Oooh, there’s a heated argument going on over at CafeMom about whether or not our fun organic snapsuit is good, clean fun or just too over the top. The article is unnecessarily mean spirited which sort of skews where they want the voting to go, but the comments range from really supportive to plain bizarre. One poster claims we’ve gone way to far but then expresses her love of a onesie that says, “Daddy’s Little Squirt”. Most folks flat-out get that we’re taking the Mickey out of the ultra-serious (or cloyingly cliched) organics movement.

It’s an interesting read, actually, because you get a sense of peoples parenting styles from just a few lines of comment. Check it out and feel free to add your own thoughts (good or bizarre)!

	Mysterio Predicts the Week of February 16, 2009 Disaster strikes! Government offices will close on this day! Banks will all be shuttered and your mailbox will be empty! Do not find solace in your state-run liquor store for they will also be unmanned. Stay indoors with baby and perhaps tomorrow things will return to normal.

I must have died and drifted off to heaven last night because when I awoke this morning, I saw that not only were our Attack of the 50ft. Baby Stacking Blocks featured on BoingBoing.net, but my illustrations were likened to those of Mad Magazine’s “marginal” genius, Sergio Aragones! OMG. Please send money in lieu of funerary flowers to the Sopp estate, Mooresville, NC.

Of course, our fun blocks are available from your presumably deceased pal, wrybabydave here for $28
