Crawford Long Fireworks!!!

Wednesday, November 28th, 2007

On Monday, I gave Rick a hand with the fireworks over at Crawford Long Hosiptal for their Christmas Tree ceremony. We basically did a 5 minute show in under 3 minutes at the clients request. (It was cold and they brought the kids outside to watch the show and Tree Lighting) It was a really a good show. I didn’t take many shots with my iphone, but I did get this one that I like:

Turkey Time!!!

Friday, November 23rd, 2007

I have now recovered from my food coma.. Let me tell you it was good :) This year, my Grandfather, my Aunt and Uncle and one of their sons with his wife and baby came over. Its been a fun time. I managed to snap a couple of pics on Turkey Day. Lets start with a good one Chris:

Yep thats my bro Chris, I’ve got no clue what is going on here.

That one was of my cousin’s daughter. She has been a blast. Chris and Anne are keeping her quite entertained.

Now for the important pictures:

Cutting the Turkey

And that is what the turkey looks like after dad is done with it…

Thats pretty much all the pics that I took. But needless to say the meal was good and everyone ate their fill. Props to mom for cooking a great meal..

The Sema Show

Friday, November 16th, 2007

I don’t have allot of pics from Sema because I was to busy working. But let me tell you. It was huge. There were over 3 million square feet of show floor. I don’t think that even counted the huge lot outside that had to have another 500,000 square feet at least. It was quite impressive.

Just to show how crazy busy we were, here is a pic of joey trying to get some work done in a moment of free time. This pic was actually taken in the DUB booth between 2 cars. Yes it was that crazy.

Here is a generic shot of the show. If I recall this was the wheel and Tire Hall. I actually only made it over here once of twice but shows some of the people that were there.

Thats pretty much my show coverage.

Strolling around Vegas

Friday, November 16th, 2007

One of the only other days that I managed to get out on the strip I managed to snap a couple of photos:

The Bellagio Las Vegas

Paris Las Vegas

This last photo was not taken on the strip this was taken from out room at the Sahara.

After taking these pics I went back to our condo to get some more work done. While I was away my friend Brady managed to get himself married to a girl that he had met, litteraly 15 hours earlier. ( Ok they didn’t actually get married bust that was only be because after the whole Brittany Spears marriage crap, they changed the laws in Las Vegas so that you can only get Married between the time of 8am and 11:59pm. Brady and Jessica showed up to the wedding chappel of love at 12:30. So they missed getting married by 30 Minutes. Stupid Brittany Spears. For pics of that night see Cody Wellons pics here )

Sema 2007: GM Party

Friday, November 9th, 2007

After rolling into vegas on Sunday Night, we spent Monday with clients figuring about what was going to take place during the week. After that we rolled over the the GM party at the Wynn. In my opinion this was the best party at Sema. (and it just so happens to be the only one that I actually made it to) The party was open bar open dinner which was awesome. After mingleing with people and eating and drinking to are harts content we went to the GM After Party. During this after party 50 Cent unveiled his new car:

50 Cents New Car

In my humble opinion this car was way more sick that 50 Cents:

It just looks mean.. I love it. Where can I pick up one of those?

One of the highlights of this party was watching the cocktail servers work the party. I’m pretty sure that these servers were actually hookers, this is Vegas after all. I have some photo evidence of this:

Fortune with hooker

Montye and Hookers

I mean why would these girls hang out with both Montye and Warren if they were not hookers? Plus both of these girls were just a little to free with giving out theoir phone numbers for my taste.. But whatever its Vegas.

Driving To Vegas

Saturday, November 3rd, 2007

Yup this is a blog all about driving to vegas. I don’t know why I’m really making this blog right now, but I am so enjoy.

Death Valley

Middle of Nowhere

Middle of Nowhere

That was the most interesting part of the drive. That really shows how interesting that drive was….

Just Drift - Drifting Madness

Saturday, November 3rd, 2007

After rolling out at myspace we made our way out the the desert to prepare for the Just Drift Finals.. That shit was rad. This track was in the middle of nowhere… and I really mean that. But aside from that the drifting was stellar. I’ve never seen a course so killer that was not on the streets somewhere. I really wish we had made it to this place for Slide America. For a sample of what happened go check out the coverage in the wreckedmagazine.com blog.

Here is a preview of what was out at the track:

Cali - Back Again

Saturday, November 3rd, 2007

Well it was only 2 weeks. But I’m back again. After landing and dealing with the airport bs we finally got a rental car with sweet navigation.

Navigation

If you ever get a rental car from hertz. Don’t count on the navigation. This thing really sucks. I almost got us lost some many times its not really funny. We would have been better off without it.

While rolling around this was one of the greatest signs that I have seen during the trip thus far:

No that is not a photoshop. Its really an for a new credit score. I love cali.

After rolling over to pick joey up some new shoes, we went to grab some eats with Jacob and then rolled over to myspace.com

myspace office

I was hanging out in the noc, when I noticed these pics:

scale

These images really tell the true story about how bad the the errors are at myspace, even they joke around about how bad the errors are. But its all in good fun I had a blast hanging out at myspace. I even saw Tom while I was there. I’m pretty sure he was hard at working trying to fix myspace. Go Tom!!!
