The Death Row of Snowboarding

After the long-ass demo day, i'm sitting at home, eating my tots, sippin' my suns, and playing the crap out of Call of Duty 2 on the 360, when I started to draw parallels between AutoSnowCo. and other successful companies. Ok, what I meant to say was, I WANTED to draw parallels. This kind of thinking helps me to not lose sight of why I started a company in the 1st place. One of my philosophies says that if you're gonna stand, you might as well stand for something. So here it goes: If AutoSnowCo. was a [blank], i'd want it to be [blank].

a computer company, i'd want it to be Apple, not Microsoft.

a record company, i'd want it to be Death Row Records. Or Dischord or Fat wreck Chords or Hell Cat.

an outdoor clothing company, i'd want it to be Patagonia, not the North Face.

a clothing company, i'd want it to be Volcom, not Quiksilver.

a video game company, i'd want it to be Nintendo, not Sony or Microsoft.

Which reminds me I gotta play some Quake 4 on my roommate's Microsoft XBox 360. Right after I help the Russians suppress German advancements in 1941. And get myself another beer.
