You're All Winners!

There were several great entries for the Next Sport in The Olympics contest.
I have decided to award all 19 entries with the very valuable prize:
A Book Mark, currently under design, sure to be a collector's item. In the future it could be as valuable as a Zimbabwe 100 trillion dollar bill, or a Bitcoin.

In a dystopian, post-apocalyptic world, the Book Marks may be used as currency.

Entries ranged from Dog Frisbee to Jarts to Tiddlywinks, to Hot Dog Eating, to Crolf. I had never heard of Crolf; it's a combination of croquet and golf for people who find those two sports individually too fast paced. There were two entires not suitable for publication. Those two suggestions have this in common: they were unspeakably bold. Without further discussion, I can state that either of these two events would be certain to get among the highest viewer ratings in Olympic History.

One person suggested an event that's already in the current Olympics. Pay attention people!

In addition to working on the Book Marks, I am writing, working on three projects: finishing the novel: The Dead Banker's Password, writing a new humor book: You Look Good For Your Age, and re-editing and releasing a new version of Be Sincere Even When You Don't Mean It.

After a recent podcast appearance on which I talked about Be Sincere, a listener got in touch with me and suggested I read the book again. I did, and saw several opportunities to make the book...how do I put this....better...and now with even more phony sincerity. It will also be reformatted. I'm doing that now. The book will stay in print, the revisions will be uploaded when done.

When the Book Marks are ready I will get in touch with anyone who has submitted an entry and arrange to mail the prize. I advise recipients to keep the Book Mark in mint condition, like a Mickey Mantle rookie card.
