Thursday Night Smackdown

You're Welcome

This artisanal post was handcrafted just for YOU using the finest in locally sourced vocabulary on 14 Jan 2010, and is filed under miscellany.

Thursday Night Giveback

Tonight, rather than spend my money on crab claws or lobster tails or vanilla beans or porterhouse steaks, I’ll be donating the average amount of a Smackdown to Haitian earthquake relief, and I’ll add another dollar for everyone who comments on this post before Saturday at noon EST.

If you did the same on your blog – whatever you can afford, a dollar per comment, a quarter per comment, a dime per comment – we could really shake some shit up.
