I got rear-ended on the way home from Dallas on Friday. Before you freak out, the Corolla is fine. My boss asked a good question though, "Could you tell if there was any damage?" and not from the perspective of "invisible" damage, more along the lines of the fact that the Corolla is pretty beat up.
My neck is a little stiff. However, I don't think I am any worse for wear really. I think my neck being stiff is probably more from having been drinking every night last week and the hangover setting in vs the accident.
As my last post stated we successfully launched the
Jaduka company. Now, we are into the thick of things, producing marketing campaigns, tweaking the sites. It seems to me honestly that we are perceivably busier now than we were a few weeks ago.
Now, about the statement about me shaving my head. I talked it over with the wife first, then I pitched it to the VP of Marketing and the President (my boss). My notion about offering up the mop on top of my head as a reward for reaching a certain number of sign-ups was inspired by two things.
The first thing is that Web 2.0 companies tend to have some sort of zany and crazy thing. Now, we have a number of irons in the fire. I don't want to leak them here just yet, in a week or so probably. Needless to say, they are pretty cool and will be viral. But not zany and crazy. The second thing is my father. While, he never shaved his head. He did have a penchant for standing on it.
I have quite a few old photos of my dad standing on his head. Normally, he would stand on his head after a particular company that had signed up to donate blood had reached their goal. And he even stood on his head at the wedding up north. That was quite a site, dad in a tux standing on his head.
Seeing as I never had stood on my head, I figure I can do the next best thing, shave it.
My hair right now is about the same length it was since right before the wedding two years ago. I haven't really had it trimmed in the last 3 months. However, this is not the longest it has ever been. The longest ever I believe was in '95, I could be very wrong about that. But, I think it was '95.
Regardless, my hair might be a fair bit longer by the time we reach the goal. I figure at least a month's more worth of growth.
Just now, I registered
www.illshavemyhead.com. I haven't set it up just yet, but I will work on it tomorrow.
The deal on the table is this. When Jaduka reaches 10,000 users I will shave my head. Note, I am not talking about Mr. Clean style. I am talking about a 1 or 2 blade on the trimmers.
At least then I will be able to wear a stylish Jaduka baseball hat.
I will even sweeten the pot a little bit. If Jaduka reaches 20,000 users by the end of December, I will shave off my goatee. Just imagine, a shaved head with no facial hair.
