I Wanna Rock

I've always loved Twisted Sister. These guys are pure comedy. Dee Snider and the boys did a dead-pan job of mocking serious hair bands of the mid-late 80's. "I Wanna Rock" and "We're Not Gonna Take It" are sure to bring a smile to the face of anyone who appreciates a guy with a fluffy mullet.

So, imagine my surprise when my employer, WaMu, released a commercial with "I Wanna Rock" as the soundtrack. It is further evidence to me that I'm working at the right place. How many other Fortune 100 companies would put their brand identity in the hands of high school drop-outs who wear makeup and spandex?

Jer- I miss your humor. Reading your blog reminds me of the good old Jeremy days! What do you do in Seattle? Nate said he thinks you're an attorney...is that true? Your house looks so beautiful. The trees right outside look fake! I love your style! It's so good to read about how you're doing in life...I miss you!!!
