OK those are the facts… and with all this talk recently amongst friends about KBIS (this week), and at the center of the universe for what we do — we really want to make it to Chicago this year. But chances are, it will not happen without help. If I happen to place a PayPal widget in our sidebar, well, we will accept contributions there.
We are willing to take on sponsorship of our trip. That is — we will don your clothing, dispense your goodies, spread good will, or even remove our shirts completely and flex-pose << OK probably not that last one. But really anything you want. We will be there to represent you (as well as ourselves) and we will help provide coverage on your behalf. So, if you feel like helping some fellas out (and wanna feel good while doing it).

Update (7.9.11): While I have had a number of conversations with prospective sponsors, nothing is quite finalized. As a note and if I do not state this explicitly above, any arrangement that would be made would not only include presence at the show — it would also include spotlight placement on the blog, here: ads, links and postings. As well as much coverage and love through our twitter and facebook outlets. Thank you.
Thanks for reading — wish us luck, and only 106 miles to go. ~jb
