Bulwer-Lytton for real
When Detective Riggs was called to investigate the theft of a
trainload of Native American fish broth concentrate bound for market,
he solved the case almost immediately, being that the trail of clues
led straight to the trainmaster, who had both the locomotive and the
Hopi tuna tea.
While the otters linger languidly off the Monterey coast, cracking the occasional abalone wise, and the swallows perch bored in the long hot days of summer in San Juan Capistrano wondering - really - why had they made the trip this year, the English faculty at San Jose State University work long hours each year to adjudicate one of the most perverse indoor sports known to man, the Bulwer-Lytton fiction contest.
The quote about the locomotive and the Hopi tuna tea is this years runner up. Thanks to Norm for letting us know yesterday that the results are finally in.
