I had the opportunity to help some friends work on a new restaurant/pub that they are hoping to open in the not too distant future. It’ll be a Micro-Brew type pub feel with good eats and great drinks, They’ll be brewing their own beer thats very tasty. It is located in the small quiet community just across a bridge from downtown Bremerton called Manette. These friends have another eatery called Fritz Fry House, and there they deep fry pretty much anything and have some amazing in house fry dipping sauces. Follow the link to their site and check out the menu. It’s located at the Bremerton ferry terminal, so if you are in the seattle area hop on the ferry and check it out. You will not be disappointed. I promise.
But back to the new place and the reason I started this. The Bar. This has to be the coolest looking bar I have ever seen. It is made of Bubinga wood. It is also known as African Rose Wood. I was struck by the character in this wood. It’s mesmerizing. Unfortunately for you the pictures I took were not in the best light since the place is still under construction, but I think it conveys the idea of what I saw. I’ll try to head over there with my good camera and get a better pic.
It even looks good with beer on it.
As you have probably noticed, The Legendary Boys of Floyd have been doing a lot of work on the site. Adding new coolness (have you found the rascal? modeled after our father), cleaning up a bit, joining the social network. That’s right, we are tweeting! Follow us as we divulge the inner workings, pull back the curtains a bit, take a peek at the wizard!
Keep drinkin’ your coffee! I know I am!
Well if you haven’t noticed, it’s time you did. We have some great products and hope to add more in the coming months. But for now we have our first book, ‘My Underwear Creeps Like Indigenous Vines’. It’s a great collection of our work over the last year or so. And it will make a great gift for Valentines day. Chicks dig this stuff. I’m tellin’ you, a small box of chocolates mixed with a a big book full of laughs will make a huge deposit in the love bank. And Ladies, what guy wouldn’t be putty in your in your hands with this magnificent creation.
We also have a small selection of mugs and shirts. We have 2 different shirt designs to choose from but my personal favorite is the “Oh I’m Funny…” shirt. No mater what kind of jokes you tell this shirt fits the bill.
And our mugs are oh so classic. The kind grandma would love, or maybe for boss’s day, or that special someone that thinks they have everything… this proves that they don’t have it all. And even rich people need to drink coffee in something.
There’s also a few more designs than I’ve put up here. And check back often as more are coming in the future. If you have a design idea of some characters you’d like to see, drop us a note.
If you haven’t heard yet, Apple just announced a new tablet device called iPad. We here at the Legendary Boys of Floyd have been following this story closely. Now we have not had our hands on one yet nor have we seen one in person, but we still want one.
We have been following the coverage from the live media event at the Yerba Buena Center via Gizmodo and Engadet, both have pretty stellar coverage. They have announced that iPad will run most existing apps for the iPhone with modified apps coming from developers soon.
They are also partnering with major book publishers to deliver content to the device in a service called iBooks.
There are so many features and so much functionality that I’m having trouble wrapping my head around it all. You have really got ot take a look at this thing.
Pricing is $499, $599, $699 for the base Wifi models of 16, 32, and 64 gigs. And if you want to have 3G connection that is $130 more. But you don’t need a contract to have the 3G. It’s pay as you go.
There are more pictures and video over at Apple.
If you haven’t figured it out, we are in the middle of a site refresh. This has been 6 months in the making. Ok not really 6 months of work, just mostly talking and telling jokes. But now we are tweaking the last bits of the site to get them just right. So please don’t mind the mess. We’ll get this place cleaned up as soon as we can. In the mean time, if you find something that isn’t working right drop us a note. We might already know about it, but we also might not.
Thanks for your patience!
