“The 12 Days AFTER Christmas” Giveaway: Day 35
On the Thirty-Fifth Day After Christmas, Macenstein gave to you (or, more accurately, gave you a chance to win…) an Epson WorkForce 600 All-in-One Printer from Epson!
Cute girl NOT included.
Copy and print at 38 pages per minute? – check!
Built-in Wi-Fi and Ethernet networking?!? – check!
Double-sided printing, Scanning, faxing, OCR conversions, and laser quality prints? check, check, check, check, check… um… how many “checks” is that? Well, whatever. Epson’s WorkForce 600 All-in-One Printer does it all, and you want it!
Why waste money on a laser printer when you can get so much more for less, including the ability to wirelessly print and archive critical documents, or fax stacks of originals in seconds. Because time is money, the WorkForce 600 races through every task. In fact, it’s about two times faster printing documents than leading competitive models. And, it uses up to three times less energy than a laser printer. Fast, affordable and built to grow with your business, the WorkForce 600 does it all, so you can focus on the business at hand.
To enter: Since the Epson WorkForce 600 is all about the printed word, to enter leave us a comment telling us what is your favorite book of all time? Winners will be picked randomly 7 days later and notified (kind of like in The Ring, only with less killing… we hope). Open to US and Canadian winners only. Good luck, and thanks for reading Macenstein! (Oh, and be sure to enter ALL our “12 Days AFTER Christmas” Giveaways!)
Please note: Comments may take a while to show up, please do not double-post. Thanks!

First, the best answer is probably “the last one I read.”
Second, anyone answering “The Bible” is full of it. There is certainly some wonderful prose, but generally it is chock full of poorly written passages, pompous declarations, and self-righteous diatribes. It reads like a compilation of Maya Angelou, Dr. Phil, and Deepak Chopra. Those who cite it as the best either feel a duty to proselytize or say it because someone told them that nothing can ever be better than “the word of God.” As literature it just doesn’t hold up.
Finally, in recent years, I loved The Life of Pi (http://www.amazon.com/Life-Pi-Yann-Martel/dp/B0017HV05E/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1233557400&sr=1-3), and the charm and ingenuity of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time” (http://www.amazon.com/Curious-Incident-Dog-Night-time/dp/0099450259/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1233555881&sr=1-1) is irresistible.
