Skinny Tie Day
December 1, 2004 by Kevin D. Hendricks | Filed under: Company News
The Monkey Outta Nowhere world headquarters in St. Paul, Minn. had skinny tie day today. All employees were encouraged to wear a skinny tie in an effort to boost company-wide morale.
The gimmick proved to be popular with most employees and could see a return. It's not clear if skinny tie day will spread to other businesses, but prospects are good.
Monkey Wrote a Novel
December 1, 2004 by Kevin D. Hendricks | Filed under: Company News
It's with great honor and a bit of pride that congratulate our very own Head Monkey, Kevin D. Hendricks, for writing a novel. Kevin tackled the 50,000-word novel last month as part of National Novel Writing Month, joining almost 6,000 other winners from around the world.
Kevin managed to complete his first novel in a mere 20 days, thanks to an outpouring of support and lots of caffiene. He's currently copyediting the novel for a quick and dirty self-publishing run (available soon from Cafepress), and plans to pursue a more thorough edit and possible publication in the future. For now the unedited version of the novel is available online.
