Open Letter to yellowpages.com
Dear YP.com:
On November 6th, 2013, my business received a “Real White Pages” from yellowpages.com. It was found on the front step of my business, and had to picked up or else tripped over.
Since we use the Internet when we want to find things, we immediately knew we didn’t need it. Thankfully, there was a number right there on the front of the book to call to opt-out of the delivery. I couldn’t remember ever opting-in, but oh well.
When I called the number, everything went smoothly at first. I gave the operator my business name, phone #, address, and made it clear we no longer wished to receive the book.
The operator informed me that in order to process my request, she needed my name. I told her it was “Jake” and “thank you.” Then she asked for my last name, and I asked her why she needed that since she knew my business name and address. And shouldn’t that be enough to stop future unwanted deliveries?
She told me that, no, she needed my first and last name to complete the request. I told her I preferred not to provide that information or any other information, but that I still wanted the request processed. She balked at this and said she still needed my last name. So, I tried to end the matter by saying that my last name was spelled “Bdglqtv” or something like that. She then informed me that I wasn’t “cooperating” with her. I told her I didn’t exactly think she was cooperating with me, and I asked to be transferred to her supervisor. She thankfully complied.
About 8 minutes later, another person came on the line. I explained to him what I was trying to accomplish. He politely verified my business name and address, and then asked me for my name. I explained that I wasn’t willing to share this or any further information; that this was the reason I’d asked to be transferred to a supervisor. The gentleman finally said that he was willing to accept the first initial of my last name. Since I’d already spent 15 minutes of my day on this matter, I was eager to get back to work, so I gave in and told him it was “W,” which was the truth this time.
I’d really appreciate someone from YP.com explaining this policy and answering these questions: Why do I have to provide additional information in order to prevent your company from throwing your product upon the steps of my address? And is this policy so strict that my phone inquiry really had to be escalated in such an inconvenient manner at the expense of both our businesses?
Sincerely,
Jake. . . Waitzman (There I said it. I realize you will likely use this information to update my record on your database.)
The @MakersMark news (http://ti.me/X5hHdu via @TIME) reminds me of this picture @pallid7 took of me. #notsuicidal
Beginning to sort of look an awful lot like Christmas.
For Drew's 40th birthday, Tido Bandito and Jaco Tremendez got him a sizable piece of timber.
Local 6pm Evening News (NBC 13, WVTM, Birmingham, AL) segment about Texting While Driving. Original air date: 7-30-12. Ordinance became enforceable on 8-1-12.
I am interviewed a the 1:55 mark. Just before that, they show a law enforcement officer with my name as the caption. NBC 13: "Where Accuracy Matters" indeed. Back to you, Ani.

This is the original song "Amos The Christmas Rooster", written and preformed by Reed Lochamy and Will Lochamy for the 2011 Dean and Company Christmas Special.
I shot this with Will and Reed at Vulcan Park between segments of their "Iron Bowl Hour" TV show taping.
Hive turns an iPhone 4 into a laptop with Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. Hive is in production and will be ready to ship early 2012. Please visit HiveDock.com and join the mailing list. You'll be the first to know when it's available. Pre-order coming soon.
The DrumRoll was conceived by two gigging drummers (@TerryOhms and @JacoTremendez) to combine the drum rug and the hardware bag. With limited space in the van, it seemed obvious these two pieces of gear should be merged.
IT’S A RUG: Clean, black, subtle design looks pro onstage and in the studio. Looped, interchangeable carpet rests atop a durable outer layer to keep the drum kit snug and static. Rigid, carbon fiber bar across the front prevents the bass drum from sliding. Symmetrical design accomodates right and left-handed players.
IT’S A BAG: Rugged outer material protects gear from the perils of the road. Tough handles, straps, and zippers make load-in and load-out a breeze. Convenient pockets keep drum vitals close at hand.
Patent pending. Email [email protected] for more information about the The DrumRoll.

Caught a little blue crab on my way in from Yolo board fishing last weekend. Just got the GoPro camera from Best Buy the day before. So hopefully I'll be able to post something soon with a little more action (marine life action that is).
We crashed a beach wedding last weekend with @goprocamera and @morphsuits
Enjoy the video.

ROCTRAMP RADIO LIVE is a two hour weekly music exploration where hosts Terry Ohms and Jaco Tremendez communicate with ROCTRAMP, an unmanned, artificially intelligent, alien spacecraft/super-computer. Each week the Vulture Whalian hosts attempt to learn more about ROCTRAMP, who often prefers to converse cryptically via theme-based song lists.
Terry and Jaco have determined these things so far: ROCTRAMP has roamed the cosmos for millions of years. She is a "she." She hovers Earth in geosynchronous orbit over Alabama. She communicates only with Terry and Jaco. She likes the rock. She was expelled from her home star system because she got a tattoo. ROCTRAMP stands for "Roaming Otherworldly Cosmic Traveling Robotic Artificial Music Plam."
