Self Promotion

In an effort to improve readership VVer #1 has been making a concerted effort to hand out business cards to random people.  At a recent Fillmore "Cares" open mic in Silver Spring this VVer was showing his sketchbook to folks and mentioned vinyl.  One of the musicians, the very talented Samir Moussa, had a mega eyebrow lifting moment, "I love vinyl!" he enthusiastically expressed.  When given the VVers business card he said: "So how does it work, do I just send you records?"  The answer is "YES."  Just send us your records. (Expressed with acumen* [what does that mean?].)  A nice conversation followed and the VVers managed to actually talk about the blog with a total stranger.  Victory!
VVer #1 got pretty sketchy that night.
* All this talk of acumen made us look up what it meant.  Writing is making us SMART!
