hey guys,

a while ago i decided to get more serious with my glass business and started putting together a catalog of prodo pipes and stuff. i sent it out to a bunch of stores and ended up getting a good number of orders but was ultimately unable to keep it going. one of the problems is i am just too slow to be a full time prodo guy...i was watching my expenses/debt grow all the time and just not making enough glass to cover it all. also i'm kinda lazy :D

anyways, i'm in the process of selling all my shit and not really sure what i'll do after. ill have a bit of extra cash and i thought it might be fun to take a bus somewhere and hang out for a while to broaden my horizons. anyone up for a visitor??

im not looking for a job....just to meet some new people, and see new things. id be happy to make a bit of prodo or whatever else to make myself useful. im a nice guy, and drama free and would prefer someone who is the same! i like to play guitar and sing also, so it would be great to find someone to jam with

anyone up for it???

thanks!
Dave

monkadelic, i'm pretty sure i have someone to take everything...if i have anything left over i'll shoot ya a pm

muph...as soon as the sale is complete i'm gonna cruise

i hope people didnt get the wrong impression...im not looking to live on someones couch for a year or whatever. ive finally decided to give up on glass as a career. its gonna be a major lifestyle change....i think im going to go back to school or something, but in the meantime id like to go somewhere, meet some cool people and have a good time while i have no obligations

thanks!

As someone who has experienced the prodo blues may I make a suggestion?
Keep your equipment! I don't know how long you have been working with glass but do you remember why you started? Take a vacation, maybe look into school or a regular job, but keep your equipment or loan it to a friend.

Dave's a good guy, Pretty chill, and honest. He's a great story/joke teller also, the guy really gets me laughing sometimes.

I know he'd bust out some prep and prodo for any one looking to trade for some accomodation, He's not as slow as he thinks he is, by the way!. And he makes some really nice stuff.

Good Luck Dave, Your always welcome at my place, but i only live around the corner.
