Title: PLA book's first edition stamp

Now that I'm done stamping the first 100 copies of the PLA book with numbers, exactly how should I destroy this stamp?  I must do it quickly so it doesn't fall into the wrong hands and cause a huge PLA book counterfeiting ring.  Fire?  Jigsaw? Lava?  However it's destroyed, I will film it and put it on YouTube.

Get a cheap thrift-store blender and play "will it blend?"

Thwack it with a SLEDGE HAMMER while singing the Peter Gabriel song.

Wedge it under a tire of a parked telco truck and let it get squished as it leaves.  Bonus points if you ask the telco guy's permission and he squashes it willingly.

I really like this idea.  Unless someone comes up with something better, I think this is what's going to happen.  And as a bonus, I can pick up the pieces and do "will it blend" or something else to it!  Maybe I can borrow Evie's lab coat for that part.

Wait, what about the stamp that you did the numbers with? You're gonna destroy that one too right?

I kept that, but it's in a vault with an armed guard. 

Also, WILL IT BLEND!

Did you buy it at a thrift store? I like shopping at the thrift store. One time I got a slightly outdated copy of Newton's Telecom Dictionary, where I learned terms like FDL: Facility Data Link.

Also, how much did your blender cost?

I got the blender from Goodwill for $7.99.  I had planned to return it the next day, but the ink destroyed it and the blade came loose.  I've also got ink on the bottom of many of my socks, I guess because of flakes of ink stamp stuff that flew into the carpet.
