111111 meme

OK, I've been tagged by Jim West and Nick Norelli for the BSC 111111 meme. I am not nearly as clever as those two, and have been struggling to come up with 5 imaginary posts by 5 bibliobloggers (per the instructions here), but am drawing a major blank. But, I don't want to hear Zwingli read to me by anyone—that would be worse than having Calvin read to me :)

First the rules:

a. Tag five Biblical studies bloggers.
b. Invent fictional posts that they might have written over the last month.
c. Link to this post.

Here are my lame attempts:
Charles Halton: "Why the University of Chicago is better than Hebrew Union College and why I wish I had gone there"

Kevin Edgecomb: "I just discovered that the filioque clause is right! Now what?"

Kevin Wilson: "Why I prefer the Anchor Bible Dictionary over the New Interpreter's Bible Dictionary"

Tyler Williams: "It's those 3 X's that are blocking it, really!"

Rick Brannan: "Greek accents don't really matter; one ALLA is as good as another!"

OK, I told you they were lame...now does anybody have a good idea for a July sale? That's what I should have been doing while I was straining my poor brain for this.

Very nice! How about a sale on all books authored by HUC graduates to atone for your sin ;)

"a good idea for a July sale?"

Bring out the
"New Testament tools, studies and documents" series by Brill in paperback, so that they are affordable for ordinary people, e.g. J. Royse's "Scribes and correctors".
I would buy it if it comes below 100 Euro.

Charles,

Give me a list :)

Wieland,

I wish I had that kind of power! Brill will have to see the light—and I'm certainly not holding my breath for that!
