Do I have to choose? It is a joke and we are seriously doing it. Or, I should say, we would seriously do it if 50 people had joined. Hopefully it will feel irrelevant in 24 hours.
First time using The Point?
This campaign has a tipping point -- you pledge to take action, but only if 50 people people join.
This way, you know your participation will make a difference.
See how else you can make something happen on The Point.

8 is a hard number to remember. Between 0 and 9, it’s definitely the toughest. Nothing really challenges it until you get to 12. 12 is hard too.
Unfortunately, 8 happens to be the number of homes owned by John McCain. Understandably, it’s a thing he sometimes has trouble remembering. This is embarrassing. It makes him look either too rich or too old, neither of which help his chances this November.
So here’s an easy way we can help. If 50 of us spend a little time preparing clothing, toiletries, and other essentials labeled with a little reminder – “I have 8 houses” – he’ll never forget!
So we’ll each make a little something. I’m going to make him a money clip. You could make him socks, a cap, a shirt, a key chain, a monocle – whatever you want.
Once 50 people join, we’ll all get started and arrange a day to mail John our creations. Please post a comment with what you’re going to make!

I’m going to send a necklace made with Monopoly houses, one for each residence.
Do we know if he has any pets? Someone could send a collar displaying the reminder.

Julia Herkimer replied on Sep 24, 2008I think I’ll record it on that keychain thing. It’s called “My Lil’ Reminder”. I can hear it now-“You have 8 houses, oh, and don’t forget to take your Viagra.”
