Basketcase
Coming home tonight after a pleasant dinner out I got a very nice surprise, a basket of goodies on my doorstep. Solender of The Modern Mythology had a challenge for the person with the ten thousandth page view of his site to send in a screen shot for a prize. I was number 10,001. In light of my week, and practically knowing me, he gave me this basket containing the following:The Personal Security Handbook - The ultimate guide for protecting your home and family. Hopefully it has some of those home booby-traps like the ones Nancy used in the original Nightmare on Elm Street, that'll show those Robbers what for!
Thereby Hangs a Tale - stories of curious word origins. As a fellow lover or words and wordsmithery I thought you might enjoy this little book.
A Mitsubishi Cushion /Emergency Blanket. A bit late now but I bet this would have been a godsend on the day of your accident.
Cat Play Glove. For your traumatized cat.
Milano Smoke Flavoured Salami. To replace your stolen lunch.
Castello Sundried Tomato Cream Cheese. To go with the Salami.
Banrock Station "The Reserve" Merlot. To go with the Salami and Cream Cheese and hey, you can never have too much Vino.
Thanks Mike, this is much appreciated, and here is my screen capture of page view 10,001.
