The Ides of March (or a profitable opportunity if Hallmark liked my ideas)

  I went to the Hallmark offices in midtown.  I showed them that I went to the internet and collected the best images in the spirit of the holiday. All they had to do was to commission their artists to make watercolors from the provided photographs and then print those on a good quality card stock.  They'd make a bundle and I only want 4% - after cost (I'm not greedy). I said, eventually once the Ides caught on, they could crowd source their content and the movement would fuel itself - they'd only have to exploit it.  
  After security escorted me out I had a troubling thought.  The behemoth of love and feeling that is the greeting card industry just might steal my idea and cut me out of the profit.  Watch for it. I'd bet everything on Hallmark using the "The apparition of Jesus in a Dog's ass," but that's just me.
