From The Bookseller, 6 August - Bent's Notes

The article was about the 2004 Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest, organised by
San Jose State University:a prize for seriously bad writing.

A "dishonourable mention" in the puns category went to Tim O'Leary for this:
'As Reynoldo lit the votive candle at the grotto for San Jose de los
Platanos and prayed for the healthy delivery of his first child, he heard a disembodied voice say, "Your daughter will be 17 inches long", to which Reynaldo replied, "Do you know the weight, too, San Jose?"
