As most of you know, this past IAAPA '13 show was the first time in 15 years as members that we did not exhibit in the show, as pending projects and overlapping deadlines did not allow us to set aside any time to build a booth this year (we change our booth design every year.  Check them out here ).  As all of you know, the IAAPA show is very important to us and so while we could not exhibit, we decided to walk the show, not only as a buyer for a current project, but view it through an attendees eyes.  Something that I have always tried to do while exhibiting, but never had the chance as working our booth requires all hands on deck.  My experience as an attendee/buyer was amazing!  But I still had the blood of an exhibitor flowing through my veins.  So walking down the isles I was so shocked to see a number of things that exhibitors were both doing and not doing, that I thought I would share those findings with our community.  I invite you to rea...

Welcome, to the newest black light miniature golf course in Jacksonville Fl.: Krazie Golf's "The Island of Dr. More Glow"! Installed at Cassat's Family Fun Center and Bowling Center , this 18 hole, 5,000 sq ft course is Krazie Cool and packed full of props and hand painted glow in the dark murals! Your adventure begins with a relaxing sailboat ride but quickly you are thrown off course and land on an apparently deserted island. With no way off the island, you make your way through a forest and series of spider webs, and come upon the castle of the mysterious Dr. Glow. Having heard tales of his madcapped creations, you decide to enter the castle and investigate, only to find out that one of Dr. Glow’s Krazie Robot experiments has escaped. Dr. Glow dares you to give chase through the Vortex transporter, where you will eventually face off with the Krazie Robot. Follow it into the big city, scale up a building onto the rooftop, where a hole in one sends it crash...

Looks like doing this over my outdated iPhone isn't working so well, which is a shame, as I wanted to post some oddities.  So,  I will update the blog later this evening when I finally get home and have a glass of home made wine.  Sorry folks.  I seem to be stuck in a web!   (web actually part of our current black light minigolf project "Isle of Dr. More Glow"  Installing next week at Cassat's Batt Bowl in Jacksonville FL.

Like a shot heard 'round the world, the news is all a flutter about the recent death of Osama Bin Laden.  But now of course the conspiracy theories start.  Did they really kill him?  Why didn't they produce the body like they did with Hussein? Who are we to believe?  Well... doubt no longer.., "We" have the proof!  That's right:  WE:  www.Themendous.com have Osama Bin Laden's Head! And now it can be yours for a meer cost available only via ebay!   Item# 180662096945 That's right... we are capitalizing on the death of this notorious and now dead terrorist and why not?  He put thousands of industries into economic hardship.  Killed bread winners and not to mention almost put us out of business back in 2001.  So now, it's our turn to take this opportunity to re-coup on our financial losses.  I would imagine that there are already T-shirt designers in production since late last night busy kicking out some funny Osama sayings ...

I've always found myself to be a creative person, able to come up with funny, off the cuff, some times dark comedic scenarios towards the promotion of things in general.  I remember a grammar school contest where we were asked to come up with an ad for Tropicana orange juice (why exactly, I don't know), but I drew a carton of orange juice next to a glass and some school books, and wrote the slogan: "Juice...it's great before a test"  In my opinion it was the better of the submissions but I did not win because "I didn't specify what KIND of test"   I remember thinking "Seriously? ... a test ...  ANY TEST" DUH!    Today, as a business owner in the very demanding field of amusement park and family fun center theming and attractions, I constantly find myself re living my grammar school advertising contest day, in my need to convey our products and services. Maybe I never would have been the great advertising executive I once thought I would be...
