My favorite music and some of my favorite bands! To me, there is NOTHING like listening to OLD metal, Zep, Deep purple, Ozzy, Maiden..etc.. on an analog stereo ( yes we still have one..

| DON'T PANIC - Towel Day 2012! | |
| Posted by JT_ on May 25, 2012 12:00 am | |
The Answer is: PHEW now that we have that out of the way, I'm sure no one has panicked, right? You all had your towels at the ready, like the hoopiest of froods. It's possible you have no idea what I am talking about (GASP!)-- I found this incredibly handy infographic to explain everything. What, that's not enough? In that case, head on over to TowelDay.org! This holiday is a Puma favorite, and one of the best ways to finish up Geek Month. :) The Towel Day Celebration begins now, May 25th, and will run until 11:59 PM on May 30th! That's 6 full days of hitchhiking the galaxy, woohoo! Gifting Stump -- If you know a friend who needs a little extra to make them REALLY hoopy, you will have until the end of the celebration to send them fun gifts! Do Alphas Panic? -- NO WAY! Alphas always know where their towels are. You should go investigate to see what they're up to! Active Users Get Towels! -- That's right, anyone active in the last 4 days has received the 2012 commemorative Pink Cape Towel. Tie it around your neck and never forget it at home! Fun Items -- We couldn't have a celebration without some new themed items. See if you can find them all! P3 wishes you the happiest of Towel Days! Enjoy! |

| Geek Month & Enviro-Collector | |
| Posted by JT_ on May 24, 2012 3:11 pm | |
| I know, I know... Towel Day is tomorrow and everyone is running around trying to get their favorite towels ready for the celebrations. BUT! We still have Geek Month items today. :D A space theme... and items that are in wildly different shops from each other. Can you figure them out? ALSO! The Enviro-Collector has told me she has decided to clean out her bag for Towel Day (maybe she needs room for her towel too?). That means 5 older environments are retiring, and 5 new ones will be showing up! Here are the retirees: • [ EC #032 ] Dreamheart • [ EC #033 ] Sunrise Sparkle • [ EC #034 ] Smog (I hear a collective sigh of relief!) • [ EC #035 ] Fog • [ EC #036 ] WOW - Orange ENJOY! |

| Geek Month - It's a Secret! | |
| Posted by JT_ on May 22, 2012 1:31 pm | |
| Who might that dashing Puma be? It's very difficult to tell... Can you find today's items with just that one hint? :) Also a quick reminder that Geek Month items will be in shops until June 15th, so you will have some extra time to grab the items released towards the end of the month. :) Right now the items are still "hidden" in the Item Search and Item Demo so people can discover at their own pace during the month. They will be released for both the search and demo on June 1st! |

| Posted by JT_ on May 21, 2012 4:57 pm | |
| We're down to our last 2 weeks of Geek Month, but that means 9 more days of goodies! :) Today's items (yes, plural!) are something that one of those epic fantasy heroes might need, especially since they are usually on an extremely long journey! IMPORTANT: • Don't forget to check out Monday Music Madness! There are fun themed prizes to be won, as always. So if you haven't participated yet-- there's no day like today! • Newzy Puma has begun reporting once again... What could be going on this time?? |
