I recognized early on that were I to be recognized for what I do I'd have to change the business's name from simply Elephant Trunk. So I decided upon Elephant Trunk Moving Supplies. This might not have been proper recognition. It seems that when people search for moving supplies, they most often use the search term "moving boxes", so maybe I should have gone with Elephant Trunk Moving Boxes.
Talegaiting
I have consistently enjoyed driving around the towns in which I live. One of my better jobs, straight out of college, was delivering meat to various Sizzler restaurants in Louisville, KY. My dad wasn't quite so impressed, but at least he found it a step up from my feeble attempt at steering a cab. But just as in any endeavor, there is a downside to my cruising, and that is my being forced into being the most gracious denizen of the drive.
Outgoing and Incoming Administrations
Yes, the administration here is outgoing and will chipper-cheerfully have moving supplies incoming to your home. When you're finished with them, we'll hip-hop happily be incoming to your new place to get them outgoing and out of your way. Now how's that for good administrations (and bad writing)? Hopefully it's taken your mind away from all the political noise going on right about now. And for even better administration, this piece might earn me a week off from blogging, as Chloe might be rethinking her wanting me to write one of these each week. One way or the other, I'm trying. Elephant Trunk Moving Supplies - We're thinking outside the cardboard box!
Blogging for Dollars
"I've Seen All Good People"
That I remain positive in quoting this positive song title by the positively named band, Yes, I shall not continue with the lyrics that follow the title, "turn their heads each day," even though this may simply be to cough or watch the girl from Ipanema walk by (the Olympics are over? Had I met my deadline, I swear the allusion would be relevant).
LeBron Sells Tartoon Balloons in Town
Up to this moment, I have believed that the balloons sold by Levon are made of tartoon. I assumed that tartoon was some type of rubber-like product, and I thought it cool that either Bernie Taupin or Elton John was cool enough to know from what material balloons are made. Imagine how disappointed I feel to now know that Levon has been selling the not half-as-cool, cartoon balloons. I mean which would you rather have - a cartoon balloon or a tartoon balloon?
Bag Waving
I’m at the grocery store yesterday – a nice grocery store – when I find myself at the meat counter (up to that point, I was totally lost to myself). I am pleasantly asked, "How may I help you," and I pleasantly responded, “A half a pound of the roast beef, please.” So the guy sliced it up, bagged it up, handed it up, and asked if I would like anything else, to which I replied, “No thank you.” Pretty nice encounter so far. We’re a couple of humans who have politely acknowledged each other.
Google Verbiage
I was recently sent a "Google My Business" code that I might be found through its services. Pleased big time, I immediately entered the code and now I can be found - if you already know about me. Were you to google moving containers, container rental, moving container rental, moving containers for rent, moving container companies, portable moving containers, moving services, or moving supplies Dallas- base SEO recommendations - you will find a Denton moving company before you find me. Heck, you'll probably even find love before you find me, as I gave up after page 7. So what's a guy have to say? Allow me to repeat myself (you don't have to read this) - moving containers, container rental, moving container rental, moving containers for rent, moving container companies, portable moving containers, moving services, or moving supplies Dallas.

Enthusiasm
The great Ralph Waldo Emerson once, or maybe several times, said, "Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm" (the guy was notoriously quotable. I still love "a foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds." No one could get away with using "hobgoblin" like Emerson) , and I agree. What I especially appreciate is the enthusiasm with which our enterprise has been met. Not only have our customers been enthusiastic, but also are those whom I have told what it is we are doing. My job is to warrant this enthusiasm, and I do so enthusiastically. Thank you.
