Oh snap -- the Midnight Sun magnets are in!
Who's got a spot on their fridge for a lovely little Midnight Sun magnet?
I know you do.
A box of super sweet Midnight Sun magnets landed on my desk today, compliments of the Baltimore Sun marketing department and our crew of community coordinators.
I don't have an exact figure, but there are a ton of these things in this box. I can't count them all. There are just too many.
That's why, if you e-mail me (sam.sessa@baltsun.com) your home address, I'll mail you one ASAP. Because, I mean, everybody could use a little Midnight Sun in their kitchen.
I'm going to carry some in my pockets and hand-deliver them to bars around town ...
In fact, all of the Baltimore Sun bloggers got magnets featuring their logos. As you see, I'm trying to collect the whole set.
I'm also trying to get everybody to pitch in to rent a helicopter, hover over Light Street and drop them on unsuspecting commuters during rush hour.
How awesome would it be if the sky rained Baltimore Sun magnets, which stuck to all the cars and trucks? I don't have to answer this question, but I will anyway: It would be pretty awesome.

How many? and Give them to me.

I think you want to make that, "Most of the Baltimore Sun bloggers got magnets featuring their logos."
Just sayin'.
