Saturday, we all depart to watch first-hand, the man who has graced our hold music for the past 4 years. Whoever says a company party at a Tom Jones concert in a Minnesota casino doesn’t sound like fun, is kidding themselves.

Stay tuned for the flickr streams… we will be rocking out our best leather pants and chest hairs. Or maybe we’ll leave that up to Tom.

Oh yeah, and you too, Nic.

It’s been a little over a week since we launched makemeamerica.com for Stephen Colbert, and by way of an update, here are a few points of interest:

• You can now see Stephen’s delightful visage on several top CSS Galleries. We thank you for that, CSS Galleries. America thanks you.
• There have been over 4300 Oprah book club petition signatures.
• As of this morning, the World Domination map is open for business outside the confines of the United States border. Time to conquer the world!

Speaking of international support, check out Canada — they sure are organized up there:

If the Internet feels slower today, it may be due in part to a new site we just launched called MakeMeAmerica.com.

What started out as a humble effort to sell a few books has turned into something more: a humble effort with big pictures, hero profiles, video excerpts, a petition to Oprah, flickr photo integration, and an interactive world domination map. (And lots of easter eggs.)

The book, I Am America (And So Can You), is written by Stephen Colbert, host of The Colbert Report on Comedy Central and namesake of a baby bald eagle in Bonita Springs.

The Colbert team quickly determined that, in addition to being able to read books, the show’s audience also seemed to have ready access to the internets. One idea turned into two, and pretty soon, Electric Pulp was in on the plan. The rest, as they say, is history.

All that’s left is for you to check it out.

(These guys have.)

The Pee-Wee-Pulp-Word-of-the-Day for Thursday, October 4th is: “Excerpt”

Boo to Nic, for leaving the land of South Dakota, to pursue an Indy lifestlye.
Yay to Nic, for working remotely.

Yay to Dubs for bringing in Going Away treats.
Boo to Dubs for only bringing enough Red Vines for Nic.

I’m pretty sure the GTD experts and lifehacking luminaries would all agree that having a climate-controlled office environment is the first step to finding / maintaining optimal workflow. I don’t think processing quickly in our 89 degree cookbox is possible.

So, if you’re trying to catch us for the next few hours, we’ll be finding our work ch’i in mobile office fashion. And if you’d like to find us, email’s your huckleberry. Unless you’re reading this, right now, in a coffee shop. We might be sitting next to you, stealin’ ur bandwidth.

Pulp showed up late to the lolcats party, so we thought we’d catch up by posting a few of our own…

thx 4 ur bandwit. kthxbai
