I assume the conversation sounded something like this:
"No, I'm sorry, Buzzy, our sign guy, will be out this weekend. He cannot make you an entry way sign for your party."
"Tell Buzzy we'll pay any amount for the sign. We have to have it."
"Let me call Buzzy."

When I got home I heard half the message before it ran out of tape. My side of conversation #2 sounded like this.
"It's Buzzy."
"A sign...No! No way!"
"What?""How much?"
"Really?""But I'm going out all night and cannot get the supplies.I can't make a good sign with what I have lying around."
"It doesn't matter and I can charge as much as I ask? As long as they know it's going to cost them a fortune."
"Money BETTER NOT be an object then."
"Buzzy Out!" (click)

The part of the message I missed was how big and how many bamboo letters the stupid thing had. "The Grand Cayman Islands Welcome You!" Shitty party's probably in the desert...

No woven mats in stock at the factory tonight. That blue paint will have to do...

I'm pissed off, exhausted, and I have a lot to do...Instead of doing this "right," I'm doing this half assed and quick. Instead of back screwing the sides onto the sign face, I just painted the drywall screws with the closest color to bamboo that I had. To do this, I just screw them into cardboard a bit and spray paint them. Look it matches! Sort of...Oh well. Hopefully it's a night party.

Since I had no supplies, I had to sacrifice a few pieces from one of my my 6' by 8' bamboo fences. Guess I'll have to charge them for the whole fence-I'll be cool though: I'll just charge them the wholesale amount.

Seminar stuff
Worked on this on Saturday: ("Worked" means I watched Benzart fix all my mistakes and cave 90% of my side for me)

This today:

Had a great time taking the weekend "off." Back to work...
