A CHUCKLE POST Plus Poll Widget Is Up! Start Voting, Kiddies!
I had a good chuckle when I saw this on IGE.com’s home page:
I have just one question for the graphic artist in charge of all IGE’s banners:
Why do you keep picking on that poor orc?
Last time I saw him, you made him a cowboy for your Fourth of July ad. For a second, I wondered what the Village People theme had to do with the Fourth.
Then for your start-of-the-summer promo, and if memory serves me well, you turned him into a beachcombing, ice cream-licking beefcake stud with testosterone overload to displace Fabio from the cover of a paperback romance novel.
And Remus told me that you guys turned him into a "bling pimp" (his words, not mine, okay?) sometime last month, though I think I missed that one. He said you piled on so many shiny gold accessories on the orc, even Mr. T had a seizure when he saw them.
If you keep this up, my friends and I are going to start an Orc Watch. :p
Anyway, on to more good stuff….
MY POLL WIDGET IS UP!
Woohoo, thanks, Cletus, who helped me for free and worked on the widget without stopping for food, water or a bathroom break.
Start voting, kiddies, and let me know HOW MUCH YOU SPEND ON WOW GOLD IN A SINGLE PURCHASE . Poll ends in a month.
It’ll be Friday in a few hours. Then I’m off to somewhere exotic — where sharks and funny-looking fish abound and where a harpoon will come in handy to save my sorry behind should the situation call for it.

You really feel so sorry for the orc, eh? You have a soft side to yourself, after all!
“Off to somewhere exotic — where sharks and funny-looking fish abound and where a harpoon will come in handy to save my sorry behind should the situation call for it.” — Jeez, just exactly where are you going? It sounds like a National Geographic expedition.

Nice to know you took your readers’ suggestions.
I think that orc is IGE’s official mascot. I could be wrong. :p
Have a safe and happy trip. Watch out for jellyfish too.

I thought this orc was the same one on the card “Orcish Conscripts” from the CCG Magic: The Gathering. Well, minus the “picking-the-nose” thing.
