Jimmy does not want to exist on-line. But you see sometimes you don’t really get a choice. He won’t get a facebook or a myspace.

Many years ago, on a day very much like today a little girls life changed…this epiphany occured in the windy city of Chicago when Marlene had her first raspado.

The heaven’s shown upon her in this moment of time she pondered the meaning of her life in terms of this delicious flavored ice. She thought of the opportunities she could have, she thought of all the places she’d travel to peddling her snow cones for the world to enjoy.  But she realized sno-cone representatives were a dime a dozen. She needed another marketable aspect, and took to the practice of fortune telling.

She spent her childhood mixing new exotic flavors for her adoring flavored ice public and learning tarot cards… imagining how much they would enjoy mango-lemonade raspado while getting their palms read. She could see the day when all the traffic in the state of Illinois could be soothed if everyone just had access to her wonder-ice, and affordable knowledge of future traffic events.

She also knew the best way to share her delicious treats with the world was to get good publicity. Marlene then wrote a letter to the savior of Illinois… Oprah Winfrey. Ms. Winfrey stunned by the business savvy of the young Marlene decided to put her on her show and display a young entrepreneur/entertainer.  She was booked to be on the show and then the unthinkable happened, she was bumped due to the length of time Oprah shared the screen with talented poodles  who could also mow a lawn.

Distraught Marlene dashed to the streets where a slow moving churro cart was chugging across town. This young psyhcic could have never seen what was going to happen… there was a crash… and suddenly churros and ice filled the streets.

Marlene never recovered from this flavorful disaster, so she became interested in speech patterns of whales. She is currently thought to be teaching the whales to tell fortunes…

your endeavors of raspado dealing as well as traveling psychic will always be remembered.

Many years ago there was a little Eric that was fated to become the voice of our generation… until he met video games.

As a young child Eric would roam the streets with his dog earred copy of So you want to be President?sharing with anyone that would listen to him about his political platforms such as … candies for everyone, tropical shirt Tuesdays, and universal kittens.

 

 

 

 

 (he really owns this book, except his version is highlighted, and has notes and post-ts all over it)

FUN FACT! his favorite helpful hint is #46 answer questions with more questions…

 

 

This however all changed one night whilst playing F22 Interceptor. Eric realized that  playing video games was much more fun than his history and government homework. His interest in the presidency wained as he continued to play with the television screen glowing deep into the night.  At the age of 12 after eating at the Red Lobster he decided he would much prefer to be a lobster whisperer…

And when that didn’t pan out the way he had hoped for…

…he decided on industrial technology.

This is the future Eric could have had if he had become a politician…

(note his tropical shirt and lobster awareness button)

 

this would have been his campaign… (as you can see he’s been teased about this before)

take your “Change” actual president Obama… Eric would have brought the people of the United States “Good Times”

 

Things could have been so different.

Things could have been so different.
