Mark Your Calendars!

After pouring over our data and crunching the numbers, it is clear to us that the next mission must take place on Friday, April 10, 2009, at precisely 23:32 GMT. This time, your intrepid heroes will venture to separate exotic locales in an effort to stabilize the global economy. OZ–Gibson will be traveling to a remote village on the island of Bali while US–Gibson will be on location in Oaxaca, Mexico.

The mission is twofold:
1) Purchase a particularly awful souvenir.
2) At precisely 23:32 GMT, pose with said souvenir while balancing on one leg (US–Gibson will stand on right leg, OZ–Gibson will stand on left leg) with an animal somewhere nearby.

As you can plainly see from the details above, if we succeed with our mission, the global economy should see immediate improvement.

Photographic documentation and a debriefing by the Gibsons will be posted on this blog as soon as they both can locate internet access. Note: OZ–Gibson might not be able to report on the status of his mission until a week or so after the event.

Thanks for your support.

  1. Excellent!

    Has anyone started a pool on which animal each Gibson will be pictured with?

  2. I demand that the afore mentioned souvenirs appear in two challenges to confirm their purchase and the fact they have been nurtured and cared for.

  3. Excellent point, Captain. I will consult our instruments and charts to see if this may be of benefit to future challenges.

  4. If Scout and Ginger disappear that day, I will know why. Or maybe this will make them want to finally be pet by me.

  5. Yes, we recommend that civilians keep an eye on domestic pets during the event. There is a slight chance that they may exhibit atypical behavior and in rare cases they may be sucked into a wormhole. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause.

  6. I assume that the stipulation is that the animal in the photograph must be a live animal (as opposed to a dead animal, photograph of any animal, stuffed animal, etc.). I just need a little clarification to set my mind at ease. Hopefully all goes well!

  7. Yes, a live animal was the original plan. As you can see, I've succeeded on my end. We'll see how OZ-Gibson fared soon. Cross your fingers!

  8. Yes, a live animal it was. However, being a live cow on a cow farm in Indonesia, I'm not totally sure how long this will be the case.
