Time Warp

So about a week before Super Tuesday I ordered some swag from the John Edwards campaign - a button and a magnetic bumper sticker. The very next day he dropped out of the Democratic race. Fantastic. A couple weeks later I got my button in the mail, no mention of the sticker.

Today I received a package on my doorstep - it was an odd shape, not fitting with anything I've ordered recently. I opened it up to find my magnetic bumpersticker, and a note telling me that my lawn poster was out of stock. Not having a lawn, I had never ordered a poster for it. But the note told me not to worry, instead they had sent me an item of greater value. The odd shape in the package was in fact a plastic mug. Not only does this object pound into me the irony of my choice of candidate, but it also has written on it the motto "Tomorrow begins today!"

I feel like I'm either playing an ARG or someone in the past is trying to contact me via the US Postal Service.
