sure there is huvason…

take the total # of comments on HSB and subtract the # of complaints people leave, then divide the total commentors by the number of complainers and divide that into the prior total and voila!

Oh thats not the number we are looking for here, thats a different story

127

Ok, I’ll say it for you mrs ryan (lol)…

Bad booger, bad!

Last night, pmac wanted a flyer about Jim’s “Step Up for Charity” so he could hand it out to some local firehouses (or something like that). I bascially took the stuff off the web, and threw it together in a PDF for him (any anyone else who wants a copy). Sent it to Jim for his OK as well.

Thanks, I also sent you a reply I would like you to read. Just reply via e-mail please.

91, have to go with my first guess.

What is the time and date for this thing going on over there Bret? It’s possible Mandy and I will come over for it and hopefully we can all drink some liquor afterwards.

Also, if the date/time works out, perhaps I can meet up with Jim and bring his things over to you.

Let me know!

Thanks, doin well- been putting a butt load of hours in at work, they’re killin me. How are you…..

DOH! we do have a two-timer now what do I do?

Vic, I’ve got a Ram 2500 that it wouldn’t fit into either. Can you be there by tomorrow at 5:00 to help? Things have been crazy the last couple of weeks. All the retailers getting ready for the big summer start up this weekend signals. One of the things I find funny is that to many up north here this weekend is the “start” of BBQ season. It’s not an all year thing to many. Ends at Halloween if not before!

Mrs.Ryan on 5/26/2006 at 11:14 pm said:

I have seen that trend also, being in the south I think it’s BBQ season just about all year; but our grills, charcoal, patio furn, etc. have just taken off in sales just these last two weeks or so. And we can’t keep the ground beef, ribs, & chops full in the cases!!

Sam’s gets them in here early, if you want to get anything good, you better have already got it. They don’t restock either.

Hey there Mrs.R how are you doing? I think you’re right, all the votes needed to be cast on this thread according to Nick’s closing post this morning.

I am doing well Vic, Thanks for asking, 2 more days of work and then I have a 3 day weekend how are you doing?

Yes- a lot of special buys and seasonal items, you will see it for Christmas also= early in / early out. That way we don’t get stuck with a lot of seasonal liabilities causing mark-downs.

It seems like I remember the concept. There’s always something to do when you own your own business. The fire protection gig demanded a 24 hr on call status. This is a lot more fun though. It could be a lot worse!

I know all about that 24 hour on call- It can be brutal, nothing worse then an alarm call at 2am to check out a warm freezer box or a roof top AC unit. Your right CaJohn, it could be worse though.

How do you know you are not right for your guess, diid they ever say what the actual number was? Its higher than a hundred almost for sure assuming he carries all of the product.

A little birdie told me once my guess had been entered & I couldn’t change it. Nothing more will be said.

One guess per person, i see!!!!!!!! Pmac maybe you should guess now.

Well let me tell you a little storie. JJ sets under 320.00 sq ft roof. The retail sales floor is right around 280.000 sq ft a supercenter wal-mart is 180.000 sq ft. I run the the International foods dept. I have 25 people tha work with me. Out of 320 total that work at JJ. I have over 45.000 food items from 75 countries. The store has over 250.000 Items in it. I deal with over 350 vendors from all over the world. That includes manf like CaJohns and Blair’s. Some of them might only have 1 or 2 items all the way up to 5000 items. We have more small guys then big ones. That what make use diffrent than the big Nat stores. Come now could you see walking into your local Wal-mart store and looking at over 1400 diffrent HOT SAUCES………NOT………We also have a reception Hall and in the future we are going to hold are on Hot Sauce Show. Next year I hope. Most everbody have said there on with it. I will be picking CaJohn apart with this one. We have fun. I been ther over 11 years. Been in the food @ Bev Bus 15 years before that. I work for a diffrent kind of man he is very off the the wall I guess that’s were I get it from. I have seen so many people roll there eye’s at me and say OMG you can’t do that. Then I do it. We just like being diffrent at Jungle Jim’s.

Cool - still wishing I could have been there.

holy cow, that is freakin cool Bret. so you have a creative license when it comes to your job, you just run with it and the boss man lets you….so whose idea was it for the hot sauces?

Evening everybody. I would like to take a moment to bring some much needed attention to something…Charity. We all know and love Jim Campbell. A man that dedicates his life to not only saving lives by being a firefighter, but the love of all things hot and spicy-something we can all relate to. Jim is trying to raise money for charities via “Step up for Charity”. In an effort to support Jim in his fund raising efforts, an auction has been placed on ebay. 100% of the proceeds of this auction is going to Jim’s charity fundraiser account set up by Nick here on the HSB. However, no attention is being brought to this auction here on the HSB. The winner of this auction will recieve 2 great collector’s bottles of sauce. One is a limited addition by the Hot Sauce Underground (signed by all 4 members), the other is a signed bottle of Backdraft from Jim Campbell himself. Included is a custom made “Box of Fire” display case to hold the bottles. Please, for charity’s sake, check out the auction, place a bid. The item number on Ebay is 4466025256. If you have any questions regarding this, you may contact Tracy C. Thank you for your attention to this and for helping out Jim with his charity work.

Ryan, I appreciate you mentioning this auction. Out of respect for Nick, Tracy refrains from directing any attention to our store from the blog. This auction, however, is a group effort by members of the HSU to benefit “Step Up For Charity.” I would love to see the members of this blog rally support for Jim’s efforts.

Woohoo, I love my lady Ms. MandyCane!

Bret, we have your card placed somewhere here that you gave us at the IN Hotluck. Good meeting you there and unfortunately we didn’t make it down Saturday as we had planned to. Found out that morning my cousin and her boyfriend from Texas had come into town last minute for the race so we hung out that day/night.

We’ll be in touch and thanks in advance! Hope the festivities were a good time as I imagine they were.

WOOHOO!! We are so excited to get these bottles. Can’t wait to get them on our shelf. Eddie owes me big time for the good guessing…I will hold that one over his head for a while :).

Thank you!!

“We also have a reception Hall and in the future we are going to hold are on Hot Sauce Show. Next year I hope.”

Bret, just keep me in the loop when you are planning this event, I haven’t been in Ohio since 1971 when we lived in Columbus.
