Iraqi Invasion: A Text Misadventure.
This is a literary style that remains sadly underexplored. Though you may recall that McSweeneys did well with it, too.
Edit: Apparently, "interactive fiction" (as it were) is a great tool for learning how to type as well. Is there anything it can't do? (Apart from jump (that's a joke for all you Sierra * Quest game fans. All two of you.))

hey, did any of you go to the Wal Mart movie? it was really good, and really quite interesting. I learned a lot about how hideous Wal Mart is that I didn't know from before (like the number of people on welfare as a result of working there). If you wanted to go, but didn't, you can check out the movie's website or Wal Mart's positive spin website www.walmartfacts.com just for a change in point of view

um, okay, so if you were a pad of post-it-notes with a list of prospective references for my grad school application, where would you be? You're not where I last put you (beside my bed on my bookshelf), so where would you head? obviously it was time for a change... was it enough to go to some obscure pile on my dresser, or were you aiming for greater adventure, like, say the pile of crap by the telephone upstairs? where are you??
haha, whoops... right in front of me, at the computer... that'll teach me to look for things... all I need to do is just stay where I am and they'll magically appear under a pile of cds in front of me... (actually a common occurrence for me, I really need to put my cds away)
