While you're picking out just what to wear to the CAKE IS AWESOME PARTY tomorrow night, I thought I'd give you a couple of inside scoops on what's going on here today.
It's Zoomerang Day! This year's theme animal is the Panamanian Golden Frog. They are pretty spectacular:
It's hard to beat Mother Nature in painting! Nonetheless, Sherri is right this second hard at work airbrushing our frog to try to do them justice (with an "Ace of Cakes" camera conspicuously in front of her):
Speaking of "Ace of Cakes", it about time I introduced you to the greatest camera crew to ever be assembled. There are many, many talented folks that make the TV show happen. A lot of them we've never even met. But the ones that live and work side by side with us are some of the coolest dudes we know. Therefore, I'm starting a new weekly blog feature called "Crew Dude of the Week".
Crew Dude of the Week!
This week's crew dude is John. John is one of our two sound guys. I think his official title is "Audio Engineer". Here's his interview.
Full Name: John William Paul Poortinga
Nick Names: Johnny Cakes, Fruit Cup, Gas Hog, Lil' Kim, VTS
Hometown: Yellow Springs, Ohio
Ambitions: Money, Power and Respect!
Likes: Online shopping, sushi, velour, educated guesses, bubble baths
Dislikes: Cold water, haters, mailboxes, popped collars, the sound of styrofoam being cut
If I had more time I would: Perform science experiments on a remote island
My motto: "When in Rome, take your pants off."
Here's to John, Sensational Sound Guy and our Crew Dude of the Week!
See you tomorrow at the CAKE IS AWESOME PARTY!
