Recently I have noticed a disturbing trend of stranger and progressively more subversive titles appearing in local book stores carrying the "Oprah's Book Club" endorsement. Has Oprah finally flipped or is this some kind of Dadaist prank/Hakim Bey type of poetic terrorism? All things considered I would have to side with the latter explanation. Here are photos of just some the offending books.

If you wish to delete this and keep the mystery alive, I don't mind... But bookstores have rolls of those stickers to put on books when she announces them--before they are released to bookstores with them already attached, or reprinted with that symbol worked into the cover artwork.
Just found this site. I have no idea where you are coming from since background data is skimpy. You wear a funny hat that makes you look taller and you seem to be attracted to conspiracy theories. I think.
But what exactly is the problem with the Oprah selections? So what if some of them are of alternative religions? Or, less succinctly, who cares?
The whole post is just innuendo. If there is an issue, say so. This is a blog. Blogs should present opinions, not ephemeral possibilities.
It's a Fez. My funny hat. It's a Fez....

Offending books? What's offending about them?
great pics! very funny.
old bogus said, "Blogs should present opinions, not ephemeral possibilities."
if he or anyone else is reading this, can you send me the official list of Dos and Don'ts for blogs? i'd hate to break any blogging ordinances.
Old bogus comes across as a bit of a nob, doesn't he. I came here through a link on M.Tsarions blog so this is in keeping with what I expected. L is a scary one.
