Friday, May 29th, 2009Dear Thrillist,
I love you, I really do; but in this week’s missive on Makr Carry Goods, one of my town’s many laboratories of great stuff, you called us “Orlando of all places.”
That hurts, Thrillist. We’re not just some humid cowtown full of yeehaws, airboats, and moonshine. Let me list for you our innovations: *NSYNC. Orange juice. The space shuttle. The Kerouac Project (he lived here when On the Road was published, and typed Dharma Bums in a little house downtown).  EA Tiburon, which produces, like, every great sports video game every played. Not one, but two mayors–take that, bureaucracy! The best weather in the continental US. An airport so clean and entertaining that you won’t mind when the flight back to your city, of all places, is delayed.
Oh, I could go on. (Wayne Brady, anyone? Not to mention Tiger Woods lives right down the street from me. What up, T! See you at Perkins this weekend.)
But you get it, right? We may be barraged by hurricanes, plagued by terrible accents, and littered with strip malls, but that certainly doesn’t stifle our creativity.
We are smart, resilient, sweaty, and often drunk–just think of all the alcohol you can mix with fresh squeezed OJ! Also, we excel at driving long distances on crowded highways.
So it’s no surprise that Makr is creating perfect leather goods right in our midst. Come and visit; our roller coasters might rattle some sense into you.
xO,
Anna
