Lofa's Book Club

New Club a Huge Hit

"Just like Obi Wan Kanobi, 'I felt a shift in the Force'", claims Dr. Max Piper, Seattle's Virtual Counselor. In that instant when Seahawk's linebacker, Lofa Tatupu smashed helmets with Nick Goings, knocking the Panther running back out of the game in the first quarter of the NFC Championship, I believe the fragile Seattle-Lite psyche suffered what could very well be termed as a permanent concussion".

For untold generations, historically this is that time of the year when Seattle-Lites quietly hunker down with nothing more stimulating to buoy their spirits through the dreary winter months than selections from Oprah's Book Club.Well, that all changed last Sunday.

NOW... Oprah's big pick of James Frey's autobiographical "A Million Little Pieces", which turns out to be a fake, is being tossed aside throughout Seattle in favor of Lofa Tatupu's true-life account, "I'll Mash You Into A Million Little Pieces" .

And that title is only the beginning for the suddenly, wildly popular Lofa's Book Club.Here's just a sampling of more selections by this hard-hitting Seahawk that normally mild-mannered... polite... P.C.... "nice" Seattle-Lites are devouring in droves:

"Thick Heads, Thicker Necks, And The Women Who Love Them"

"The Middle-Linebacker Diet... Intimidating Your Fat Cells"

"I Will Hurt You"

Will things ever return to "normal" for the City that prides itself on being bookish, bland and boring?Not likely. In a recent poll, 64% of Seattle-Lites now agree with the statement... "I think Seattle Times columnist Nicole Brodeur would look much more attractive in Seahawk-blue face paint."
