Another Piece Ready To Go!

Hey - take a look at these bad boys:

That's right! Those are the business cards I ordered. Apparently there is this awesome company called Vistaprint ( vistaprint.com ) who will send you 250 business cards for $3.99 shipping only. I kid you not - that's what they charged me for them.

Of course I got the plain ones. You could go fancier for more money, order more for just a couple more dollars, etc. But since I have no idea how any of this is actually going to work out, I decided to go plain and simple and inexpensive.

Let me tell you what else - when they sent my confirmation, the estimated delivery date was January 27th. Today is obviously the 22nd - *five days early*!! That's some service right there. And guess where I'm going again if I need more of these cards or some other ones. That's the point and I know that, but it worked for me  :D

So I have been asked why I need business cards for this endeavor. And I will tell you.

First - I plan on putting a couple in each of the letters I send. Kind of a "hint", if you will, that they should maybe try to pass along to other people the idea of driving more courteously.

Second - I am going to try to put a few in the hands of any police officers I see, kind of for the same reason. Maybe they will pass them along and spread the word that no one is in so much of a hurry they can't drive nicely. 

Third - I will give them to people I know, again, hoping to get the word out, and recruit people to my crusade. 

This weekend I am going to finalize my letter, print copies of it, and get them ready to mail. Then Monday, throw myself on the mercy of someone at the local police department. Wish me luck!

All of this could come to naught, but at least I can't say I didn't try to change my world for the better, even if it was just something as minor as traffic. Any little bit helps, right?
