Here endeth the International Year of the Potato
Everyone out there has their own ideas for how to commemorate the close of the year 2008; most of them come in the form of top-10 lists. That's all fine and good, but we here at VioPac would like to take a different tack: we'd like a refund. Yes, it had its good points, or so we're told, but there can be no serious denial that the year was, as advertised in 2007, a gross disappointment and a total violation of Truth in Advertising laws. Claiming now, at the end, that a newer "2009" model is somehow an improvement presupposes that any of us have any faith left in the Calendar, and purports to solve the inherent design malfunctions of 2008 with 365 half-hearted copies they couldn't even think to alter the names of! Foul, I cry! We'll not be taken in so lightly.
