First off, the Whyologists have asked me to remind everyone that the Whyology Survey will close in just ONE week. If you haven't signed up, you'll need to get your rear in gear. If you've signed up and not completed your survey, let me tell you, you are just throwing clams away!

Secondly, Kiki-iki-riki at the Tiki Travel Agency has asked me to announce that Team Challenge 1 of the Solstice Safari has been unveiled. Your team has till Dec 13 to face the challenge and be part of the competition. If you haven't joined a team yet, do it right now!

Finally, City Hall wishes to announce the grand opening of the Whyville Store!

When you visit Whyville, you'll see it right on the Whyville Island. Soon, it'll be stocked with Whyville-style games and activities, but ones that you play off the computer, for a change!

Until then, exclusive Whyville Gift Certificates are available. Certificates are redeemable for Whyville Passes. You can customize them as a holiday gift or a birthday gift, even add a special message for that special someone.

Doesn't someone near and dear to you deserve a Whyville Gift Certificate this busy holiday season?

Keeping you up with the Times,
The Editor
