"And its only Wed"

Some days be that way, and some weeks all them days are clumped together .
this has been one of them weeks, and its only Wed.
 As I fight through today, doing battle with 50 year old auto, I have to remind myself
that I choose this, and am generally happy to do so. Showing up early, saying late, 
and in here on weekends. deadlines, paper work, gov regs, cold calls from tele-marketers .
and interruptions in the battle. All of it, I still like it, some not as  much. 
 Kustom work sucks sometimes, work a bit till you reach a bind, figuratively and literally . Then back up and figure out the bind, then the work around,  start again till the next bind. Then do it all again. The results are always worth the effort .
 Now if you will pardon me I need to go back to beating my head against the wall.

Mad Props To Just Jim

Let me tell you about my buddy Super beatle JimJust Jim, or JJ .
he is one talented dude!!! He is a car guy, he owns a 69 camaro ,
lifted stepside 4X4, and a 79 convertable bug. and all are nice, but
that is just his hobby. In real life he is a defense sector graphic artist .
 I don't really know what that is , but I do have an idea of what he does
cause of a promo vid he did for the shop. 
 See we are growing a bit, and  are helping to sponsor a few shows
this season. the first one will be Bug a paluza 11 anyway... part of the deal is
the shop gets a vender space, and need draw peeps in, this is in all fact a 
temp store for the shop, so After talking with Master Gumby, the other 
owner of the shop, we decided to get a dvd made for display of the shop,
a 5 min commercial if you will. Now  Jim is a member of the vw club
and hangs out at the shop once in a while, and I was talking about this
in passing about 1 month ago, and he offered to help out and give it a try.
 well this is the result .
