Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Hello to Randy and Laura! Yay for browncoats and boobage, two things that go well together.

Someone asked where I got the info about Joss coming to WizardWorld Philly. (Sorry - after I moved my computer wouldn't work for a week.) The official Serenity movie site says "Joss Whedon is confirmed to appear at the Wizard World convention in Philadelphia on June 4th, and he'll be bringing some of our big damn heroes with him." I found the info on Whedonesque, but he's still not listed as a guest on the WizardWorld site. Frustrating.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Here is the thing about guerilla marketing. It is fun. The four of us (Randy, Laura, me, and the world's most scrumptious goilfriend) took a tour down Interstate 94 from Eau Claire to Minneapolis Sunday and put up posters and stickers in every reststop in both directions.

Pissing off DOT workers in two states is good for the soul.

Makes me almost wish for an interstate with rest stops. But not quite.

Are you making the posters and stickers, or are you getting them somewhere?

Your local soulless business supply chain store sells peal-and-stick paper for your bubble jet printer.

It is the very Age of vandalism.

on edit: The sticky paper is a 3M product that I worked on while working for them. My entire life has been only prologue to FF guerrilla marketing.

No chain business supply stores here, but I imagine non-chain would too. I was mostly asking about what you have on them though. Do you have a link to a specific picture? A copy of the official one?

And...you worked for 3M? So cool. Perhaps it's because my dad is from Minnesota, but I always thought 3M was nifty. I love all the cool things those folks have come up with.

3M is not cool. 3M is a soulless multinational that strives to inflict mediocrity on all its employees. It pisses me off no end that I worked for them for 20+ years.

nevermind. They do have some cool stuff though.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

When I was a kid, driving past the 3M building was the first sign we were approaching Minneapolis. Now of course there's development all the way from St. Paul to Hudson, WI.

I just mention that because 3M has this happy childhood association. Oh, and I also liked the old fashion tape dispensers that split in half so you could load more tape. Way more aesthetic than the one-piece plastic dispensers. Or was that Scotch tape?

All is well that ends in pizza.

I worked for them for three months, back in '96. Then my contract was up and I didn't. Had some good focaccia bread based sandwiches in the commissary, first focaccia I ever had, really.

Scotch tape is 3M. The McKnight family being scottish and all.
