list, which means he's up for the Editor's Desk in 8 more days. There is a bit of risk here, though; as there are others vying for a coveted position in the top five, so there will be jostling and scraping going on as those in the number 6 and lower positions try to make a last ditch effort to 'make the desk'.

Those who are interested can read Emmett's books online here:

The Write In would be particularly interesting to those who are inclined to involve themselves in purveying the political scene these days.

Anyone who is interested can join the site, back the book and keep it in that top five.

Anyway, that's where he's hanging out these days.

Look into my eyes, Emmett. You are getting verrry sleepy. You will come back to DP.

THE WRITE IN by E M Delaney


Over-the-road trucker, Lester Moore, leads every poll in the country for the office of President of The United States. The thing is, he isn't running!


If only Les wouldn't have won that laptop computer for being selected his company's 'Driver of the Year', none of this would be happening. Just as soon as a lady friend shows him how to use the contraption, he enters a political survey contest that asks the question: What would be the first thing you'd do if you were elected President? His answer, which mentioned something about an average guy having the job, ends up printed on the front page of 'The National News Daily'. All it took then was a couple of college pranksters setting up a website, Write-In Les Moore for President, and his popularity skyrockets. It was all a big joke.

A divorced, fifty-six year old with health concerns and an IRS problem, Les is not your typical presidential candidate by any stretch. But, people love him and they are logging in to the site by the millions to pledge their support.

The bureaucrats in Washington aren't about to have some truck driver hi-jack the election process and they are willing to do whatever is necessary to avoid it, up to and including, eliminating the problem altogether.

the sad thing is, there isn't a politician out there smart enough to plagiarize him....
