Threat Level: Midnight

I just finished this drawing for Sarah last night. I started it a couple weeks back when I was taking a break from freelance. It looks like John Krasinski if he was a muppet. I have to say I’m a fan of this drawing.

Madsen Cargo Bike

This doesn’t really have to do with anything. I just want to win this bike for Sarah. Just click on the link below to help me out. Basically Madsen Cycles are giving away two of these bikes through July 15th. The first one will be given to the owner of a randomly chosen site that has linked to them through July 15th. The second bike will be given away via a random drawing of top 20 sites that sent traffic to them. So click on Clickies. I can totally see Sarah digging this bike.

MY BIRTHDAY!

You know I usually don’t care for my birthday all that much but this year was amazing! Sarah did a wonderful job putting the bbq together and giving me an awesome birthday week. Thanks to everybody who came over. It was so much fun. You can find pictures from the bbq here. Man so much fun times. And you know what else is awesome? Sarah got me a print of this. How awesome is that. God I love that girl!

Oh and many thanks to Levi for putting the sweet illustration together for the flyer.

Seven months in the making and it’s finally finished. BBased.com went live. BroadBased is a great place to work and now it shows with a great website. Check it out.

It’s been awhile since I’ve updated…

So yeah I apologize about that, but a lot of things have been happening. Good things so that’s good. But that being said, I have a lot to post about. But I think I’m going to do a whole bunch of posts instead of one big one. The reason is because just like I haven’t been able to post in awhile because I’ve been busy, same goes for tonight. I am going to post everything that is on my list, but I am going to do a whole bunch of little tiny posts. So without further adieu…

Two weekends ago was the World Beard and Mustache Championships!

I really wish I was able to go to that. It looked like so much fun. This year they were held in Anchorage, Alaska. That’s awesome. But even though I was not able to go, two members of The Jacksonville Beardsmith Society, Sam and Devon went and represented our humble club. That’s them in the photo above wearing our awesome t-shirts. Not only that, but they both placed. Devon got second place in the Freestyle Mustache category and Sam got third place in the English Mustache category. That is fantastic! So wish I would have been there. Ah well, next time. The next championships will be held in Trondheim, Norway in 2011. That is going to be amazing. Anyway, enjoy some photos of our local champions below. You can find more information and photos about the world championships here and here and here and here and here.
