Edvard:
My signature was inspired by signs like these below, particularly one I saw in an aquarium on the Oregon coast when I was 7 years old which read: "Children unsupervised by parents will be fed to the sharks". I never stuck so close to my mom in a public place before... :'(
Several iterations of my sig can be found in many places public and virtual, most of them saying something like "Children left unattended will be given a/an espresso/red bull/candy and a free puppy/kitten"
In the interest of better semantics, I pared that down to "a mocha(1) and a puppy(2)".
1- Because a mocha contains chocolate, therefore appealing to children, but would have more "kick" than a simple candy bar.
2- Because puppies require much more responsibility to care for than a kitten, hence a scenario with a greater potential for difficulty.
Also, the word "free" (in the original) makes the statement more 'wordy' than it needs to be in describing the situation, as associating it with the second object implies the first object (espresso) was not free, when the verb "given" clearly implies it and/or both as being gratis.
WAAAAYYY too much thinking put into that. o_O
Enjoy the pics:

It's more amusing, in a sad sort of way, when you have the ads turned on and see this:

Yeah, I agree, hence my efforts in in the other thread to develop new ad ideas.
PS App what is your oDesk handle and how much do you charge? :)
On another topic via ChrisG and you if you made a pre-priced app, it's not that $6 will break the bank, it's about trusting the payment mechanism. I trust DC (via that other payment processor I can't recall the name of!) and I trust oDesk.
