Mike Dorman’s Revenge of the Daisy posters are here, and man do they look great. Wimbot is taking quite a beating from The Daisy, but he deserves it after all of that stomping.
I have a few of these glossy 11×17 beauties to give away absolutely100% free. Here’s all you need to do:
Commit a random act of kindness. I don’t care what it is — pay for a stranger’s coffee, give a panhandler some change, tell a stranger he or she is beautiful, pick up some garbage — anything will do. Just go be nice. “God damnit, you’ve got to be kind,” to quote Mr. Vonnegut.
How will I know? I won’t. I trust you. Who lies about something like that? But if you want to tell me your story I want to hear it. You can leave a comment, or you can email me at jostaffordjr@gmail.com.
About the poster: It’s hand-signed by both Mike and me and should fit in any off the shelf 11×17 frame. It should thumb tack nicely to a cubicle wall, too. I’m sure this rare item is going to be worth tens of cents in the future, so act soon!

I’d say that was extraordinarily nice. Free art coming your way!

Today the people in front of me didn’t have money for their lunch at the hospital cafeteria. So I bought it. Not extraordinarily nice, but not too shabby.

Okay, boss. I’m trying for a double here. Random act of kindness: I dropped off 12 $5 Starbucks gift cards to the NICU that took care of my son for two months as gifts for their overnight shift caregivers. I also dropped off 12 $5 Starbucks gift cards to the local Loaves & Fishes which delivers meals to the homebound.
Can I count those as two acts of kindness? If so and assuming this late reply qualifies for a poster still, please send my poster to @ohdotoh and @alannacoca. That’s my double act of paying it forward. Peace.

Laura B., every week you retweet my babble and otherwise support my little creative endeavor. If that’s an act of kindness then I don’t know what it is. Free art for Laura B.!

I still haven’t accomplished this. Am I not a nice person? Now I am questioning my basic human decency! I actually find it much easier to think of a number of ways in which other people have been randomly kind to me. Also, I work in a service based industry, so I do nice things for people all day, but since it is part of my job it can’t be counted. If there is still time, I will keep trying. (Actually, I guess I should keep trying in any event. How hard is it to work some random, unpaid kindness into a day?)

I wish I could get away with telling sad ladies that they have beautiful smiles, but I fear I’d come off like that creepy old guy on Family Guy.

Went to Target for the 3rd time this week because I kept forgetting needed items. Needless to say I was annoyed and in a rush with all three of my kids in tow. When we made our way to the front of the line to the cashier she gave the obligatory, “Hello, I hope you found everything you needed today,” and then she smiled. In that moment I took a step back in my mind and looked at her instead of thru her (which I sadly admit I sometimes do when I am caught up in my own list of tasks to do) and I saw what a simply beautiful smile she had. I looked at her straight in the eyes and said, “You have a beautiful smile that really lights up a room.” She stopped what she was doing and smiled that smile again and said with watery eyes, “you have just made my day.” I shyly smiled back and said, “You’re welcome.”
More than anything I think she made my day because I could see how much it meant to her to be noticed.

If that doesn’t deserve free art what does? You’re in!

Today, my older-ish, technically challenged and very impatient neighbor got her first laptop – none of her kids were around to set it up, and rather than dive under the bed when I heard her voice on the answering machine yelling that she needed help – I went over and tried to wrestle a brand new HP laptop to the ground and we are both still alive. Me. The person who still has not mastered the basics of an 8-year-old Mac laptop. Yeah, you heard right. I helped.
