By my count, that makes the winner Jason Gardner! (Feel free to double-check my counting if you are so inclined \u2013 we can have a Florida style recount if necessary). Congratulations, Jason, and please let me know where to have the book sent.<\/p>\n

Let me also express my profound appreciation for Dan Wilkinson\u2019s attempts to curry favor with me. Posting comments that included excerpts from Mandaean texts and from really old Genesis lyrics was absolutely the right way to butter me up. For the next giveaway, I promise to make it one where the book goes to the person who does the best job of pandering to the judge! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
