The High Cost of Flying: Silverjet Contest Grounded

By Gabriel Bell

returntosender_silverjet.jpgDear, beloved, valued, remarkably good-looking readers,

We've got some sad news for you. As some of you may know, we've been flogging a collaborative promotion with upstart airline, Silverjet. Alas, the little contest we were holding has been been retired from service like a DC-10 prop plane. We know, we know, we're all choked up about it too. Blame the soaring price of fuel. Blame this middling economy. Blame the difficulties of maintaining a young airline in this time of cutbacks and tight competition. Blame the savaging of our precious environment and the pending extinction of the polar bear. Just don't blame us. Or do. Whatever or whomever you blame, just stick around and keep reading. We're already cooking up contests and giveaways that will fly higher and faster than this grounded bird. Count on it and strap yourselves in for take off.

Kindest Regards, The Management
