Five Things Kaz Disapproves Of

--1-- Hoodies...the word, not the garment. When you're with Kaz, it's a hooded sweatshirt. Unless you're looking to inspire a rant.

--2-- Nerdy guys with tattoos who are trying to use tattoos to look tough. Kaz doesn't have anything against tattoos...just that specific scenario.

--3-- Verizon. We stay with them for our cell phone service cuz we get a good deal through my work, but these guys are nickel and diming jerks. I have to agree with Kaz on this one.

--4-- Mayonnaise (including baconnaise). It's gross. And fry sauce is gross. I agree with Kaz on this one too. Much to our dismay, Idahosers seem to be obsessed with fry sauce. Sneak some mayonnaise (or baconnaise) into Kaz's sandwich and he'll react like Jimmy 'The Tulip' Tudeski from The Whole Nine Yards (you know, that one scene where Bruce Willis' character is ordering a sandwich).

--5-- Misusing I when you should say me. Example: "This is a picture of Batman and I." To be grammatically correct, this should say, "This is a picture of Batman and me." The rule is if you were to remove Batman from the sentence you would say, "This is a picture of me." Therefore, you should still use me even when Batman is in the sentence.

There you have it. Now you know how to be on your best behavior around Kaz. No talking about your "hoodie," don't show him your tattoo if you're a nerdy guy trying to look tough, don't sing the praises of Verizon, don't sneak mayonnaise (or baconnaise) onto his sandwiches, and choose your pronouns carefully.

non-stop thrill ride

Well, we're back in town with my parents. Business seems to be picking up all of a sudden which is great. We've also got some more furniture in the works.

I recently switched our work website over to full hosting services. Unfortunately, that means starting from scratch. It's infuriating relearning/remembering doing all the web editing, not that I was that good at it way back when. But, I'm having fun with it, so it's not too bad.

I'm hoping to have something back up and running at the end of the week. It'll be nice to have full hosting instead of simple domain services.

Tonight we're going to check out the play Avenue Q. I've heard a lot about it and have wanted to see it for a long time. I'm actually kind of surprised it's coming through Boise.

I'm posting some pictures of McCall and such today onto photobucket.

Deface the Trailer competition

So, ever since we bought a trailer for the company and put our company logo and info on it I've worried about someone defacing it and having to repair the lettering. It's not the prettiest thing, but it would really suck to have to spend the extra money to repair it in an already tight time for us. So, to help tackle my fears I've decided to throw it out onto the blog and ask people to do their worst.

Here's the competition: Take the images from the trailer that I have posted and use photoshop, or whatever tool you like, and deface the trailer in any way you can think of. Edit out letters to say different things, graffiti, whatever. Then resend your doctored photos to me by e-mail and I will announce a winner.

The pictures are posted here. I will be posting more today as the light yesterday was a little skewed.
