The new JASE coffee mugs have arrived. I’ll be glad to share them with 25 of my bestest friends. Creatively tell me why you would want one and I’ll have it shipped to you today.

The Morning War
It’s early in the morning as the alarm yells at me violently. I always get the impression that it hates me. It’s beady double zeros showing me it’s six in the morning and time to wake up, stare at me as I kick the covers off my feet and discipline the alarm clock by smacking it upside its head. What a terrible job it has…it reminds me that my job really is not so bad I could always be an alarm clock.
I walk into the kitchen and start the pot of coffee. I never know if it’s the coffee that wakes one up or the anticipation gained from the smell knowing that your battle to sleep will soon be lost by general caffeine and his army of creme and sugar.
The battles take place on a daily basis. It’s a life long war that started with the incredible interruption of sleep the moment of birth.
Coffee has long been the secret weapon of the alliance and because so, it needs a special transportation device. No ordinary cup will do.
I look into the cabinet and pass up the Thermos and Nalgene bottles. They are awkward and tall and Styrofoam cups are to small for today’s battle…
That’s when the JASE mug is hit with a glimmer of light that catches the nearly half opened eye. It’s perfect. The size is just right and the handle makes it so my lack of strength allows me to fill the cup to the brim and cradle it without any strength.
I pour in the sugar, the now completed coffee, then finally cool it down for quick consumption with cold milk.
The battle has been won. The coffee drained but the JASE mug lives on for another battle, sufficient to fight the long war for many, many years.
I would appreciate a JASE mug because 1) it’s only for cool people who appreciate social media: JASE has taught me the value of even using it in my new pet sitting business…look out world this ain’t your grandmother’s dog walker! and 2) to fill with my Keurig Green Mountain coffee because the Lord knows, Keith has the market covered with Starbucks!
Once upon a time in a land far away a knight quested to find the sacred JASE coffee cup, he twittered and bookmarked near and far, fought SPAM and Trolls and even once a malware infestation along his path to find the JASE coffee cup which was told to have amazing magical powers to keep the bearer awake and aware of the social media opportunities around him.
He Googled and Googled until he found the place where the JASE coffee cup resided. He then set to observe the activities of what a brand management firm in Norfolk, Virginia that is a full-service advertising, marketing and information technology agency, specializes in social media, branding, advertising, marketing and next generation engineering type of place might do. He knew as soon as the knight Keith Parnell appeared he would be abble to secure the JASE coffee cup from the other noble knight.
I’m writing today cause I’d like a JASE mug,
For coffee, hot chocolate or tea.
I’d share with my wife, she’d give me a hug,
and enjoy her morning coffee out under our tree.
I’m writing today cause I’d like a JASE mug.
Keith gave a chance to creatively ask
Not fight over them; push, pull or tug.
Deciding who gets them may be a task.
I’m writing today cause I’d like a JASE mug..
I’ll write, design, sing or even cut a rug.!
As a medical transcriptionist full time at a hospital and part time at home, my day starts at 4 a.m. I can barely keep my eyes open throughout the day. In fact, today somebody sent me a funny e-mail titled “Five Best Things to Say if You Get Caught Sleeping at Your Desk.” I immediately printed it out and hung it on the wall in my cubicle. I liked the #3 thing to say “Whew! Guess I left the top off teh White-Out. You probably got here just in time.” The #1 thing to say was (while raising head slowly) “In Jesus name, amen.”
This is why I need a mug, so I don’t have to use this list, ever!
Thanks for the awesome stories. Send me your mailing addresses in the JASEzone so we can get them shipped out to you this week: http://jasezone.keithparnell.com/

Posted by Angela Bailey | 02. Jun, 2009, 11:25 AMDon’t know if I can approve of using Christ’s name in vain to seem religious when you were stealing company time.
