    Christmas Orders Deadlines: Dec. 11th (Intl), Dec. 17th (US)

    Wednesday, December 10, 2008 - 05:49 PM

    Just a heads up for Canadians, Brits, Aussies, Kiwis, Europeans, and the 4,800 Sheldon readers in Kuala Lumpur:

    Thursday, Dec. 11th is the last day to order from the Sheldon Store and get it there by Christmas!

    Americans! You have until Dec. 17th to get your orders in, provided you're not using "Media Mail". If you're ordering via First Class or Priority Mail...you're fine up until the 17th. We'll still be shipping daily after that, but any orders after the 17th will be a little too close for comfort.

    So get your orders in now, because the postman's deadlines are knockin'!

    Dang Them and Their Dang Viral Advertising

    I gotta admit, when a Sheldonista sent me this, I didn't immediately spot this as viral advertising. That's how clever the text-integration is. It's clever.

    Verrrrry clever.

    All the more so, because there was an 8-year old part of me that was going "Finally! The theme park recognition I've always wanted...."
