Sorry Brad Delong. Anyways, for the second time in my life, I made it into the Style Invitational. The contest was Onion-style headlines. Fairly embarrassingly, I botched one of the jokes, and my other submission was split between two columns, so this wasn’t a great showing, but I’ll take it.
My entries show up on page 4 of week 798.
Patrick Fitzgerald Investigates Allegations He's Too Good to Be True (Greg Sanders, Silver Spring)
Defeat of Prop 8 Somehow Fails to Save Troubled Marriage (Greg Sanders)
I think they’re middle of the run really, some of the other honorables were definitely better, I’ll have to step up my game next time. Anyways, the obvious botch is the second one, should have been passage not defeat. I’d actually realized it about ten minutes after I submitted it and sent in a correction, but they apparently didn’t see the correction or catch it in editing. So be it.
