**I will be participating in the WNY Home and Garden Expo at the Hamburg Fairgrounds running from February 7 th to the 10th. I won’t have any freebies or bowls of candy to toss at you but if you happen to be there and would like to stop over and buy me a beer, that’s cool. Since I don’t have the computer savvy to post up a graphic of their official webpage, I pasted the link below. I’m better at remodeling than I am with computers. Hope to see some of you there. I’ll be napping in booth # 708.** ![http://www.homegardenexpos.com/Templates/Images/WNY-Logo.png](http://www.homegardenexpos.com/Templates/Images/WNY-Logo.png) **_SHOW TIMES_** Thursday 2PM to 8PM Friday 2PM to 8PM Saturday 10AM to 8PM Sunday 11AM to 5PM ![http://i1193.photobucket.com/albums/aa354/arrowenterprises/arrowhouse-1.jpg](http://i1193.photobucket.com/albums/aa354/arrowenterprises/arrowhouse-1.jpg) ![http://i1193.photobucket.com/albums/aa354/arrowenterprises/blueprintphoto1_zps54bb637b.jpg](http://i1193.photobucket.com/albums/aa354/arrowenterprises/blueprintphoto1_zps54bb637b.jpg) [http://www.homegardenexpos.com/WNY/Default.aspx](http://www.homegardenexpos.com/WNY/Default.aspx) ---

I was hoping to get a booth up there for insurance, but I don’t think I’ll have it together. I will probably go tho and be sure to stop by! ---

Well then sir, you are in the right place at the right time. My current, almost previous agent, assigned me their commercial rep and he couldn’t find his dick if it was stapled to his mother’s ass. My new agent (friend) hooked me up with Allstate (which I swore I would never use again) and they fucked me, so let’s say if Allstate is all you can offer I might not be interested. I have needs for personal auto, home, recreational vehicle, life. Commercial I have need for general liability, worker’s comp, and auto. Please PM me and I’ll see if you can make me your first customer. ---

Awesome! I will get in contact with you after I renew my sponsor status, which should be real soon. Don’t want to make Josh mad, since we made a deal 🙂 ---

Threw this together on Sunday afternoon. Plan on running it in a loop on the laptop with an auxiliary screen. ![Explore arrowenterprises](http://rs1193.pbsrc.com/albums/aa354/arrowenterprises/OpenHouse2013_zps243361c8.mp4?w=480&h=480&fit=clip) ---

Setup went quite well, which is not a surprise as we don’t have the most stunning booth at the show. If you’d like to stop and chat, I’m in booth # 708 which is pretty much right down the main aisle as you walk in the door. I don’t have any freebees or schwag to give away but a free shot to the gut for any nyspeed members will be available throughout the show. Booth next to me is still open if Josh decides he wants to make an nyspeed presence. Hope to see you there. ![http://i1193.photobucket.com/albums/aa354/arrowenterprises/photobucket-26963-1360196793934_zps1c0444ac.jpg](http://i1193.photobucket.com/albums/aa354/arrowenterprises/photobucket-26963-1360196793934_zps1c0444ac.jpg) My graphics will be done tomorrow. Gave the print shop (Evenhouse Printing) a challenge and they’re just going to make it. ---

You need to setup a working toilet right in the open with a sign asking for volunteers… and see if anyone actually uses it 🙂 ---

Well…Thursday and Friday are done and there’s two days of my life I’ll never get back. I expected Thursday to be slow simply by nature but Friday wasn’t much better. I figure the “snowpocalypse” has some effect although I don’t think it was quite that bad. Should’ve named it the Buffalo Home and Zombie show. The few people that were there just walked around with blanked out faces trying to ignore the typical annoying booth next to me offering chances to win gift cards if you give them enough information to hassle you at dinner time a couple weeks later. I’m near the Kaz Brothers booths and the only difference between them and me was they had 2 or 3 guys picking their noses instead of just one. Hope some of you guys (and girls) have some time to stop out. Thanks to Xander for stopping yesterday and chatting. He’s in the same boat I am.
