{{quote|''Upon discovering that Miles Black, the famous phrenologist from Yorkshire was going to take up yodeling to lonely goats in Bali, James White decided to balance four planks of wood on a beer keg and call it an abstract work of art in the style of a famous fourteenth-century architect, just going to prove that people will read any old garbage if they think there will be a good pun at the end of it.''|The Grand Panjandrum's Special Award for Vile Puns, [http://www.sjsu.edu/faculty/scott.rice/blfc2008.htm The 2008 Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest]}}
