Inventory Page has been killed

by gayouj on Apr.27, 2010, under News

I scrapped the inventory page (it was the one that showed my inventory of cigar boxes).  One, it was way out of date because it’s a pain in the ass to keep up with and, two, my customers rarely ever refer to it anyway.  If there were a bunch of people using the page I’d go to the trouble to keep it up but I’m not going to go through the hassle if it’s not helping anyone.

If you would like to see what I have in stock as far as boxes are concerned, go ahead and contact me directly and I’ll set you up.

The American Education System

by gayouj on Apr.24, 2010, under News

Hey, guys.  I’ve never asked any of you for a favor but I am tonight.  If you are a parent with a kid in school, are in school yourself, or if you are a teacher or in any way involved with the school system, I’m asking that you go to the following link and have a read:

http://geoffreygreer.wordpress.com/2010/03/13/end-totalitarian-teac…

This article at the link is not asking for money, it is not asking for clicks, and there is no advertising or anything behind it.  It is the candid, honest sharing of information about what the deal is with our school system today.  It’s a real eye-opener and it has the potential to change a lot of your views about everything.  At the very least, just do me, Josh Gayou (Smokehouse Guitars), a personal favor and read about two or three paragraphs.  Give it that much of a chance and see if you don’t feel compelled to read the whole damned thing.

I figure if enough people read this, if enough people spread it around, things might just start to change.  I don’t hold out hope since I’m a realist, but it can’t hurt to try.

Thanks all for your patience.

MojoBone Works Slides Are Not Currently Available

by gayouj on Apr.19, 2010, under News

Hey all.  My buddy Randy has asked that I take down the MojoBone Works slides pages of my site indefinitely so that he can devote his full attention to some other matters.  Just about all of us in the CBG movement do this as an on-the-side type of thing and are well aware that this will happen from time to time.  If and when Randy gets back into the swing of things I will get his products back up here at Smokehouse Guitars.  Until then, please don’t pester him by asking when he’ll start making slides again or if he can just make an exception.  He’s a busy dude and has stuff he just needs to handle.  Let’s all just with him the best and hope that he’ll be able to come back to doing what he does in the future.  Speaking for the entire community, a world without MojoBone Works custom slides is a little bit less cool indeed.
