Happy New Year 2008 has Risen

Happy New Year!
It's been a busy few days, but we are now taking a little break in small town Ohio with an old friend and his family. More on that coming soon.
Louisville was a blast! After my housekeeper gig, I worked a gun show for the fellas at fastholster.com, they have this ingenius little invention, it is a magnetic strip that mounts anywhere in your home, business, or car -- you screw it in and your firearm can hang from it. This way it is out of sight - Mount it under a cabinet, behind your headboard, or high up in a closet, it is the ultimate home defense accessory. Did I mention it will never scratch your weapon?
After hawking the fast holster we got to visit the one, the only, the great Jeff Gaither, and we were allowed into his super secret studio to see where the magic happens. Jeff has been a fixture in the underground - and above ground too - art world for decades now. He's done work for The Accused, Guns & Roses, and Thge Misfits. Once you see his work, it is unmistakeable. Look for some great audio and video coming up from our visit.
We also toured Louisvilles most incredibale cemetary - Cave Hill Cemetary, it dates from before the civil war, and is the current home of fried chicken hero Colonel Sanders. We had some of the best coffee on earth at Highland Coffee - That Hair Raiser sure did the trick! And, we ate something called a Kentucky Hot Brown thanks to our beautiful hostess Kristina. Thank you!!!
We also had some pizza, okay we had a lot of pizza. Apparently, Louisville is a pizza town, so we had our own, very un-scientific pizza tasting, and the CLEAR WINNER was Clifton's on Frankfurt Ave. If you need pizza, and you are passing through Louisville that is THE spot for it! Look for a Clifton's video coming soon.
Overall, Louisville was a really great time and a great town. They are certainly on our list of maybes for a future homebase!
Also, I should mention, things have been such a whirlwind, we have not had the chance to even write about all the fun and excitment we have thus far encountered, there are videos as far back as Chicago that we just did not have the time to edit yet, and that is a shame. We are working hard to catch up on all this stuff, but between driving, and earning money, and trying to keep up with emails and editing, and podcasts and photos, and sharing 1 computer, we have had a tough time.
Thanks to everyone who has hosted us, who has fed us, and who have donated money. We thank you with our whole hearts for your help and support!
More to come....
