for those of you who like extra kitschy stuff with your literature:

when ya'll pick up your copies of Rant, keep an eye out for the promotional "Just Married" bumper stickers. they are mentioned as part of the marketing for Rant in the back of the advanced copy. hopefully our local booksellers will be handing them out with the book... if nothing else, i'm sure Chuck will hook us up at the readings.

I'll get some, But i'm going to have to give a lot of thought to whether
I dress up the vehicle for Party Crashing.
I drove around Minneapolis with one of these 20 years ago
and the Loons around here took it pretty seriously.

"This is a bumper sticker for RANT. Send an email to [email]doubledaymarketing@randomhouse.com[/email] with a description of what happens when you click on the back widow spider at [url]www.rant-book.com[/url], along with your name and address. We'll send you this bumper sticker!"

Can anyone verify this?

This is what I said:
"When you click on the black widow spider, it 'coughs' up a piece of paper promoting the Chuck Palahniuk Oral History Project to win a Limited Edition copy of RANT."
Figured I would be specific

i got mine today also.........i never got a reply email, so i sent another. i hope they realize before posting another one to me.

its going on my car. i am thinking there might actually be a reaction to be had from it, similar to the coffee cup on the roof....maybe someone will congratulate me on my marriage.

i KNOW if i see one on someone elses car i will definately congratulate them and then speed up ahead of them so they can see ihave one too.

I got my sticker today. There is some debate about which one of us gets it though. We're so sticker happy.

I just got mine today. Not sure to keep it or put it on my car. Seeing as I'll only have my car 1 year or so (then off to college) I think I'll keep it.

That's what the contest is about, you just need to tell them that clicking the black widow makes that contest page pop up.

Here's my bumper sticker. My girlfriend works on the Oakland pier, she adds up the weight of the things on those huge cargo container vessels and stamps an "ok it's not too heavy to sink" approval on bills of lading.

I ordered this custom made so she could slap it on the back of one of those ships. But she wouldn't do it. She's chicken. So I guess I'll have a momento.
