One From The Road

Hey everybody,
I’m doing some house…er, hotel room cleaning, and figured I’d offer these up to you, my faithful readers, before I end up going the eBay route. Anyway, now that I’ve got the new toolbox, I have an Anvil ATA briefcase in pretty good condition that I’m looking to sell. I got it new for $90, if you’re interested, make an offer! E-mail Andy@OneFromTheRoad.com with the subject “Garage Sale”.

Just caught wind of this article in today’s USA Today:

For those keeping count, we’re now on the second redesign of the site. I was having some issues with the small fonts that the old template used for the posts and especially the comments, and couldn’t get it to resize nicely, plus I didn’t like the really narrow box it shoved the posts into. So, let’s try this one.

Just a quick post to call attention to the fact that I now have a prettier design for the blog, including a new logo. I’m still open to other suggestions, but for now, this beats the pants off the old bland template.

I’ve been coming down with some sort of cold or some other nastiness that I caught from two of the other crew members, and am doing a split-week this week, so it may be a day or two before I get to the promised updates, but I do have those reviews, an updated links listing, and some other stuff coming as soon as I find time and don’t feel entirely crappy.

A quick follow-up on my post about Honest Tea. Right before I made that post last night, I e-mailed Honest Tea to ask if they could point me to any other mail order sources for the plastic bottles of their teas. Imagine my surprise this morning when I found an e-mail from none other than the company’s president and “Tea-EO”, Seth Goldman, waiting in my inbox. Seth did one better than providing me with another mail order source–he told me that Target is now starting to stock the plastic bottles in all their stores! They may not be in store just yet, but they’ve been sent to the distribution centers, so they should be soon. Next time you’re in Target, be sure to check ‘em out! And, if you like what you taste as much as I do, be sure to drop Seth and Barry and e-mail and tell them, ‘cuz these are two kickass guys.

Yeah, I know, I’m starting off with three posts, none of which have anything to do with theatre toys or tools or stories. Those are coming soon enough, but first, some variety.

As those who know me well know, I”m a bit of an iced tea fiend. I love the stuff. For some guys it’s coffee, but my caffeine-fix has always been tea. Recently, I’ve become hooked on a few different flavors from an awesome little company called Honest Tea. They make all organic teas, ranging from barely sweetened to slightly sweetened, and the ones that are sweetened all use real sugar and honey and such, none of that awful corn syrup junk. Who’d've thunk, bottle iced tea that actually tastes like tea?!
