It took me less than 2 weeks to save up 20.<\/p>\n<p>Well, the promotion is still far from its end date, and I have now saved up another 20 bottle caps.  The promotion has a limit of one per address, and what would I do with a second Grizzlies cap anyway?  (I don&#8217;t plan on growing another head.)<\/p>\n<p>So, I&#8217;m offering the second Grizzlies cap as a reward to one of you, my loyal readers.  First person to e-mail me their mailing address (needed so they&#8217;ll know where to send the cap) gets it.  E-mail me at paul at paulryburn dot com.<\/p>\n<p>The fine print:  They only ship the caps to U.S. addresses, so my international readers are out of luck, and I assume no responsibility if they run out of Grizzlies caps and don&#8217;t send you one (which happens all the time with these kinds of promotions).<\/p>\n<p>First to reply gets it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I&#8217;m at work, I tend to drink 20 oz.
