"Today I issue a call for action. Send me your nominations for the place that is most deserving of the designation 'The Armpit of America.' In 100 words or fewer, explain your position. Based on these descriptions, I will winnow your entries to the anatomically correct number of armpits, visit both of them, and make my report in a subsequent column. I will choose the No. 1 armpit, and purchase for the winning entrant an appropriate on-site souvenir."
