New scan for another round of guessing to get free movie tickets! 03/12/2010

Two Free Cineplex Movie Passes to First Correct Guess in the Comments or via Twitter

In the interest of keeping the Scan of the Week exciting, we’ve decided to step it up a notch and offer a prize to the first correct guess each week (see rules below). This week should be challenging, but I’m sure someone will claim the movie tickets! The first person who correctly identifies the scan of the week and enters it into the comments on the blog page or replies via twitter will receive two movie passes for Cineplex Odeon. Obviously this is a local contest, so for those who aren’t in the Vancouver area, we’d be glad to offer you the movie passes, but you’d have to fly to Vancouver to use them. We’ll notify the winner via email or twitter and you can swing by and collect your prize at our W. 2nd location in Vancouver. Happy guessing and best of luck!

Congratulations to Jon from @cadesigntek for guessing our scan correctly last week :) Enjoy the show!

For those of you who haven’t seen the Scan of the week before, here is our usual intro:

At PacBlue Printing we just happen to have one of the most powerful scanners available anywhere called the Cruse Scanner. It’s the same scanner used by the Vatican, NASA and the Getty Museum to digitally archive their artifacts. So, let me tell you that it scans in an amazing amount of detail so when you zoom in real tight, it remains crystal clear. On Friday of each week we are going to scan an everyday object or item on our ultra high-resolution scanner and see if you can guess what it is. It could be just about anything, food, household item, you name it we might scan it. It’s that simple.

So, here goes. Take a look at the picture below and see if you can guess what it is by answering in the blog comments section below the post. This one is harder than last week, so we’ll see how you make out. Next week we’ll scan something new and send it out along with the answer to this one. You’ll be able to check out the full size image and zoom in and out on the image to see your own extreme close-ups. Have fun and if you are interested in learning more about our high quality scanning services be sure to check out our website’s scanning services page.

Close-up from Last Week

Rules: The rules are pretty straightforward (after all this is for fun right?) and haven’t been vetted by our legal team to avoid a monster law suit based on alleged discriminatory practices. Basically, first correct guess to post via twitter or the blog comments can claim the movie tickets. In the interest of fairness and to spread the wealth around, previous winners will be ineligible from winning for 1 month at which point they are free to win again. So, have fun, and guess away.

An Essay: How Canada has changed as a result of winning Gold on Canadian Soil!

Today we are happy to have a guest blogger, Ian Black. Ian Black is PacBlue’s copy centre manager and resident expert on all things printing. In his free time Ian enjoys waxing poetic about sports, politics and general social issues under many pseudonyms. Today, he’s writing under his real name and gives us insight into how Canada has changed as a result of Alex Bilodeau’s triumph in Moguls. As you might have heard, Alex Bilodeau is the first Canadian to win a GOLD MEDAL on Canadian soil. Quite a feat, and this will change Canada forever. Here is how, from Ian’s Perspective:

 Breaking the deadlock: Alexandre Bilodeau became the first Canadian to win a gold medal on home soil Photo: GETTY IMAGES

Canada’s Gold – A New Hope

Upon the occasion of Canada finally winning a gold medal on Canadian soil, I would like to take this opportunity to inform you of some changes in Canada as of this morning:

  • If you have any type of Canadian photo ID, you can visit any Bank and you will be given $5000 dollars, just for coming in.
  • Your fruits and vegetables are now fresher and bigger.
  • Everything you buy today is half-price, please tell that to the cashier upon check out.
  • There will be no more violence of any kind, except in cases involving twitter feeds from ‘the Bachelor’.
  • Those loonies you’ve been saving for laundry are now made of gold.
  • Men will no longer leave the toilet seat up and will start using their brains only when thinking.
  • Homelessness, poverty and hunger have been eradicated as of this morning.
  • Your paycheck will be double and your work week has been shortened to 3 days.
  • Nickelback broke up and will be moving to Las Vegas to become Celine Dion’s house band.
  • Your hair will always look nice.
  • Dental cavities are a thing of the past.
  • People in Toronto will never again mention the Maple Leafs.
  • Stephen Harper is now a Liberal, Jack Layton has quit politics and will be at home playing Rockband, and Michael Ignatieff will return to the United States, like we all wanted him too.
  • Tofu has a new, exciting taste.
  • Maybe I can write something different than last week’s theme… “Business in the year 2010, combining internal procedures and specific targeted sales goals to achieve improved profitability in all aspects of… I will need one more of these ‘Whatever-Chino’s’ with lots of sugar.
  • You are twice as beautiful as you were yesterday.

Rules: The rules are pretty straightforward (after all this is for fun right?) and haven’t been vetted by our legal team to avoid a monster law suit based on alleged discriminatory practices.

In the interest of fairness and to spread the wealth around, previous winners will be ineligible from winning for 1 month at which point they are free to win again. So, have fun, and guess away.
