We want to show everyone the evolution of the PigSpigot logo, which is awesome and drawn by the amazing Eric Lister. This is the first of (at least) three parts.

Way back in the day, Eric sent a few pigs our way. Little did we know that our adorable pig logo would someday evolve from these beautiful and extravagant grotesqueries.

Guess what’s right around the corner? St. Patrick’s Day! It’s been one of our family’s favorite holidays ever since our Irish ancestor Finnegan McSpigot came over in the great swine migration of the 1880s. Every year, we drink fermented corn juice and dye the trough water green to mark the day when our arch-enemies – the snakes – were driven from our fatherland. Just remember to take it easy on the imbibery; the last thing you want is to have to spend your evening praying to a porcelain (or porcine!) deity.

the dudeNewsworthy Cards!

Having grown up as Little Lebowski Bacon Achievers, we were particularly tickled to see our favorite actor Jeff Bridges finally get the award he so richly deserves. The Dude abides. Or as Walter might say, “I can get you an Oscar by 3 o’clock this afternoon. With nail polish.”

Like your celebs with a little more ‘Paparazzi’? Try sending this ‘Poker Face’ card to a loved one instead.

Twitter CatTweeting Cards!

We are proud to be the web’s only provider of Tweeting Cards. You can take any card from our library, personalize it, and Tweet it out to your followers or the rest of the Twitterati. But why Tweet just any card when we’ve got a whole host of Twitter-themed cards for you to choose from. Spread a meme with this Happy Tweeting Card Tuesday card. Flirt using this “You’ve got me Twitterpated” card.  Catch up with a lost friend using this “Missed Tweet” card. And engage in some bird-bashing on behalf of a dumped friend by Tweeting out this card.

That’s it for this week, folks!

Remember: PigSpigot makes it easier for you to send better cards.

Enjoy the incoming spring…

See you around the sty,

The Pig
