Number twenty-eight, you will be missed... even though I don't know who you are.

SooooOOO? Whaddya think? Pretty good lookin' blog I got here, huh? I was gonna do some fancy artwork across the top and then design an original background to compliment the banner and then I was thinking of designing a unique font to give the 200lb Man a bit of extra flare... but that is a TON of work and just thinking about it was pretty exhausting so I just used a bunch of stuff preloaded onto Blogger's design template. Took me about eight minutes. I like it.

Someone didn't like it, though. I lost a follower today. Someone was so upset by the little space sparklies and the cool art-deco font that they just couldn't be associated with me any longer. Or maybe it's because yesterday I was a little less than supportive of the typical American's right to be a doofus. I guess we'll never know.

Whether due to political discord or lack of design appeal, the important thing is that I am down one (1) 200-pounder. That means there's an opening. So, here it is: Another contest.

You get me the most followers, I make you a t-shirt. It doesn't even have to be a 200lb Man t-shirt. I'll put whatever you want on it. All you have to do is get people to follow me and then post your name as a comment. At the end of a week, I'll do some tallying and whoever's name is posted the most often is the winner. Don't want a shirt? Me neither. Tell you what: Stickers. Stickers too "late-nineties local punk band merch" for you? Magnets. Don't like magnets? How about a t-shirt? I'll find something.

Now, go my children. Go and tell the world the moderately interesting news of the 200lb Man!

(NOTE: My wife claimed that the previous font looked like something a child would select. She then proceeded to demonstrate how it forced her to read like a robot. So, to avoid a messy divorce, I changed the font to this.)

Thank you,
