We’re having a baby!
Well not all of us, but our production technician Mira (Mimi) is. So, we have decided to have a “guess the birth date and gender” contest. (Hint: June)
Every order placed between now and then gets an entry form. The winner will receive a nice package of Scorpion merchandise (and a custom engraved iPod Nano).
Just fill out the form and fax it back to us at 1-877-377-4036.
