The folks over at Gizmodo love our Missing Manual series founder, but think the Pogue-man needs a dash of cool. For that, they're asking readers to wield some Photoshop magic. Says Adam Frucci:
Your challenge is this: make David Pogue as cool as humanly possible. Put him on a Harley with a stogie sticking out of his mouth. Surround him with buxom ladies in a hot tub. You know, cool. Find some pictures of him and use your Photoshop skills and send your best efforts to me at adam@gizmodo.com. Entries are due on Friday, and I'll post the best results early next week.
Not cool.
P.S. Check out "It's All Geek to Me" for more ideas.
P.S.S. And David has promised an autographed book to the winner. Check the comments.

You're hysterical. Plus you have a way of writing that even an amnesiac with ADD can understand. You make it fun. Thanks!
