For a while, Oscar Wilde was "auditioning" to take Pedro Picasso's place as the Primary Primitive of Prominence, but the big-proboscised primitive never proved as prolific as Pedro Picasso, and so I'm still stuck with Pedro Picasso.
In case anybody's forgotten, Oscar Wilde is one of those primitives who dislikes rural folk, his in-laws being the salt of the earth, and also Oscar Wilde was the one who got all wrought up and bent out of shape when he locked his cat up in the bedroom with no access to sanitary facilities, and the cat pissed on him.
Oscar Wilde sleeps in a bed with a canopy overhead, and thick quilts on the mattress, super-sized pillows; wears shirts with embroidered sleeves and ruffles, shoes with buckles, and uses linen handkerchiefs. Incredibly, Oscar Wilde is also a military veteran.

The "October Surprise" contest
Without a doubt, Karl Rove and Dick Cheney are putting the final touches on the "October Surprise" that will ensure victory for McCain/Palin.
So it's contest time. What will the "October Surprise" be? Will Russia invade Alaska? Will Sarah Palin reveal her Mensa membership? Will Bin Laden release a tape endorsing Barak? Who knows?
So let's hear what you think the "October Surprise" will be.
Oh, yeah. The prize for the winner will be hurrahs from 100,000+ DUers.
One hundred thousand primitives? I dunno.

1. I think we can safely rule out Palin's revelation of a Mensa membership.
The skumbag primitive:

2. Palin will be replaced with Chuck Norris.
I dunno.
I still think the Great Discombobulation will be the Big Zero selling the primitives down the river, any time between now, and the third or fourth week of October. It'll be bigger than Fitzmas, for Skins's island.
