Alright I have found the coolest shower ever, mostly for one reason but you’ll see…

A clean undercarriage is well worth $100,000!
My friends,
You may have noticed my shameless use of internet marketing on this blog (The busted tees link to the left). I already know that many of you see me as a capitialistic pig and you would be right. But the link at the left has a altruistic reason behind it. I am raising money for charity.
The charity is called the “Tim Thorn new Mac fund.” Many of you have given freely to charities such as the human fund, the Yao Ming help-China-grow fund, the M.C. Hammer bankruptcy fund, and the save the XFL fund. Each one making steps for a better world but not as much as the Tim Thorn new Mac fund will! You gave to them, why wouldn’t you give to a much better cause (except maybe the XFL thing)?
What I am asking you to do today is to purchase a t-shirt or five from Bustedtees.com (please make sure that you click on the link below so that I get the kick back) and 12% of your purchase will be donated to the Tim Thorn new Mac fund. All proceeds will go directly to the fund and not a bit will be applied to overhead expenses or to televisions evangelists*. It all goes to the Tim Thorn new Mac fund.
In addition to helping, you will receive a funny t-shirt that all your friends at school and work will be sure to talk about! (If you don’t have any friends, please purchase anyway this may be your ticket to popularity–sure beats stinky cologne again!)
You may be asking yourself, “Hey Tim, what do you need a new Mac for?” You would be asking a great question and it has one simple answer-I want people to bow when I whip and Apple out in public. I’m buying arrogance people, it’s that simple.
In addition this blog and many other creative tidbits will be created with much more ease because of my new Mac! Don’t let me suffer with a PC one more day, this is your opportunity to save my creativity…I need you!
Thank you for your help,
Tim Thorn
President of the Tim Thorn new mac fund

So a few weeks ago we had some fun coming up with my write in vote–Bob Barker. Now I think we need to find a running mate for John McCain. What do you think? I saw a bit on Conan the other night but I think we could do much better! So here’s who I got:
1. Alf-furry, lovable a great diplomat for our alien friends
2. Dick Vitale-perfect to spruce up the same old boring McCain Speech. Just imagine this, “I will follow Bin Laden to the gates of hell if I have to.” “Yeah baaabbbbyyy!”
3. Donald Trump-this actually isn’t a bad idea and he can make up for McCain’s folical challenges
4. Tony Robbins-I can’t help but think that America needs a motivational speaker
5. A Magic bullet-Don’t ask. Seriously don’t ask.
6. The Planter’s Peanut-Just because of the cheesy presidential campaigns you could come up with. ‘You’d be nuts not to vote for McCain/Planter’s” “We’ll ‘cashew’ at the voting booth” “Break out of your shell and vote for a nut!”
That’s what I got for now…I’ll keep this going for a while. I want your ideas and please share why!
Greetings from Nashville! I am at a marketing conference in the south and I am sure enjoying myself. Gene Simmons spoke today and surprisingly he is a smart, articulate businessman. I was really impressed. He didn’t stick out his tongue or wear his costume. I’m happy I didn’t have to see that. Frankly, if I wanted to see 60 yr old men in spandex, I’d go run a marathon, do a seniors bike race, or go to the grocery store at 5:30 AM.
After his little rah-rah speech we got to stand in a line and get a picture with him (I will get a copy on here as soon as possible). Sadly I had to take the picture with co-workers because they were rushing the line a bit to get everybody a chance or else you would have got one heck of a fake smile from me and Gene.
Anyways, i will be updating you from the conference when I can and let you know of any funny situations. Oh wait, I just thought of something that drives me loco.
Do you ever get sick of people that ask questions just to ask questions? It seems like they just get up for the attention. Don’t get me wrong I have no problem with the occasional question, trust me I had plenty in 9th grade biology. But seriously the long leading questions to reconfirm what the speaker just said are obnoxious. Luckily I survived the first day without any intense Q&A’s. I’ll keep you posted on the Q&A situation…
Oh and never eat a slice of pizza followed by a little Chinese food. No matter how hungry you are–don’t do it!
You probably can’t see very well because I wasn’t supposed to take pictures (opps!) but that’s Gene speaking.
