Sorry, that name's taken

Just in case Lino's thinking that the working title for his new book ("The Book") might make a good permanent title, he may need to think again. Turns out that Tyndale House Publishers has had a lock on the name for quite some time as the title of a heavily paraphrased version of the Bible. In fact, I remember my devoutly Catholic mother buying a version of this Bible back in the mid-1980s. And I wonder why my Catholic cathechesis was so poor.

Hmmm... a tome recounting the "funny, odd, moral, and immoral things [Lino's] done in [his] life," or a less-than-stellar translation of the Bible that's missing seven books. I'm not sure which one deserves the title "The Book" more.
