Re: Free makes everything better
Consider it Midnight Sun's official slogan.
I Googled "Free Makes Everything Better" and MS was the first site that popped up.
You know what that means?
It's mine.
The only downside: The acronym FMEB is hard to pronounce.
Still, I'd like to have T-Shirts made.
Or better yet -- business cards with the slogan on them, kinda like what Neal Shaffer is doing.
Instead of paying my bar tab, I could just leave one of the cards with the bill.
Free Makes Everything Better.
Hey bartender: You've been FMEBed!
Thoughts?

With some of the bartenders in Baltimore, I doubt think they would take to kindly to the card.

ha. while i agree with the theory, making it a tag line might be a bit of a reach.
but if you get a bar to have a "free friday" or something i will be forced to bow down to your greatness.

GDA! I was wondering where you've been ... I'm getting ready to name check you in a post later today.
Also, ryan, don't think I don't have the power to do that. I just choose not to use it in the name of ethics.
