So Brian has been IM-ing me to let me know about all of the traffic he's seen to his blog post on the mangled gift card his manager got from Coldwater Creek. (He's such a nice guy he's worried that his post may be seen as critical of CWC... so we've been chatting about his post.)

Yucking it up on IM we were talking about how this may be the first time in the world that anyone has ever done HTML encoding in cursive. Then Brian had a master stroke: Send your friends Gift Cards with messages in l33t sp34k!!!

You thought those ladies with excellent cursive skills were confused with &quote? how'z about watching them try to write out:

1 h0p3 y00r xm45 pwnz0rz!

(Translated: I hope your xmas rocks/pwnzorz!)
