Draco, you commented on a post I made yesterday (one way below, damn I made alot)..
Anyway, I was mentioning drinking at the show. I can't recall "exact" what you said.. but something like "Nice to be able to drink on the job, even the vendors I know can't do it".
LOL.. this is a "TRUE STORY" of today, so your comment made me laugh...
I got to the show today. About 1pm I walked the 10 feet to the "beer tent" (see, I can't stop myself when it's that close..lol). Anyway, the festival is run by this group of people in this "Polish legion" (or someting like that). One of the "heads" of the festival said to me "Damn, you do awesome work!". I said "thank you" he then said.. "You shouldn't have to pay for beer". He said "Your the man", and when you want a beer, come to me....
So today, I drank about 10 free beers.. lol. No I am not gay, it doesn't mean your a fag accepting free beers from a "show promoter" (even tho he is a guy).. lol... He ran the thing, and the beer was on tap. I just got one when I wanted. Funny thing is.. the dude gave me free beer the whole day. I'm an "artist".. lol. Making "Art" and he planned to come by later to get work done. Didn't happen.. It stayed open way after dark... but we left at dark.
The other guy who ran the "arts and crafts" section, was very impressed with my work. I actually offered his son a free necklace, but his dad didn't want him to accept it. I think he felt "just cause he was the son of the promoter, he shouldn't use it to get free stuff". I understand that.
Still, everyone who ran the festival was "aware of me" as they all came over. It was "good" to me. I know for a fact I will have a "top spot" anytime they do a show.. and can get into all. I got away with more then anywhere. Bringing food in (not allowed), parking where it was restricted.. lol. I'm good at this show chit.. believe me,, lol.
The show was pretty good today. I was busy from noon-9pm (when we left). So overall was worth it.
-----------------------
I'm in this show in "Romulous" for next weekend. It's a fri-sat show only. I am not sure if we will do "Friday" (Depends on Roxann's work-if she can get off). We paid for it. Actually, we worked a great deal for that one. This guy who was next to me sells only Christian stuff (But he is a real regular guy too). He's a good talker.. and just started shows. He kinda convinced me to do this one. So we kept calling the "show promoter" on that, and even found others to share a spot with it. Anyway, lol.. this is funny. It will cost us all each about $30 each to do the show. On the promoters business property (top spot in downtown-a big Detroit suburb city).. We talked our ass "right into" that one. I was just surprised this "new show person" was so great at talking. He talked, I talked to her. And pretty soon.. we had all we wanted.. lol.

I told you I am done with the "Pirate" issue. I am just commenting because you commented on my blog. I know you (and others) think I went too far. I don't, and I believe I went out of my way to say I am "not against him". I never was. I just don't believe him. That's all. Pure and simple. It's done now tho.
Take care, Gary :)
