Martha Stewart has Nothing on ThaGierk

A home project for you.

    This last Christmas I received a food vacuum sealer.  So my wife and I went to Costco and loaded up on ribs, steaks, tri-tips, pork etc.  I also decided I would start up ThaGierks Tasty Meat Empire for fun.  I also suggest you do this at home if you too have a food vacuum  sealer  a computer and a printer. Basically all I did was make labels for the meat. The label serves really two purposes.  First you have a date on the package to when you actually bought the meat.  Most people just write the date with a permanent marker.  This method works just fine, but I don't like it.  Second it makes the meat yours.  In a world where Johnny is raised to be number 1 and can never do any wrong, and his shit don't stink, Johnny now has another way to tell all friends and family around him, he's still a mommas boy and he's still very special and different.

    Now, I'm not no Johnny.  Shit, I wouldn't be writing such lame web pages if  I were.  I'm just a person that seeks attention by attacking others who really have no idea I'm attacking them.  Currently I'm trying to change my approach for getting attention.  I now do things that give me a sense of accomplishment.  Even doing lame things, like making labels for  vacuum sealed meats. 

    You must be thinking, "Shit, Gierk, that looks to complicated for any of my skills.  I rather smoke a blunt and just get high like that brother in the clip art then do all that work."  I will admit it does  look complicated.  Using words like Tri-Tip and catch phrases like "Grill it right, this ain't no joke."   Not to mention throwing down a plug for www.thagierk.com  can be pretty tough.  But you're creating something fun.  I can admit that my stuff looks lame compared to what the producer of tha gierk dot com can do, but at least it's something.  I even took it one step further and put a label on the back of the package.  A short story about a boy, his dad, and a grill. 

    So here's what you need to label your meats.

            1. Food Vacuum Sealer of some sort.

            2. A computer with a printer.

            3. Labels, I prefer full sheet labels from Avery.  #5165

            4. A computer application for creating labels, I used Print Workshop 2005

            5. An imagination or being able to think outside the box. (this is a must)

    In a nutshell, that's it. So have fun, and if they ask, tell them tha gierk made you do it.
