Heh. I think anyone who is offended by the Outpost.com ads is way too uptight. I'm not saying they were effective advertising, because I still have never visited Outpost.com and don't know what they're all about--but how can you *not* like an add where they shoot fuzzy hampsters through the O in Outpost.com? Come on! It's great! :-)
