(by the way I dropped acid tonight)
OK, here's another idea to Save Ron and Fez. A Children's Book that we can all sell. And then we can use the proceeds to purchase radio air time, more airplane banner ads, and if it becomes a best seller, we can hire a powerful lobbyist.
I have written the text. Now all I need is for all the talented Sig Pic creators to create a Sig Pic for each page. Then I will pay my own money to publish it and I can give everyone who attends the next Ron and Fez event copies to sell (like Girl Scout Cookies).
Here is my Children's Book draft. It was inspired by a recent post which proved people really like anchovies (known as anchovetas in South America). Just pick a page, reply to a particular page with a Sig Pic added, and we're on our way!
PS - I will create a special First Edition Copy that Fez can sign and we can sell that for like $200 each. And just think, Fez will not only be able to read it, he will be able to SEE it! Cause he has synesthesia. We can even create a deluxe edition that comes with 3D-like glasses which replicates synaesthesia for small children.

Text: Fez is not a traditional Peruvian name. Fez's mother thought about naming him Manuel and then calling him Manolo as a nickname, but she finally decided to call him Fez.

Text: Most of the men who live on Fez's Island are fisherman. But Fez's father works for Burlington Coat Factory as their head of Latin American Sales. Burlington Coat Factory is not affiliated with Burlington Industries
Picture: Picture of several fishermen and Fez's dad, who wears a suit and looks like a man who works as a salesman.

Text: Fez's Mom is very smart. Even though she only has the equivalent of a 7th grade education, she knows things like Celt is really pronounced like "Kelt". So when she watches basketball on Televiso Peruana, she always cheers "Go Boston Keltics", not "Celtics" like the other Peruvian mothers.

Text: Fez's Island is famous for two industries, fertilizer and fishing. Much of Peru's GDP is dependent on exports of these two products. When the New Inti (Sol) was devaluated and then pegged to the US Dollar, these two industries managed to help Peru overcome hyperinflation

Text: The Island is rich in fertilizer because of all the birds that nest on it. The birds are attracted to the island because the waters surrounding the island are wintering grounds for the Peruvian anchoveta.
Picture: Picture of many birds who may have just eaten several Peruvian anchovetas.

Text: The bird droppings are called guano. The guano is rich in nitrogen and used in fertilizer. People who live on Fez's Island often leave their windows closed, because guano has an unpleasant smell.
Picture: Picture of people with their windows closed. They do not have a happy look on their faces, but they don't look sad either.

Text: Anchovetas are called anchovies is the United States. Fez knows this because his father makes frequent trips to Burlington, Vermont, where the headquarters of his father's company is located. Fez's father often orders pizza for lunch, and some people put anchovies on it.

Text: The anchovetas congregate off of Western Peru, in an area called the Milne Edwards Deep. They are concentrated there because of a phenomenon called the Peru Current. While it is not as concentrated a source of marine life as the krill concentrations off Antarctica, there are still a lot of anchovetas off of Peru.
