“Heading Out”
The Gloucester Fleet “Heading Out”
How In The World Did Yodeling Ever Become A Thing?
Will you look at this guy? Seems like a nice enough bloke right? Meet him on the street in plainclothes, love to tip one back with him.
But then you put him in the lederhosen, tights, bib, funny hat, I mean what the frick is going on over there?
It’s gotta be the Octoberfest beer, right? Just get flat out shithoused, that’s the only explanation for making a conscious decision to dress up and sing like this.
Let’s strap on the tights, get crushed and yodel. That’s what I always say.
12 hours of yodeling or 12 hours of elevator muzak- gotta pick one, which one ya got?

Bowling At Cape Ann Lanes Is a Great Time
They’re doing a great job at Cape Ann Lanes. We had a blast. Pizza, bowling, arcade games. Fun City!
Used the UDine4Less coupon, saved a bunch of money and the girls loved it.
I know Kings is the trendy spot right now but I’ve yet to be able to get in there without a 2 hour wait. We have a great bowling experience right here in Gloucester.
Check out UDne4Less for the coupon too-

Pooper Scooper
Hi Joey. While enjoying a beautiful morning at Good Harbor Beach, I came across a cool & groovy neighbor making the beach a better place. How can the beach be better you might ask? Well when it is not covered in poop it is a lovelier place for all. Jim Dowd arrived today with his son, dog, shovel & bucket.
Thank you Jim!!

See you soon!

For Those Of You Who Use Twitter a Client Other Than The Official Twitter App…
Which One Do You Use?
I use tweetcaster on my mobile devices and tweetdeck on my desktop computer. For some reason the official twitter apps hide the great “Retweet with comment” option I find so useful. For sharing stuff from the blog it lets me edit the tweet to include shoutouts to the people mentioned I the post.
My guess is that the unofficial Twitter clients provide so much more functionality that if the official twitter app offered those options it would probably tax the Twitter servers so much that it would bring down the system.
Anyway that’s my skeptical guess.

Seven Tips for Good PR Writing

There’s an unfinished conference room in the back of our office where no one ever goes. Table tops lie on their sides with no legs. Deconstructed cubicles stand against the walls, shelves and desktops assorted like giant puzzle pieces. A dry erase marker lies on the ground, never used.
It’s there in the dark that I write.
