spring breakin boogaloo

i feel obligated to explain a recent lack of posts - this video of fan adoration at a washington wizards game should explain it all.


It was McGee! - Rizzy Ref

explanation given: it was spring break for the readyandset crew!*

as we ambitiously tried to work day in and day out to try and start to provide you some in-office/at work browsing entertainment, we got sidetracked by road trips to atlantic city and to dc for a wizards game. debauchery ensued in straight sets (and apparently we also were reading dictionaries to improve our vocab - bad pun)

we still are striving for more content to include but need you, YES YOU, our loyal followers to help us brainstorm scene specific stuff of what you would like to see! so we'd like to start with a very easy brainstorming game of word association. we're going to post a phrase and then you to look around and pick 3 objects close to you and put them in context with that word. sound confusing? well, here's the phrase and 3 examples from yours truly.

Phrase: Violence in the workplace

Objects:

1. Scissors - for fencing style combat a la Errol Flynn style
2. A circle made of rolling office chairs - an arena for a battle royale
3. Post IT note pads - instant ninja star death

So you get the idea right? So get to commenting and we'll get to facilitating your great ideas! if we do use your idea, we promise to list you in credits. pinky promise.


* btw, the player featured is also Javale McGee - a Wizards rookie who's supposed to be the next Channing Frye. which might not be a good thing to be Javale McGee

Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

To all of ReadyandSet's faithful followers:

We are sorry to report that our first goal of having a comic strip/storyboard by the end of February will not be happening until late March (hopefully). The ReadyandSet team has been diligently trying to piece together our ideaphile personalities (and remember to write or record some of these ideas when not in "questionable" states of mind) and finish our undergraduate careers at our respective universities. But anyways, to be proactive and motivate our lazy asses, here's a list of some things to expect in the coming weeks:

1. First comic strip (WE PROMISE!) by end of March. with a bona-fide guest illustrator!
   
2. A peek into how our group brainstorming process works! check out our iMeem player for updates!
3. an actual logo for us? ideas are welcome!

So yeah - lofty goals eh? We don't think so - the lower our goals are, the more we won't be dissapointed later - we like to strive for mediorce-tion.

In the mean time, please enjoy an awesome clip from Flight of the Conchords - R&B style.
