註釋A best-of selection from the popularGlobe and Mailweekly contest of wit and word play From “Clan of the Care Bears” to “Poutine on the Ritz,” this extremely funny book delivers the very best entries from the illustrious ten-year history of the Globe Challenge. Every week the Challenge pitches the ball to an unknown quantity of batters, and every week they return it with an unpredictable force and spin. Asked for Canadianized movie titles and they supply “The Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner.” Asked for lines that would abruptly end a book, and they offer “Aye, Captain Ahab, we saw the great white whale, and we killed it.” Advertising endorsements from dead celebrities? Try “Charles Darwin, for Turtles chocolates: Your natural selection.” Funny, brainy, surreal, or just plain silly, these puns, poems, and alternative takes on reality are always ingenious, often inspired. With cartoons and amusing introductions to each section by the multi-talented author.
