Entre's Inferno
Predator Press
[LOBO]
Entrecard went down over the weekend.
So rather than skimming hundreds of sites, many of us were forced to work around the house, landscape, and perform automotive maintenance or whatever.
But I forgive Entrecard.
In fact, I'm flatly impressed by their calm and polite manner:
“We’ve had an electrical fire. Things should be back up in a few hours. We’re terribly sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.”
Wow.
That's pretty classy if you ask me … ‘cause if Predator Press has an electrical fire, ”FIREFIREHOTHOTHOTEEEEYAAAAHHHHH!!!” would be all you get -and that's if I can find the presence of mind to blog instead of running around in panicky circles while flailing my arms and screaming.
So before your eyes glaze over with welling tears at the thought of losing this historic document, we should go over the Official Predator Press Fire Safety Plan.
It is as follows:
1) Rescue LOBO,
2) rescue LOBO’s expensive stuff,
3) rescue all other tangential LOBO-related personnel such as family, pets, friends and/or coworkers, and then
4) rescue LOBO’s inexpensive stuff.
I’m not really a hard-ass about rule #4. I don’t expect you to go into an inferno for, say, my stapler: your personal safety is of utmost importance to me. Use your judgment.
But lots of little things like staplers add up, and it just might make the difference as to whether you get an iPod or a fruitcake at Christmas.
I'm just sayin.
This plan was Cultivated by Design.

But just remember, Staplers are important too. You remember Office Space, don't you?
;-)
I got that e-mail too and thought um, so?
It looks like your *feed LOBO* expired May 16th. Do I get a clearance discount?
Actually, that's May 16th 2009. My goal is to raise $9,999,999,999 by then (give or take a few 9s). Later this year, I'll do one of those thermometer graphics to show the progress.
But now that I think about it, maybe I should change it to "Buy LOBO Gas" ...
