    | in her murderous hold this frigate |
    | earth is ballasted with bones of |
    | millions of the drowned; there, in that |
    | awful water-land, there was thy most |
    | familiar home. Thou hast been where |
    | bell or diver never went; has slept by |
    | many a sailer's side, where sleepless |
    | mothers would give their lives to lay |
    | them down. Thou saw'st the locked |
    | lovers when leaping from their flaming |
    | ship; heart to heart they sank beneath |
    | the exulting wave; true to each other, |
    | when heaven seemed false to them. Thou |
    | saw'st the murdered mate when tossed by |
    | pirates from the midnight deck; for |
    | hours he fell into the deeper midnight |
    | of the insatiate maw; and his murderers |
    | still sailed on unharmed -- while swift |
    | lightnings shivered the neighboring |
    | ship that would have borne a righteous |
    | husband to outstretched, longing arms. |
    | O head! thou has seen enough to split |
    | the planets and make an infidel of |
    | Abraham, and not one syllable is |
    | thine!" |
    | |

    / "...The name of the song is called \
    | 'Haddocks' Eyes'!" |
    | |
    | "Oh, that's the name of the song, is |
    | it?" Alice said, trying to feel |
    | interested. |
    | |
    | "No, you don't understand," the Knight |
    | said, looking a little vexed. "That's |
    | what the name is called. The name |
    | really is, 'The Aged Aged Man.'" |
    | |
    | "Then I ought to have said "That's what |
    | the song is called'?" Alice corrected |
    | herself. |
    | |
    | "No, you oughtn't: that's quite another |
    | thing! The song is called 'Ways and |
    | Means': but that's only what it is |
    | called you know!" |
    | |
    | "Well, what is the song then?" said |
    | Alice, who was by this time completely |
    | bewildered. |
    | |
    | "I was coming to that," the Knight |
    | said. "The song really is "A-sitting on |
    | a Gate": and the tune's my own |
    | invention." |

    / The Bulwer-Lytton fiction contest is \
    | held ever year at San Jose State Univ. |
    | by Professor Scott Rice. It is held in |
    | memory of Edward George Earle |
    | Bulwer-Lytton (1803-1873), a rather |
    | prolific and popular (in his time) |
    | novelist. He is best known today for |
    | having written "The Last Days of |
    | Pompeii." |
    | |
    | Whenever Snoopy starts typing his novel |
    | from the top of his doghouse, beginning |
    | "It was a dark and stormy night..." he |
    | is borrowing from Lord Bulwer-Lytton. |
    | This was the line that opened his |
    | novel, "Paul Clifford," written in |
    | 1830. The full line reveals why it is |
    | so bad: |
    | |
    | It was a dark and stormy night; the |
    | rain fell in torrents -- except |
    | |
    | at occasional intervals, when it was |
    | checked by a violent gust of |
    | |
    | wind which swept up the streets (for it |
    | is in London that our scene |
    | |
    | lies), rattling along the housetops, |
    | and fiercely agitating the scanty |
    | |
    | flame of the lamps that struggled |
    \ against the darkness. /

    / Like an expensive sports car, \
    | fine-tuned and well-built, Portia was |
    | sleek, shapely, and gorgeous, her red |
    | jumpsuit moulding her body, which was |
    | as warm as seatcovers in July, her hair |
    | as dark as new tires, her eyes flashing |
    | like bright hubcaps, and her lips as |
    | dewy as the beads of fresh rain on the |
    | hood; she was a woman driven -- fueled |
    | by a single accelerant -- and she |
    | needed a man, a man who wouldn't shift |
    | from his views, a man to steer her |
    | along the right road: a man like Alf |
    | Romeo. |
    | |
    | -- Rachel Sheeley, winner |
    | |
    | The hair ball blocking the drain of the |
    | shower reminded Laura she would never |
    | see her little dog Pritzi again. |
    | |
    | -- Claudia Fields, runner-up |
    | |
    | It could have been an organically based |
    | disturbance of the brain -- perhaps a |
    | tumor or a metabolic deficiency -- but |
    | after a thorough neurological exam it |
    | was determined that Byron was simply a |
    | jerk. |
    | |
    | -- Jeff Jahnke, runner-up |
    | |
    | Winners in the 7th Annual Bulwer-Lytton |
    | Bad Writing Contest. The contest is |
    | named after the author of the immortal |
    | lines: "It was a dark and stormy |
    | night." The object of the contest is to |
    | write the opening sentence of the worst |
    \ possible novel. /
