From 2005 to 2009, I was the copywriter for the X-treme Geek retail catalog while it was
owned by E-filliate, Inc. While a whole lot of my copy never saw print (editors: do we love
'em or what?), I managed to preserve some of my favorites, completely unadulterated, for display
here. Most of these items are no longer for sale, so some of the pictuers will not be available.
I apologize for any mysterious confusion.

COPY=================
HEADING-
Heading Copy: Cubicle Life Just Got a Lot Smaller!
Alt Heading 1: Build Your own Corporate Labyrinth One Cube at a Time!
Alt Heading 2: Move over Sims! Here come The Cubes!
BULLETS-
Basic sets (Bob, Joe, Ted, Ann) include:
1 One comfortably numb 2 3/4" poseable figure
2 Four sterile walls, a desk, chair and file cabinet
3 Computer, phone, in/out box
4 Sticker sheet of décor with charts, computer screens and pithy office posters
5 Job title sticker sheet so you can create your own meaningless titles
BODY-
[for four basic sets]
You may never get a window office, but you don't have to suffer alone! Now you can boss around The Cubes, complacent little drones who come complete with their tedious four-walled environments. Each set includes everything you need to imprison your Cube into a sterile cell of uninspiring monotony. Dish out your own convoluted job titles with the sticker sheet of human resource labels. And unlike real-world cube dwellers, The Cubes won't complain, quit or steal your stapler. (But you might catch them playing Solitare.)
[for expansion set] Human Resources has just dumped four new recruits on you: Sue, Jan, Jim and Dan are anxious to start and eager to please. Includes nine plastic accessories including a cell phone, calculator, laptop and other office essentials.
ADDITIONAL ITEMS NEEDED? i.e. batteries, adapters, cables, etc
