Red alert! Red Alert! Panic!

You’ve read about it in the papers, seen it on TV. The Suicide Squirrel Death Cult. That is why several years ago I made a primitive JavaScript-based lump of code that people could stick in their primitive blogs to keep the world safe.

Then all the cool kids starting using WordPress and eventually I joined them. I have decided to modernize the Alert Advisory, turning it into a widget so all can share and spread the word.

Are you part of the solution, or part of the problem?

• Download the widget from the WordPress repository, or you can have your blog automatically install it.
• Install the widget and include your own smart-assery
• Carefully review the actions to take at every alert level. Did I miss something? Leave a comment!
• Pat yourself on the back and have another beer!

Alert level green! All is well!

You really don’t have to. It’s not like there’s anything particularly groundbreaking here. But remember: every buck you slide my way delays for another few minutes the time I have to go out and get a real job. Think about the other things I might accomplish in that few minutes! A cure for cancer? World Peace? Who doesn’t want that?

In fact, if I do accomplish World Peace before I have to get a job, I’ll dedicate one Day of Peace to each person who donates here. Imagine it: “This day of peace and happiness around the world is dedicated to [your name here].” That would be super-sweet, wouldn’t it?

Realistically, though, I’ll probably just buy beer and think of something else to send flying across the screen.
