The Style Invitational WEEK 298: THE RIGHT STUFF My monopoly on nooky. Moo. Moo. No lumpy milk. I'm no killjoy. Jump upon my loin. This week's contest: Write a sentence, or phrase, or entire passage, using only your right hand on the keyboard. This means you may use no keys to the left of N, H, Y and 7. (Unlike Archy the Cockroach, you may simultaneously use the shift key.) First-prize winner gets a talking Christmas wreath, which is worth $20. First runner-up gets the tacky but estimable
Style Invitational Loser Pen. Other runners-up receive the coveted Style
Invitational Loser T-shirt. Honorable Mentions get the mildly
sought-after Style Invitational bumper sticker. Winners will be selected
on the basis of humor and originality. Mail your entries to the Style
Invitational, Week 298, c/o The Washington Post, 1150 15th St. NW,
Washington, D.C. 20071; fax them to 202-334-4312; or submit them via
Internet to: losers@washpost.com. Internet users: Please indicate the
week number in the "subject" field. Also, please do not append
"attachments," which tend not to be read. Entries must be received on or
before Monday, Dec. 8. Important: Please include your postal address
and phone number. Winners will be announced three weeks from today.
Editors reserve the right to alter entries for taste, humor or
appropriateness. No purchase necessary. This week's promo promo ad was
written by Jonathan Paul of Garrett Park. Employees of The Washington
Post and members of their immediate families are not eligible for
prizes.
