It is a time of freedom and fear, of Gaia and of borders, of many paths and the widening of
a universal toll road, emptying country and swelling cities, of the public bought into
privacy and the privacy of the public sold into invisible data banks and knowing
algorithms. It is the time of the warrior's peace and the miser's charity, when the
planting of a seed is an act of conscientious objection.
These are the times when maps fade and direction is lost. Forwards is backwards now, so we glance sideways at the strange lands through which we are all passing, knowing for certain only that our destination has disappeared. We are unready to meet these times, but we proceed nonetheless, adapting as we wander, reshaping the Earth with every tread. Behind us we have left the old times, the standard times, the high times. Welcome to the irregular times. We are proud to announce that we have a new book for sale, just in time for the Election 2004 season to really get into gear. The Bush Bathroom Reader is a long series of short pieces, puzzles and lists designed for the place that any piece of literature on George W. Bush belongs: the can. While you, um, sit on your porcelain throne, peruse through 525 Reasons to Boot Bush, decipher top-secret intelligence briefings, play Bush Bingo, fill out Cross-at-Bush-Words puzzles, find your way out of Iraq and ask yourself "Do I hate George W. Bush?" And there's oh-so-much more: kind of like our nation's deficit.
This book is not only suited for your own lavatorial amusement, but also makes a great gift for your favorite person who needs just a little nudge to move away from the dark side of politics.
