Not to be confused with Canada's premier modern superhero, Prime
Minister Stephen Harper, aka Captain Dubya Jr. When he says the name
of his mentor, Captain Dubya, he finds himself transformed into a
super-powered glove puppet. But should he say the name again, he finds
himself transformed into a non-super-powered glove puppet. This
unusual powering-up has the result of CBJ not being able to introduce
himself-- though he can write biting articles about the state of the
comic book art. :-P

I would just like to add that TEMPLATE # 3 will mark the twenty-fifth
story in the EIGHTFOLD universe. Huzzah!

And I would just like to add that 21 and a half of them have been
written by Tom! Good gravy.

There's only one Joltin' One. Joltin' Jeff McCoskey. I think you need to
pick another nickname. Maybe Jumping Jamie, or perhaps Jamming Jamie,
Juggernauting Jamie? Jailbaiting Jamie? Juxtaposing Jamie? Justifying
Jamie? Joking Jamie? Jawing Jamie? Jackhammering Jamie?

With that being said, the Eightfoldians announce the first annual NAME
THE JOLTIN' ONE contest! Joltin' Jamie Rosen needs a new nickname,
folks, and we've decided to let you-- the readers-- rectify this error.

To enter, just come up with a nickname suggestion-- perferably one that
works both as an adjective (Joltin' Jamie Rosen, for example) and as a
title (The Joltin' One). Send your entries to milos_...@yahoo.com
by April 15, 2006. The winner will recieve absolutely nothing of
value-- save immortality!

One entry per person, please. Make sure to include both the adjective
and title form-- be a little creative, and stay away from "The
[adjective] One". Bonus points for alliteration, but the one we
choose-- the best one-- will be the one that is the most unique and
Rosenian.

What, are we gonna have a Joltin' Smackdown now, too?

Tom's the one that gave me that nickname. Howzabout Jaded Jamie?
Jousting Jamie? Jewish Jamie?
