After we wrote the book, Addison Wesley sent Bryan and I some pre-paid FedEx envelopes so we could send signed copies of the book to the reviewers and editors. Our pal Vinnie Liu was a reviewer but he had already come by our offices in Atlanta where he received his signed copy.

This presented Caleb and I with a very interesting situation: We had a prepaid and pre-addressed FedEx envelope for Vinnie and nothing legitimate that we needed to send him.

What to do, what to do?

So we cut out the tracking number, cut out the return address, and we sent him a giant pickle.

No message. No Explanation. Just Pickle.

Beware friends beware. The pickle wars have begun!

Pickles + FedEx = teh Awesome!!!111
