Tortilla Man LIVES!!!!

Posted on by Eric Brooks

Ya know… I should check my links more often.

Tortilla man!

Back in 2000, Richard Rubin hired me to design “Tortilla Man” (or at least that’s what I call him) and the “La Tortilla Loca” logo , and we were going to design his website next. Nicest guy you could ever work with. We lost touch shortly after that, and I assumed he never got a website done or the product out. So I put the project in my “Dead In The Water” section (Did I really write “indistry”??? JEEZ!).

Well… had I bothered to click on the link to www.latortillaloca.com in the last four years I would have known he did INDEED get a website. (And the guys at kt Webdesigns did a great job too.).

La Tortilla Loca

As Richard wrote me recently: “Eric, all is alive and well, we are selling 1,000’s of our tortilla warmers and the the logo you designed is still going strong, we are far from DEAD IN THE WATER’ as you state on your site.”

See what happens when you assume kids? LOL!

Well I think this is great news and if there’s anyone I wanted to see make a success of his ideas it was him! Congratulations Richard, and LONG LIVE TORTILLA MAN!!!! 😀
(Now I gotta move that out of Dead in the Water and make it a logo design entry.)

Here we are in another day of a 100+ degree heat wave in the Poconos, and I’m ready to tackle the day all dressed in black (like, what else is new?). Looks to me like I should get accustomed to warm temperatures, huh? 😉

That’s our -=e=-! 😀

Looking for some cool antique/garage sale items?

Posted on by Eric Brooks

Here you go, antique lovers and garage sale fans:
Raiders of the Lost Garage!

It’s a blog where they sell items they’ve acquired from garages and estates. Why surf the endless oceans of E-bay when they have their items neatly categorized right there? Go check ’em, out. Book them and add them to your blogroll… you never know what they’ll get (or what contests they’ll run) next!

MySpace is down

Posted on by Eric Brooks

HAW! HAW! What else is new?
There was a power outage in L.A. on Saturday, they’ve been under constant malicious hacker attacks (one which Tom urged everyone to upgrade their Flash Player.)

Shit happens. I’ve had sites down for days. It gets ugly! But there’s nothing you can do about it. If you ask me, they wont be back for a few days (if anything, expect intermittent service)…

So me? The opportunistic bastard that I am… I’ve decided that I am taking advantage of Technorati’s 2nd biggest search query to say one simple thing….

    The Test (OH NO!)

    Posted on by Eric Brooks

    (Too good of a joke not to share… plus I have nothing interesting to write about. -=e=-)

    Three men who were lost in the forest were captured by cannibals. The cannibal king told the prisoners that they could live if they pass a trial. The first step of the trial was to go to the forest and get ten pieces of the same kind of fruit. So all three men went separate ways to gather fruits.

    The first one came back and said to the king, “I brought ten apples.” The king then explained the trial to him. “You have to shove the fruits up your butt without any expression on your face or you’ll be eaten.”

    The first apple went in… but on the second one he winced out in pain, so he was killed.

    The second one arrived and showed the king ten berries. When the king explained the trial to him he thought to himself that this should be easy. 1…2…3…4…5…6…7…8… and on the ninth berry he burst out in laughter and was killed.

    The first guy and the second guy met in heaven. The first one asked, “Why did you laugh, you almost got away with it?”

    The second one replied, “I couldn’t help it, I saw the third guy coming with pineapples.”

    Would you like to buy a vowel?

    Another Pocono Production!

    Posted on by Eric Brooks

    Pocono Production (POH – ko -no Pruh-DUH!!! – k’shen – Noun)

    1. Something of inferior quality
    2. Half-assed
    3. Sucks fucking moose dong

    JEBUS EFFING CHRIST! What was the theme at the fireworks show, “How the soldiers in Iraq must feel”????

    Not naming names, but we were at a resort for the fireworks show and the imbeciles were firing the damn things right over our heads!!! We’re getting hit with hot shells, and running for our lives as these glowing fiery things were dropping out of the sky.

    Then the idiot in charge of the fireworks (let’s just call him “Gomer”) has the AUDACITY to come out and ask us (those not rushed to the hospital for 3rd degree burns) “How did you like the show?”.

    Well gee, Gomer… perhaps it would be better if our NICE JEWISH INJURY LAWYER gave you an honest review.

    *SIGH*

    Well at any rate….

    Happy Birthday America!
    (Except for the Poconos…. you SUCK!!!)

    Anyone want a chupacabra? CHEAP?

    Posted on by Eric Brooks

    Ernie the ChupacabraRemember Ernie, my chupacabra?

    Maybe I’m paranoid, but I think he’s trying to kill me. A few cats have vanished, and when I ask him he looks at me with his cute widdle glowing red eyes and tries to look innocent.

    But I know it’s that little bastard.
    And I think I’m next on his list.

    I just think he needs a home where he’s loved and understood, so if anyone wants him, please drop me a line. The shelters wont take him because he is not a cat or dog. And don’t worry, he was just neutered (which is part of why I suspect he is trying to kill me.).

    Serious inquiries only.
