They'll take it at face value and buy you one. And I'll get a bunch of snaps of my Furby in assorted action poses around the San Juan mountains in Colorado. This is either the most insanely brilliant way to make money or the most stupid idea I've ever heard. I can't decide which. Our summers may be hot and miserable, but at least we have some alternatives, such as sipping a beverage at our favorite beach.
Life is different in the Midwest.
If you don't think so, just check out the CornCam, which keeps you updated on the progress of a cornfield every 15 minutes. I couldn't help but use it since it's so straight it's actually kind of weird. All that's missing is the Stuckey's cam every 500 miles and you'd think you were in the heartland of this great country. You can get the site to send e-postcards of your favorite scene to a chum or copy and paste the URL if you would rather do it manually. The pictures themselves are a few years old, so if you've used your lottery winnings to build that dream condo on the beach in the past year, you'll have to get the Polaroid out and snap it yourself.
