Time flies in the summer when you’re trying to have as much fun as possible and enjoy the few days of beauty weather we actually get up here. Sitting here trying to write this is painful, my spelling is off, my grammar is terrible, and I can’t seem to string sentences together that make any sense what so ever. Throw in some work here or there and the heavy denial to HSB begins to happen. It pains me to say that it’s been roughly 3 whole months before any update has been made on this website but I figured I better say something before the 10 people who have this place bookmarked decide to throw it in the trash. Thankfully within the next month or two that should all change.
Where I’ve Been
Well the last few weeks have been terribly busy for this guy but I’m slowly starting to round back into some sense of normalcy. I suppose what really set me behind the 8 ball was drawing up a slideshow for some good friends for their wedding…not in your boring typical “pictures flash while music plays in the background” though. This one was done in a style similar to A&E Biography. A story was written and told by our voiceover guy and of course the hard part was tracking down the celebrities so they could share there words about both Sean and Joline Willsey. That was one project.
Add in a few to many trips to Fort McMurray, a beautiful stretch of weather in Grande Prairie, and moving into a new house and you have yourself few hours in a day to actually sit down and do something productive. Who am I kidding, writing on this website is far from productive, thus the neglect for it.
I also have what feels like a bajillion websites needing to be finished. Two down, only about 6 more to go.
Light at the end of the Tunnel
On the flip side I have manged to pick away at HSB’s new layout and features. The front page is done and now move towards finishing up the author pages (although I may not need them if I have no authors correct), a new media section for pictures and videos, and of course the new craze that I’m sure we will all love in the future…Hotstickybun’s Drunken Phone Number. Yes that’s right, I’ve got a phone number (American at the moment, working on a Canadian one) where you can dial in to leave HSB a message proclaiming just how ripped you really are. Have had a couple people demoing it the last couple months and here are some samples of what I’ve had the priviledge to deal with

Only drawback right now is it has to be tied to an American number which I am working on getting one for both the U.S and Canada. If your one of the few people that would like to demo this by all means send me a message on Twitter or Facebook and I’ll send you the number.
Launch
Hoping to have this released to the general public full time when the site is re-released come late Summer or early fall. Depending on it’s success, for example lots of people call it, I’ll possibly be picking the five best messages monthly to be voted on and give away some prizes…needless to say start spreading the word and talk to me or any of the other HSB locals and they will hook you up with the number.
Till next time.
