and she mentioned she was looking for a job, we exchanged linked- In info and

went our own way. 

While I was  on Linked- In I noticed someone I knew was looking for an employee so

I linked them together for an interview. I am not sure if she got the job but to thank me she sent

me a care package of condoms. Lots and lots of condoms one box of every type I never heard of.

Color, flavored, ribbed and more. Condoms galore.

Donna opens the boxes when they come in at the office and I heard a scream and she

tossed the box to me as though I had ordered them on line and she accidentally opened it.

The friend I connected works at Ansell. Ansell makes several proudcts including Lifestyle Condoms.

Thank you for the 6 million condom as a thank you gift.  The girls in the office got a real kick out of it.

Everyone got to pick a box out to take home, some were sent to college and one box

was kept in the bottom drawer, just for fun.

How do you pick the team you root for?

If you are like my kids you inherent your love of  a team from a parent. You see their father is an owner of The Packers and wants to be buried at Lambeau field therefore the Children are now big Green Bay Packer fans. Yes we own a cheese head.

Other ways you become a Fan is by living in a city or state and become a fan oF the team that wins the most. I am sure there as many ways to be a become a fan as there are fans. As for me, I have a very special formula.  Here is an example . Ok Ravens vs Texas And I did not have a clear favorite but this was easy.

ANW Produces  the Raven bandanas that were passed out at the game . My formula I am a fan of the team that I produce merchandise for.

So sorry to my family on their loss.

The Pack was beaten by the Giants . Maybe we could do Packer Merch and it would bring them better luck too.

Since I first posted about the flying T-shirts I attended a game and guess what?  Hal caught a shirt and I got to keep it. 

Really exciting stuff.  It was flying straight at me but I had my camera in my hand and I yelled

‘”get it bet it”  It is was like I was diving after a million dollar bill.

During breaks and intermission  at NJ Nets games, sexy group of  young strong armed men and woman and a large gun roll out on the court.

Or I should say jump out on the court and powered by rock music  and  toss T-shirts

to cheering  fans.   Sounds mamby bamby until you see it and realize they are THROWING ( like a

football ) into the far rafters.  The T-Shirt throwers could be drafted in the NFL as a spot on quarter

back. I have never seen anything like that. So if you sit int he nosebleed section you might catch a T-Shirt that is

thrown all the way from the baseline! .  Pow! Bang!  In the pix is  Hal Narotzky and my son’s college roomate, Andy.

ANW provides bags for Westfield Downtown Holiday Free Parking promotion

Holiday is over and now once again we have to pay for parking to shop

in downtown Westfield. Westfield is a darn charming village with up

scale shopping and 2  parking lots and on-Street parking so this is a

huge bonus provided by Westfield Downtown. Of course that does not

mean you will find a spot only that it will be free when you do for  the

two weeks prior to Christmas. Each meter is covered with a red bag that

tells the driver  that yeah they got a free spot.

The thing is if you took the bag off of the meter you would have a

traditional drawstring bag (Nike Style) .  It wasn’t easy figuring out

how to print upside down, size of the bag and how to wrap it but Donna

in my office armed with a tape measure and some brains did

the figuring,  It got more complicated when we had to cover the

monstrous pay stations in the lot as well.

Huge and red and covered.  Free Parking for those wonderful two weeks

and ANW provided the water resistant, snow resistant meter cover

in bright holiday red.  Is that in our catalog? I dare say not. Just shows

you how we can make anything even something that is a gift for

Parallel parkers.

My first blog EVER and of course my computer crashed right after

the word “ever.”  Here I am again 5 days later.

Why is it when I start being creative my computer crashes,

the toilet over flows or some emergency happens to stop the flow

of creativity? ( not toilet flow please)

I have a feeling it is like the acting lessons

that I took several years ago. You have to get the juices flowing and

you will put stumbling blocks in your way until you feel comfortable to

let it all hang out.  So blocks away and creativity alert I am awake

again.

I built ANW with an eye toward that untouchable spark of different,

that close your eyes and what do you see mental picture. Join me

on my blog journey while I show you ( scarry as it might be) how

an old ham let’s those juices flow again.
