Nice article on YGG (and a pic of the toys and clothing Kidrobot made for them) in the New York Times Sunday Magazine today. Christian and Scott the creators are total geniuses, as is Charlie Rivkin, W!ldbrain's CEO. I once read an article about Van Halen in the 80's, and people said they were successful because they are all super-nice people (yes, even David Lee Roth). People just liked to be around them, and that really helped their carreers. It's the same thing with the Gabba guys, and with Charlie, who used to run Jim Henson's company, and who I work alongside almost every day.

Paul,
How about opening up a store in DC....Some Georgetown lovin? I'm a friend of Mark Wills, Big Guyana and would love to help that project become a reality...
Michael
Thank you. Man, I would love to open down there. We're thinking about different cities, and it just takes a while to find the right place!
Paul,
How much money are we talking here? I have a whole crew of people down there interesting...Someone even interviewed my friend John Lyn Shue for the manager position in Miami but he came up short....Talk with Big Mark, he knows I got a TON of ideas...Plus check out a glassblowing school I helped opened in Berkeley....Revereglass.com... We are trying to come up with some glass ideas for KR

That you for your note, it's totally flattering that you'd be so interested. The glass blowing school looks great. I grew up in Berkeley, actually.
Right now we're building all our stores ourselves. So we couldn't use your help, even though it would be fun!
PB,
Dont go writing me that quick...I'm on the lookout for a size 13 for you...
