Things That Make You Go…

Hmmm.

When you publish a world famous blog and manage a worldwide media company you receive press releases daily.  Some are quite drab, boring and useless (such as the one from the National Corn Growers Association, the Renewable Fuels Association and the American Coalition for Ethanol in response to Thursday’s Policy Forum on Corn Ethanol Policy in the 112th Congress….zzzzzz) while others immediately catch the eye.

How about this one we got yesterday morning titled:  Big Ass Fan Company® introduces the smashingly durable Yellow Jacket®.

Now that’s what we’re talkin’ about!

Who doesn’t click on that link…really?

Apparently, there is in fact a Big Ass Fan Company located in Lexington, KY and they manufacture and sell…well, what else: big ass fans.

Rumor is that this "residential" model costs $2,800.

In the video below they beat up their new supposedly indestructible Yellow Jacket no doubt named after Georgia Tech’s Ramblin’ Wreck which has been around since 1908.  That said, it could just be a coincidence….

Check out their products and their website by clicking here and don’t miss the page called “Genius Not At Work.”  If you watch the video, move it ahead.  They bring out the big guns near the end.
