  Rachel's Whip

Post by Robby Amper »

Rachel sent me a whip for my expertise. That package was funny. The invoice was attached to the outside of the box, to read for everybody. What it is, why, when and who. You know what? It worked...! It passed customs without any problem :) :) :) Rachel - it arrived safe and sound. The outer box was a bit wet, but the second box inside... That thing would survive an earthquake! I started to unwrap it - about three hours ago - and now I have it in my hands. I took it out into the garden - muddy and wet - and started to test it. There are a few very good things I have to say, I have a recommendation (but not for Rachel) and one thing, I don't like.

Here we go.

You know what? I think it's better to sit in front of a camera and talk about it. Don't expect a "regular" WB review. This will only be me, the whip and a simple cam. But it will do the job. I will go out tomorrow again to give the whip a few more cracks. The whip was very cold and right out of the box, so I think it's only fair to give it a second chance when it's a bit "relaxed". I'm going to do that over the weekend.

All I can say right now is this: Rachel, you made... No. Rachel, that whip is aw... No. I see a chance for... No, that's not good, too. Rachel - if I were you, I would stop... No. That's not good, either.

You see - I have to make a video. A little and simple one, but...a video.

Weekend.

Robby, I'm sure I'm not the only one panting in anticipation. Rachel's work looks great: I'm dying to know how her whips perform....

Oh how exciting! You know I am so proud of you whippy sistah. You have come a long way in such a short time. It's high time someone turned the spotlight on you and let you dance.

Rachel, don't worry .... when Robby teases like that it's going to be good.
You might want to tell us what you put on the outside of the box in the shipping invoice so it could work for others too.

Rachel, might as well start , if you haven't all ready, designing you logo, letter heads, envelopes and business cards.
You are, I feel, very close to being commercially on your way! :)
I can only speak for myself but I am very proud of you.

Yay! Something passes German customs.

You know, Angela Merkel recently visited France. Customs asked her "occupation?" And she said "No. Just visiting."

I know. That joke doesn't really work in the EU.

Way to go Rachel! Can't wait to see the video.
Here's wishing you find time for the things you want to do, and for the things you need to do.
We see ourselves in our children and hope for a better future.
