Wizznutzz going on a road trip for a few days. We've got a sitter for ken (we cant board him because of his kennel cough! ) and we have cured the travel meats and made a JAHIDI WHITE MIXTAPE for the road!!!
On our way out the door we see an email from Mike Seely about his awesome article in the Seattle Weekly about former Washington Bullet legend Joe Pace!!!
Thats Joe below. He has Marion Barry's tailor!!!
It is true tale with the poignancy of a midsummer moomintroll about how Joe Pace fell on hard timez after leaving the bullets, falling into drugs and homlessness and pawning his '78 championship ring and losing teeth in the mexican paint.
But it is also an inspiring story of courage and comeback.
Not even in Hollyowwd could you write a story like this! (But if Hollywood did, I know an actor whos between projects!!)
Its a story of edutainment, passing gas, Mitch Kupchak's hand-me-down clothes, and building robots!
Just like the wizznutzz story if you think about it!!!!!
We have edutainment and gas! We have a robot except our robot isnt allowed to talk with children, and we have second hand clothes of a Bullets player. 3 years ago we heard Phil Wood on the radio saying "gameworns are a solid investment" so we scooped up all the Greg Ballard gameworns on the market but we found out $300 and an angry UPS man later: Phil was talking about gameworn Jerseys and SHorts, not underpants!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ANyway in a time when cashed up athletes causing nothing but grief it is awesome to find one with no cash not even a home who is helping take grief out of the world. If having good soul is old skool, then hand me the Chuck Taylors!!!
So JOE PACE is our hero and we are happy to see him doing well. And he is a tru warior and tru genius building his kinetic edutainment robotrons, his street art motiviational animatronics, it is like if Jean Michel Basquiat ran a chucky cheese franchise!!!!
(What is "ANIMATRONICS" you ask?? It is something not alive that moves and acts like its alive. Like Phil Chenier !!! we love u phil!!!)
Pleaze pleaze pleaze donate to Joe Paces foundation:
We are going to commission Joe to make a robot to keep the Gar Heard robot company.! The GarBot is soooo lonely. Talk to him! He has new angry words!!!
