Looks like doing this over my outdated iPhone isn't working so well, which is a shame, as I wanted to post some oddities.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.

I haven't posted the latest and need to catch up, but the 2 second drill is that we had supplied TechCrunch Disrupt here in NYC with some tremendous themed signage and stage props (more on that later) Anyway, earlier this morning, I was given to opportunity to interview with Sarah Lacy (TC editor at large) it was cool to say the least. I will post a copy of the vid as soon as I get a copy! Some trivia...I went on right after Ashton Kutcher who was also interviewed by Sarah and Charlie Rose.

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 ...

Here's a quick blurb I thought I would share... As far back as I can remember, I've always been drawing in one form or another, but never held on to anything. Well today, upon my return he from work, my son presented me with a little gift he made for me during his day. As you can see he is turning into quite the little artist himself! His words to me were: "um papa, I drew the Silver Surfer, Iron Man, and Spiderman for you. I suggest that you put it in a frame and hang it up". You betcha! Yes I will. In fact I will make sure of it and also make sure that he will have these great creations and memories for as long as possible! Oh and by the way, if anyone is interested... Prints to help support his college fund are available for a mere $10.00. A real steal and great investment from a great future artist! - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

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...

A little job dropped in our lap and so we jumped to the occasion. This 30" tall 3D foam sculpted duck tool all of one Sunday afternoon to put together. I'm not really sure how it will be used other than for an advertising piece. We love getting these last minute sculpts as they really keep us on our toes, so if anyone would like to challenge us and our quick abilities, bring it baby! - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone
