Frozen pizza, a gallon of milk and bullets.

In case you’re wondering why I didn’t write a Howdygram post on Tuesday it’s because Ovation Creative (my graphic design business) was off the charts! In addition to wrapping up a huge website overhaul for my catering client in South Carolina, now he’s asking for a website for a second business venture with a logo, business cards and postcards. And if that’s not enough to keep me off the streets — and trust me, it is — I started a new website project this afternoon for an interior designer in Los Angeles (he needs it up and running by tomorrow), and an hour later I landed a consulting client in Georgia who wants business cards, a logo and a website.

Listen for the sound of my brain exploding by 3 o’clock this afternoon.

Thanks to Governor Rick “Einstein” Perry, Texas is once again the turd floating in America’s punch bowl. Einstein and his gun-loving legislature are rolling out the red carpet — along with a steaming pile of tax incentives — for firearm manufacturers all across America to c’mon down to Texas because Texans love you.
Perry already mailed letters to lure more than two dozen out-of-state gun and accessories manufacturers, particularly in states (i.e., Connecticut and Colorado) that are passing gun control laws. When Democratic State Senator Royce West suggested that Texas actually should be encouraging more supermarkets to open in the state because many areas don’t have any supermarkets at all, Perry’s pals responded that gun factories will naturally attract national grocery chains. Yup, that’s just what rural Texas needs most. Frozen pizza, a gallon of milk and BULLETS.

Something else to keep in mind. Governor Einstein refuses to pay for Medicaid expansion, defunded Planned Parenthood and shut down essential women’s health services. But gun makers get tax breaks. Holy crap.

I’m going back to bed now. Try not to make any noise if you decide to hang around for a while, okay?
