The time for voting in the first (0th) Spoken Word Fun Challenge is upon us!

Update [2008-4-18 17:25:15 by R343L]: I just realized I should have a deadline for voting. The deadline for voting is next Wednesday, the 23rd of April, Midnight Pacific Standard Time. Or if I forget, sometime the next Tuesday due to being at Coachella.



See the original story for "details". I really have no suggestions on voting criteria, especially as the rules were kind of, um, broad? The entries were (in a half-assedly non-random but not straight from the order of posts order):

606 -- P.J. O'Rourke's "How To Drive Fast On Drugs While Getting Your Wing-Wang Squeezed And Not Spill Your Drink"

ucblockhead #1 -- Robot Boy

Gedvondur -- "Poop" by Gerald Lochland (I think?)

misslake -- What Canadians Don't Know About Love by Irving Layton from "Love Where the Nights Are Long"

ucblockhead #2 -- Something about him being a physic professor or so he says.

R343L -- Excerpt from Leaves of Grass "Song of Myself" by Walt Whitman

alphagirl -- Untitled c.2002, by the performer, perhaps called Ribs.

komet -- "Inexpensive Progress" by John Betjeman

toxicfur -- "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" by Anne Sexton

hulver -- Dead London (from The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells)

ana -- "Paper, Scissors, Rock" by ana himself

fluffy -- Jabberwocky, by Lewis Carroll (Dodgson, whatever!)

MisterQueue and another MisterQueue -- They go together, so he says. I don't know where these came from, but they are certainly fair entries.

motty -- Ashrei HaZorim by Avraham Ben-Yitzhak (motty's translation)

tuscoops or tuscoops -- Two different readings of "En Gallop" by Joanna Newsom

devtrash -- a monologue from Goonies

clock -- Major spoiler entry of a Dad reading to his baby son Goodnight Moon.


Please vote on your favorite however many you want! Well, I think the "standard" for fun challenges is 2 or 3. I think.


Please let me know if I missed any readings (spoken by actual hussies) or messed up links or missed someone in the poll or someone would like the text describing their entry changed or whatever. I will take it under advisement.
