Captain Jack? Suggestions for things to do if one's plans should fall through tonight. Creativity encouraged.
Get some construction paper, some puff paint, some stickers, some foam letters, some glue, and some crayons, and make greeting cards for all your favorite bunnies. Post them to flickr.
Go to the top of the highest mountain/tree/building/mesa and shout my name three times, and you will see a sign. Proceed to a restaurant of your choice, order whatever you like, and await instructions.

Sometimes I think I do hear instructions at this point, depending on what I ordered. For instance, if I ordered a couple of Makers Manhattans, I often hear the instruction that I should strike up a conversation with the people next to me. Sometimes this ends well, sometimes it's not a good dea.
If you like, you can skip the mountain/tree/building/mesa part and shout my name three times in the restaurant. Then you won't have to worry about anyone sitting next to you.
and....they fell through. Did I call that one, or what? I'm going on the Hugh plan, minus the shouting of his name. There are other ways to get to my special island.
You could take an arbitrary large number like 1323272093.43, multiply it by the first 6 digits of pi, round up for an integer, format the result as a telephone number, and then call to see if anyone answers it.
