Deut. 9:17: "And I took the book, and cast it out of my two hands, and brake it before your eyes." Because it SUCKED!
Congratulations to Ken Deville, whose Charlton Heston/Moses photo wins the White Coat, Black Hat photo contest. Deville is a professor of bioethics himself, so I’m betting that Carl stole a couple of his ideas as well. He’ll be treated to his choice of the the 7 prizes we have on offer
.
Many thanks to everyone who participated. I was impressed, as always, at the outstanding number of talented Carl-haters out there.
As a coda, I would like to propose one more idea: A New Yorker-style caption competition. See if you can come up with a suitable caption for this photo, one that reflects some of Carl’s key attributes (talentlessness, sanctimony, plagiarism). I’ll get the ball rolling:
“Hey everybody, I wrote this puppy all by myself. That Burning Bush didn’t have shit to do with it!”
Your turn. Use the comments section below to give your suggestions (and this is just for fun, by the way. No prizes. What am I, made of money?)

Worse than Krampus
One more day left in our photo contest! Get your entries in soon! Today’s submission:
If you have been particularly unpleasant this year, beware: This little turd may replace your annual lump of coal, your bag of hickory switches, or your journey with Krampus to the pits of hell.  And like a big lump of coal, it will burn brightly in your Christmas hearth.

Solution to a wobbly table
Entry #3 in our photo contest reminds us that if you think creatively, you can find a use even for something as worthless as Carl Elliott’s book. If you have a piece of wobbly furniture, well, the book’s just sitting there, anyway.

From the political to the scatalogical: Here is our next entry in the White Coat, Black Hat photo contest.
Hi there, I’m happy to see that at least one person shows what Carl Elliott really stands for. He just whines and whines about our products, but as the number 1 sales-agent of Immodium in Minnesota, I know perfectly well he uses our products when the need is there. Here is where I found his book.

He likes Tony almost as much as he liked Nixon.
This evening, we received our first submission to the photo contest. An outstanding beginning!
I will post these as they arrive, but I will leave out contestant’s names unless they specifically tell me otherwise. That way, you can feel free to be as ruthless as you like.

Smile, asshole!
Inspired by the excellent photo that showed up after Carl Elliott’s Asheville reading, the White Coat, Black Hat website is happy to announce its first contest.  Readers are invited to send us their most creative and insulting images of Carl Elliott and/or his book, White Coat, Black Hat. Whether you find an interesting new placement for the book, or do a photoshop job on his cheesy promo pics, show Carl what you really think of him and his half-assed collection of stolen ideas.
Send your submissions to info@whitecoatblackhat.com. Deadline is November 30. No constraints; any image is ok with me. Hell, if you want to shove that book down a woodchipper and put it on youtube, that qualifies too.
Favorites will be posted on the website. And the prize? Well, you could opt for a free copy of that piece of shit book, or much better, you can have your choice of any of the alternatives I’ve suggested for the same price (well, any except the Ambien).  If you choose a horse head mask over Carl’s book, then so much the better.
