I'd like to meet:

I would like to meet Jesus Christ, our Savior, face to face. After I feel comfortably broken in, I would like to meet God.And of course I would like meet the founder of eBay... as they have played with my emotions time and time again. I don't want to get into it too much, because I will probably cry again.Lastly, I would like to hit the speed of light, circle the earth once, come back and meet myself in the "past".

If you are hearing a song titled ONLY YOU... Ok, what you are hearing is a song that I composed about 5 years. I am playing it on the piano while recording it, so the quality isn't the best. (if you want to hear it, go to www.myspace.com/fireconsumingfirebyincineration )It is titled, "Only You". I have composed a few since then, but I have never really had the time to tie up the loose ends.
hmmm....
OK, INSTEAD OF TELLING YOU ALL WHAT JOBS I AM CURRENTLY WORKING ON, I WILL SHOW YOU...-----------------------------Friday - March 10, 2006

Today is a decent day. I have been working on Grandville High School Drama shirts.

Yes, Brandtson ordered another quick batch, so here I continue. Hopefully tonight won't be a late one.
These are the shirts that I am printing as you read this.
DOING THIS ALL TONIGHT WHILE ROCKING OUT TO SMALL BROWN BIKE and EMERY
Realized that I needed to throw in some BAYSIDEand BRANDTSON... after all, it kinda goes with the printing...
YES... LESS THAN 100 SHIRTS TO GO!ALL RIGHT FOLKS... THAT'S ALL SHE WROTE. WE ARE DONE! Want to see the equipment I use?
This is my little manual press
This one is my gigantic Automatic press, for shirt runs in excess of 1000 shirts. It can print 1100 shirts per hour. It is 21 foot in diameter!

Wanna see how it's done?
This is my little baby manual press for orders of less an one thousand shirt runs.
First, you put the shirt on the platen.
Then you pull down the screen that you want to print with.
Then you pull the ink across.
If there is an additional color, you select the second screen and print with it.
Next, you put it under a little mini dryer as you print the next shirt.
Following that, you put all the shirts through this long 20 foot dryer.
Finally, you are happy with your shirt.
SOME OF MY OTHER EQUIPMENT:
Yep, this is the first press I ever had! Wow, tiny.
Part time shop mascots. The Dog is named PIG (cause this is one loving, snorting pit-bull). The Kitty is named BAT(just cause, not like baseball, but like the thing that comes out at night to feed on prey). They both lived at my old shop for a few years, but now they are at more suitable homes, hopefully I can get them back when I get my house:(
My first and only sticker press... and I hate it.
