Welcome to Gaia! ::

Today is Father's Day, the day to celebrate the male parental unit in your life. It is today that we should reflect on our relationships with our fathers, and it is a day that we should give him our time, our attention, and particularly our love. Whether it is through a tie or a tool, a phone call or a prayer, tell your dad you love him.



If you are new to the guild or have not already done so, please befriend the E-Vents Guild Paperboy. Not only will this make sending the newsletter easier on us, it will now symbolize whether or not you wish to be part of the guild, meaning if you are not the E-Vents Guild Paperboy's homeboy or -girl, then you will be removed from the guild. So! Make sure that doesn't happen and friend him now!





It's that time of the year again—the time of year that is almost completely devoid of any real holiday cheer. Certainly the hot summer months sometimes leave something to be desire. But with such carefree days ahead we are free to make our own festivities! So let's borrow the winter season's spirit and embrace it against its will with a time honored tradition! Let's have a Secret Santa! We are hoping that this event will help foster some good will on Gaia, some new friendships, and maybe even some name drops in a few signatures. It's what makes the kids go crazy.

The sign up period starts today and will end Wednesday, June 18th, so be sure to sign up now! Don't miss out on all the crazy, secretive fun. Our detectives will get special rewards again, too!



You may remember our certain, little guild-wide give away involving an active member and a sealed Monthly Collectible. Well, the posts were tallied, and the online dice were rolled. This month's winner has been decided. That winner is Azure Mia! Congratulations, Azure Mia. Truth and Credibility will be sending you a sealed letter for this month of June. We hope you enjoy it!

Now, for those of you who did not win but would still like to, the same deal applies: Every member of the guild is assigned a secret number, and those of you who are active (i.e. posting and participating in threads) will have their number put into an online hat. So, upon the release of the next newsletter will be an announcement revealing who won a Sealed Thank You Letter from that month. That's right! All you have to do is post, and you could win a sealed Monthly Collectible! It's as easy as that!





This contest is inspired by the Summer Secret Santa event and Santa himself! It is from his example that we know that keeping lists about behavior is beneficial, and that dividing it into twain is a perfect black-and-white solution to a particularly gray aspect of human nature! What you need to do to win teh phat lewtz is below! Follow the rules, or you might end up on the wrong side of the list-tracks and miss your chance at winning the radical prizes!

In 1985 state health department employee Ron Hall won a "choose our slogan" contest for the Oregon Health Department Fitness Club. His winning entry? "Just do it."

Nike and Weiden & Kennedy, also based in Portland Oregon, began using it a couple years later and it is still being used today.

Ron Hall has never been credited or rewarded for his help launching one of the greatest marketing campaigns in history.
