FX Show 2009: Joe Heads in a Jar! Contest
The first Joe Heads in a Jar! contest is completed and we
are currently reviewing all the entries. So, you're probably wondering whatever
happened to that Guess the Joes in the Jar Contest we had back at the FX
Convention. Well, honestly, it's a story. See, by the time we unloaded our
inventory from the convention in the Docking Bay, and took the Millennium Falcon
back (Okay, so, Ted's Mom's Big Yellow Ram is NOT The Millennium Falcon) we were
exhausted. So then we came in on our days off from the shop, Monday and Tuesday,
and proceeded to clean. As we surveyed the now chaotic fraction of our massive
back issue collection we'd taken to the show, we decided now was the perfect
time to finally get around to organizing and adding the 15 long boxes we still
had put in to the back issue bins. Needless to say, this proved to be a
monumental task, but it went relatively smoothly. We are very proud to say this
goal has been accomplished, and our back issue inventory is now easy to search
through, in its entirety. So anyways, the Joes in the Jar were waiting in their
jar, which a nameless individual had placed in a kind of out of the way spot.
Amidst the hub bub of rearranging shelves and moving boxes another nameless
individual seemingly bumped into a rolling cart, which in turn rolled in to the
rather large, all glass, jar. Suffice it to say, a picture is worth a thousand
words.
Look
at that! The tragedy! All that shattered glass... and corpses... scattered
everywhere. It must have been terrorists! Terrorists I say! I'd blame Cobra...
but as any body can see the bodies of their men lie scattered there as well. I
blame those lameoid guys from The Corps. Anyways, we proceeded to place the
fallen into their resting places, (The 2 Gallon
Zip-Lock bags from which they came) taking careful toll of the chilling body
count, The winners are:
