A reader forwarded me a Tintin search query from Cafepress. This is why I don’t shop at Cafepress. How could anyone get away with calling this a “Tintin” product. LAME! The image below is supposed to be “Tintin Mousepad”. A real crime.

We are happy to announce a new program at ShopTintin.com to say “Thanks” to our loyal and regular customers.
The program is simple: once you qualify, every time you shop with us, your sub-total is automatically reduced by 10%. This applies for ALL purchases,* even during SALE periods. We know, this is pretty awesome.
How does one qualify for such a fantastic benefit? All you have to do is purchase $400.00 or more of merchandise at ShopTintin.com. This is a cumulative program, so it’s not like you have to buy $400.00 all at once. In fact, most of those who qualify for the program as of today have made 5-6 purchases over two years.
How do you know when you reach the threshold? We keep close tabs on our orders and once we see that you have hit or exceeded the $400.00 purchase ceiling, your status is changed and then all future purchases are 10% cheaper.
If you have any questions about the program, or are wondering how close you are to qualifying, please send an email to john@ShopTintin.com.
All the best,
John, co-owner
ShopTintin.com
*The discount does not apply to shipping costs and may not be used for in-store or telephone orders. You must have spent $400.00 BEFORE you qualify for the program.

We just got back from a much needed vacation. This winter we went to Costa Rica. In spite of being ripped off by the police ($65 bucks), having our car burgled twice (someone actually stole my eye-glasses), we had a great time. The weather was a bit on the rainy side as we were in the Rain Forest part of the country, so Tintin didn’t get out much. We did manage to remember him during a taste test of Costa Rica’s oldest beer, Imperial. My wife and I thought it could also be called Ottokar’s Brew given the regal looking bird on the can. Even though Tintin is not a drinker, we thought he looked quite good in this shot.
