The Regulars
I received a very odd parcel through the door the other day. It didn’t even have my name on it.
I chopped open the little package and gazed inside. All I found was 2 little badges and a very odd photo.
The badges and the image are from “The Regulars” website. I stumbled upon it through one of the many CSS showcase sites I check out each day whilst doing the rounds on the web. The site is in all honesty the most peculiar thing I’ve ever seen. People in suits where a gas mask and look at the camera, look at you, and pretend everything is ok. It is all very strange indeed. The site is pretty nice though.
“A replica Russian gas mask purchased from an army surplus store. Also sold as an East German or an American gas mask. Best used for nuclear, biological and chemical protection. Very difficult to breathe in, ironically.” - The Regulars
The strangest thing is the photo which was included with the badges. It’s a picture of a stone tiger its been frantically scribbled on in silver marker and the sentence in the top left corner simply reads “Do stone tigers hunt cement men?” It’s a good question indeed.
One last thing, according to the site there where only 50 other packages sent out, I would love to see what other people got, please leave a comment if you know where I can find more info.

I got mine today too — haven’t been home to see it in person yet, but according to my wife there’s a cool blurry night photo along with the button. I’ll post a photo if I get the time :)

I think I got the mate of Mike’s photo — long-exposure and motion this time — and a single button. (And I need a better digital camera, blah.)
