Start Spreading the News

Hello fair citizens of New Prussia, the time is 3:30 and I am currently listening to Josh Ritter. Anyways, I went to New York last week to visit my friend and confidant Andrew. It was a blast and I have a few comments on it, but first, here is a new product.

New from the Land of the Burning Sands comes:





That’s right, Liquid Jihad, the new energy drink. So strap one on and take a shot. Remember, it’s the bomb!

Now that is done, we can move on to New York. It is a fabulous town and here are some of the highlights:

-Losing my digital camera

-Nearly getting trampled by a giant rat in the subway

-Freezing my butt of in 20-degree sleet and snow while walking in the streets of Manhattan.

-Incredibly sore legs from trying to keep up with other New Yorkers and the hyper speed walking they do.

Ok for real. It was a blast none-the-less. We did a lot of touristy stuff. Went to the improv comedy of Upright Citizens Brigade. Took a tour of NBC studios and saw Julia Louis Dryfus rehearsing as the weekly host. I also came away with more class and intelligence from touring the Metropolitan Museum. And that’s just a few of the many and wonderful things I experienced. With the improv show and the NBC tours with my love of Conan O’Brien, SNL and other sketch comedy, it was very inspirational and got me thinking again of how cool it would be to live up there and write for something like that.

Now I have to say, while in the Rockefeller Center we stopped at one of the many eateries there. Andrew chose a place called China Hunan or something Asian sounding like that. I was in shock. How could you be in that building and name your company China Hunan! Why not name the most obvious name of all: Wok-efeller. I couldn’t believe it.

It goes back to the same idea of when Andrew and I went to Gettysburg a couple years ago and we an Italian food place with some generic sounding Italian name. I then thought, why not name is Spaghettis-berg. I guess people in marketing don’t think like I do.

One other note, I decided to name my band Jefferson Car Bomb, although Czars of Clay was a really good option Andy.

All right gang, have a good day. Just tease my next entry I am going to discuss (i.e. Mock) the legendary Christian artist Thomas Kinkade. Peace.
