The Nature of Friendship Book Giveaway!!!


Jackass Letters is sponsoring a book giveaway for my readers! He writes hilarious letters to random famous people and companies to see what kind of response he'll get out of them. I originally found his site due to his twitter account, and have been hooked ever since! And in keeping with the idea that I consider him a friend (not sure he reciprocates, lol) it is fitting that the book is titled:

The Nature of Friendship by Maryjo Koch. Maryjo Koch is an artist and naturalist. Her book is illustrated by herself and is done in brilliant watercolors! It's beautiful and each page has a different friendship related saying. It's small, hardback and definitely a quick and cute read!

To enter:

You MUST visit Jackass Letters and leave a comment here telling me what you thought of one of his letters. (Other than the one posted on the home page.) Some of my favorites are his letters to WalMart, Snickers, etc. And I say etc, cause there are so many!

For additional entries:

1) Digg, stumble, tweet or post a link to this on any website. If you want to add me on twitter or jackass letters, feel free to do so!

2) NEW SUBSCRIBERS ONLY!!! If you have NOT subscribed, you can get an additional entry by subscribing and leaving a comment letting me know you did.

3) CURRENT SUBSCRIBERS ONLY!!! If you currently subscribe, leave a comment about one of your favorite posts of mine (not including this one.)

Okay, that's all the rules! This contest will end at noon on May 25. Good luck and this is only open to US and Canada residents!

I liked the letter to Burger King, especially the part where he said he sent them the words from his food bag that said it was a winner. He wanted them to send him his prize!

I read the American Nurses Association letter and probably shouldn't have... I'm a nurse and I wouldn't have replied either!

I read the Bacardi letter and was dying laughing. It was hilarious and just wonder the outcome if he got anything free. Would like to win the book.
