Update #6: I Need Your Mailing Address For Deeds & Shirts + New Round, Inchcorporation, Mystery & Inchtrigue
Posted on October 8, 2009
Inchvestors of the realm, greetings from Detroit,
Please send me your mailing addresses at jerryp[at]gmail[dot]com if you've inchvested in 20 inches or 50 inches (or more). 20 inches gets you a one square inch printed deed to LOVELAND and a magnifying glass, and 50 inches gets you a deed and an "I'VE GOT INCHES IN DETROIT" t-shirt. I'm working on getting both printed right now. Hot stuff.
If you inchvested in less than that and want to level up, I quietly posted a new round of inches on Wednesday morning. You can add to your initial inchvestment there: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jerry/loveland-round-3-im-not-afraid
The shall we say mysterious video attached to the current round foreshadows an upcoming occurrence related to the official inchcorporation of Why Don't We Own This? LLC in Michigan, the company I'm starting for LOVELAND and future micro-ownership projects. Hmm... I wonder what it will be, and what its relationship to the Declaration of Inchdependence is. :)
I'd like to share more here but I know how hard it is to keep everyone's attention. We're all so busy! (Except you. Stop slacking. jk :)) Feel free to call me on the phone at 908-343-1981 to catch up and stay tuned to http://7billionfriends.com .

Read more about them and see pictures of them at http://bit.ly/fEeec.
