Good morning, Hickins Tuesday. Remember back in May when I told you that your birthday present would be a little late? Well, it's here. I was thinking, what do you get a 38-year-old man who has no interest in worldly luxuries? And then I realized, you get him a billboard. So I got you a billboard. Actually, I got you several billboards near our childhood home in Orlando, Florida. Like, remember our childhood 7-Eleven where we used to bike to get slurpees? Boom! Billboard. Also, remember Wally's? I got you a billboard there too. There are a few others around town. It turns out renting billboards is a bit addictive. If you live in Orlando and want to check out these beauties in person, I'll put some links in the doobly-doo. Okay, so there's more. You may recall a few months ago that I was like, I enjoy sponsoring AFC Wimbledon so much, and it has made me want to sponsor other things. Right, that was a trick. I was actually seeking to buy sponsorships for an absolutely remarkable thing. Let's start with AFC Wimbledon, the world's favorite third-tier English football team, in addition to having some excellent ads around the stadium, an absolutely remarkable thing has become AFC Wimbledon's training kit sponsor, seen here in the run-up to their recent game against West Ham United. Also, you sponsor the Firebird's first robotics team out of Flower Town, Pennsylvania, as well as the Doc-Bottix Robotics team in Canada, seen here with absolutely remarkable thing and teni and the beginnings of their robot, who is named Carl. You also sponsor first robotics teams in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and Carmel, Indiana, as well as FRC Rapid Acceleration in Rapid City, South Dakota. An absolutely remarkable thing also sponsors a made-of-awesome speech-and-debate team in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, and won in West Anchorage, Alaska. And there's CalSoul, the 2018 UC Berkeley Solar Car team, which is building, testing, and racing street legal, solar-powered vehicles. An absolutely remarkable thing sticker will be on their next car called Takion. On the sports front, an absolutely remarkable thing is the official sock sponsor of the Austin Torch, a professional women's ultimate Frisbee team in Austin, Texas. Also Hank, you sponsor the Montana State University Women's Rugby Club, who were nice enough to make these absolutely remarkable thing rugby balls. And you sponsor the amazing Stockbridge High School Girls LaCross team in Georgia. But wait, you say, what about baseball? Well, Hank, what if I were to tell you that next spring, a group of young people outside Boston will learn about hitting and catching and teamwork? That group of young people? The Mission Hill absolutely remarkable things! Really? Here's some of the Marlassies and oh my god, the cuteness. Now I know what you're wondering, Hank, where's the quidditch? Well don't worry, you are now the left-sleeved sponsor of the Dutch National Quidditch team, the Flying Dutchman. That sponsorship makes it possible for them to compete in the 2019 quidditch European Games. Speaking of Harry Potter, I also got you some sponsorships on a podcast we both love, Harry Potter and the Sacred Text. But wait, there's more. Hank, your book is also sponsoring the University of the Western Capes rowing team in South Africa, making it possible for them to travel around the country for competitions. And an absolutely remarkable thing, sponsors a rugby team composed of future doctors at the University of Glasgow, as well as a high school quiz bowl team in Ohio. Now, of course, Hank, your book does not need me or those sponsorships to get people excited about it. It has received glowing, starred reviews from bookwist and library journal and Kirkus. Patrick Freakin' Rothfist wrote a blurb for it as did Ashley Ford and Catherine Valente and several other great writers. But I wanted to sponsor a few wonderful groups and teams because an absolutely remarkable thing is such a beautiful exploration of what humans can accomplish when we collaborate effectively. I learned of so many beautiful and worthy projects after I made that call for sponsorship, and I regret that I had to select so few. But the whole process reminded me that all the time people are working together to increase world awesome and decrease world suck. From rugby fields to robotics labs, we really can accomplish so much more together than alone. So thank you for inspiring me. An absolutely remarkable thing comes out in just two weeks. There are links to pre-order in the doobie doobie low. Also if you can, come see Hank and me or Hank without me on the absolutely remarkable thing tour. The shows in Boston and Santa Cruz are sold out, but there are still tickets elsewhere Hank. I hope you liked your present. I will see you on Friday. PS, huge thanks to everyone involved in this project, but especially to Rosiana Hoss Rojas who as usual made it all happen.
