Imitation is the highest form of flattery

Looks like others want to join in on the Cinnamon Challenge. One guy is even holding his own CC2K2. Pictures should be coming soon. And I'm looking forward to hearing the results and seeing his pictures.

There has been talks in my own circle of what challenges we will do next. Everyday now someone will just blurt out with random ideas. Mike's been trying to get Joel to go to The Block and eat lunch with his arms covered in chunky peanut butter that's been in Mike's desk for who knows how long now. Silly stuff like that which none of us have any intention of really doing. Except Mike maybe.

The problem with "what to do next" is the biggie. Everyone who is amused wants you to top yourself... but whatever you do, it won't be as good, and you'll end up becoming a parody of yourself, clamoring for the attention you received for 15 minutes.

I had the same temptation. http://www.unclestu.com --- selling coffee on ebay. It was a great joke, I was world famous for 10 minutes. Everyone asked "what are you going to sell on ebay next?" The correct answer, of course, is nothing. Enjoy what you've done, and move on.
