Today an issue of ReadyMade Magazine came in the mail. It is special because I'm in it. Well, actually one of my ideas is in it.
A while ago, Julia from ReadyMade sent me a note about recreating my trash can smoker idea from a few years back. Sure enough, they faithfully rebuilt my design, down to even the same iron wood chip box.
Pretty impressive! I hope other people that read ReadyMade like it as well. Go grab a copy of the June/July issue now!
I had never read ReadyMade before today. After looking through the rest of the magazine, I was impressed with the amount of neat stuff. Michele, who normally handles my reading material like some sort of dull textbook, liked the magazine too.
Amazingly I got a credit as a contributor to the magazine, and I didn't do a thing besides answer my email. I even got to use my favorite photo taken by Martin.
My head swells to even greater size.

Posted by: BillB [http://squidly.com] on May 23, 2006 5:31 AMSheesh, between you, Michelle and June we live on the most famous-est two blocks in all of SPas. I always enjoy reading ReadyMade standing in the newstand at SJC airport. Now I may need to buy one. Congrats.
