First Ever Chia Pet made from 500 Pens or Dangerous Bed of Pens

The first ever Chia Pet made from 500 pens was made possible from a generous donation from Amsterdam Printing who included the Mercedes Pens Art car as one of the top 11 most bizarre branding collections. Thank you very much. They sent me a box of metallic branded pens that were miss prints and this is what I did with them.

Pen Guy Episode 4 – How To Buy A Used Car Hassle Free

I met Michael Carney at my local gas station the other day who happens to be known as the “Car Man“. We had a good chat about what he does for a living and promised he would send me some used pens in the mail. They did come, so I decided to make short video about what its like to buy a used car from the dealership these days knowing a little bit about it from having sold cars for exactly three months. What Michael does is eliminate the hassle of buying a used car by doing it for you. He goes out to car auctions every week and shops for cars so you don’t have to. After watching my funny video you will agree with me that car buying is nightmare and what the Car Man does makes sense. If you happen to be in the market for a used car give the Car Man a call or if you want to do it yourself I suggest you read Beat The Car Salesman.

Attack of the Hungry Pen Eating Droid

A very hungry pen eating robot will be munching on old used pens at the Video Droid tomorrow in Santa Rosa, as soon as I drop him off. He will be there as long as it takes to eat plenty of used pens from the local population.

He was created from a used Christmas wrapping paper bin I found for a buck at the VNA thrift store on Santa Rosa.

I filled the top section with pens to make it look like robot brains. I also borrowed some elements from the Mercedes pens by adding the 3D cube on the chest and the tubes on the top for hair. The middle one is actually punched through so the used pens can be dropped in the top of our hungry robot.

By the way a featured article in the Bohemian is coming out on Wed April 14 about the Pen guy and the Mercedes Pens.

Pen Donations from Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit

And speaking of pen donations for the million pen project, these used pens just came in from some faithful pen guy fans. Three envelopes with used pens were sent from San Diego, Detroit and the UK. The San Diego one came with two Pilot g2 pens and the one from the UK came in a bag because the envelope burst open and had to be re-wrapped, but it got here OK. The third envelope came over from the Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, MI, so thank you and hope things warm up for you guys soon.

Pen Donation Barrel at El Molino Pharmacy in Forestville

Pen Donation Barrel at El Molino Pharmacy in Forestville

My first pen recycling barrel covered in pens just went in last Thursday right after the Forestville Business Expo sponsored by the Forestville Chamber of Commerce. Pete Summers the new owner of the El Molino Pharmacy in Forestville agreed to be the first business to place one of my pen recycling barrels in front of his store. During the business expo I got a chance to talk to a lot of folks who were very pleased to have a place to donate all their old pens. I also talked to others interested in placing one of these custom pen barrels at their business or schools in the surrounding area. I would love to find more locations all over west county and beyond, so please email me to order yours today.

The Pen Guy’s Million Pen Drive is now on its way to realization with the help of the community who catch the vision of this peculiar project of mine:)
