I'm not going to apologize for yesterday's edition of the Sticker News Report.  What might have appeared to the reader as a chaotic melee was, in fact, a well oiled, combined effort on the part of the associates and staff at StickerNewz; (with the possible exception of Tom Phanderphatz.  Tom and I go way back and are best of friends so I wouldn't say anything behind his back that I wouldn't say in private to someone that he didn't even know.  We don't even do the weather here but Phanderphatz just had to have that Doppler System.  $750,000! He actually painted a fake blue screen on his office wall and hung a map of the U.S. over it. He's got one of the old, non-working RCA news cameras on a tripod on the other side of the room and actually spends all day acting like there's a front moving in from the West.  He puts stickers of rain clouds on the map usually over Nebraska and warns the folks in that "neck of the woods" to take shelter.  His dad is some sort of bigwig with HBO).

Yesterday was a big news day and this staff makes my job much more efficient in large part due to their dedication and expertise in the field of adhesive applications /broadcasting.

 Let me give you an idea of how an idea goes from its embryonic stage to the unfolding of a full blown, unadulterated idea.  The idea that ideas are just there, ripe for the picking, is just not true.  In an idealistic World that might happen - but this is real life and ideas are conceived, germinated and born. Remember Duddley Fendermen?  Well, he didn't get the IDEA!  To Duddley I say this, "That wasn't a Diamond commercial it was a DECAL commercial dumb ass".  And plus, his comments should have been confined to the 'theme song' alone.  I'm not trying to put words into people's mouths but for some odd and enigmatic reason the testimonials for Labels seem to stray from the original point to soap operatic tangents that end up nowhere near the original idea.  Tangents are fine but there's no place for them in Sticker News.

I think back to when I was a kid growing up in Cincinnati, Ohio.  A favorite Uncle of mine gave me, probably, the best analogy for dealing with tangents.  He compared a tangent to a game of golf.  He had just finished a round of golf that morning which made the analogy that much more meaningful.  I believe he said that he had shot an 84 that day and tipped the caddy five bucks. If I remember correct, the caddy's name was Quincy O'Malley.  Quincy was born and raised in the Dominican Republic and came to America as a young man in 1948 to pursue the American Dream.  He worked hard and in 1952 met and married an Irish lass Pepe' Salvitore.  Pepe' was originally from Dublin but journeyed to America in 1948 to pursue the American Dream.  She worked hard and in 1952 met and married Quincy O'Malley.  Pepe' tells the story of an old pipe fitter she knew as a child in Dublin.  Her memory is hazy in regards to his name but she thinks it was Claude Xavier Kindfasion.  Claude owned a small plumbing shop at 238 Bleeker Street on the West side of the downtown area.  He tells the story of a job he went out on one cold December night exactly nine days before Christmas in 1922. There had been a violent blizzard like snowstorm that day and pipes were frozen harder than a thoroughbred at sire time.  In many parts of Kentucky it is not uncommon to find horse ranchers who own more than 2,500 race horses.  One such horse was Kings Dynamite a sleek and pristine steed brought to Kentucky from the Middle East in 1847.  He was sold to a Kentucky rancher by an archeologist out of Qatar named Larry Fine.

What was I saying?

Anyways, I think you can see that days like yesterday are inevitable.  Bear with us and I guarantee you will receive the most up-to-date and concise Decal and Label News in the Land.

Tomorrow we'll look at the Ming Dynasty and its contribution to the development of the Sticker.  We'll journey back to some 2,400 years before the birth of Christ.

okay thanks
