Where were we? Oh, we were talking about your sending gift subscriptions of McSweeney's to your friends and family. You should do this. Mail a check today, and the recipient will be sent, in time for Christmas, a personally inscribed copy of the first issue -- all 144 glorious, printed-in-Reykjavik pages, complete with a lovely gift card. After that, he or she or they will receive three more, with Issue #2 out in mid-February. But you have to act today. If you send a check today, on December 14, the proprietors of McSweeney's will get it in time to fulfill your order before they go to a wedding in San Francisco, then to their cousins' home for a nice Irish Catholic Christmas, celebrated in cable-knit sweaters and among many blond children, the way Jesus intended. So. Send the $28 to: McSweeney's
Note: There are exactly 120 copies -- no more, no less -- of the first issue of Timothy McSweeney's Quarterly Concern still available, so act while you can. Also note: You very well might get your arms caught in a shredder tomorrow, which would make acting much, much more difficult. So act today. And this: There are also McSweeney's T-shirts. They will not arrive by Christmas, but will arrive in early January. They are $16, and emblazoned, in black type on white cotton, across their chests is this: TIMOTHY
.... designed and executed according to the high standards to which McSweeney's readers have become accustomed. That is all. Act today. Or right now.
