What is IGotNewsForYou Anyway?

That's a good question. And by now you're probably really curious or really ticked that I haven't tried to explain it in more detail. We do have a brief home page for you to look at (http://www.igotnewsforyou.com) but let me try and do it some more justice. IGotNewsForYou is similar to an e-card, but a lot more sophisticated and flexible. It's a personalized, satirical page in a newspaper-style format, created by someone for someone else. It's available online or in poster form...and it's really quite hilarious when you see yourself and your personal stuff in newspaper-like stories. Ok, you can decide if it's really funny or not. We think it is. So it costs a couple of bucks to send one or you can buy a yearly subscription and send as many as you like. And you, the sender, can select the stories you want, the ones that fit your recipient best, to make it an even more personalized message, card or gift. The bulk of stories are original, written by our staff of comedy writers (that would be mostly Al) and some are new takes on existing ideas, adapted and tweaked to make them fit the format (Neil does that). And we also have contributors, people that think the idea's worthwhile and are submitting their own, original stories. But you, the sender, get to choose the stories. So if you think that your recipient may not like one, or it might be somewhat offensive (you can always choose whether the recipient would appreciate a raunchy style or not), just select another story by clicking the headline. Very cool! Of course, I can't show you any of this, because we're still working on getting it up and running. But as the temporary home page says - we're launching April 1st, come hell or high water. I sent my resume to another job posting this morning...let's see; that's the 400th one since April that I've sent out in response to website job advertisements. How many have responsed to me? Let's see...that would be...uh, oh right, none, zero, nothing, nada, nil...argh.
