Best Memories…Mindee
Memory: Moved out here from Chicago because her boyfriend
got a job transfer. She had a job lined up, but got “screwed over” when she got
here. Luckily she applied with a different company, and was hired on really
quickly.
Writer’s Thought: Mindee was really sick during the
interview.

A Man of Many Talents…Keith Weldon
I “officially” met Keith at the very first Jerry Bell Jr.
event. I had talked to him a few times before that, but had never met him in
person.
And this is how I met him that night…
I saw him, and instantly recognized him. So I walked over
and said something like, “Aren’t you the guy who turned me down on my Lemon
Cake Initiative?” That sparked up a
conversation and we’ve been talking off and on ever since.
For those who don’t know who Mr. Weldon is; first of all shame
on you, but you have probably seen his work even if you don’t know his name. You
have definitely seen the models he works with, and you have definitely seen his
photography.
Keith Weldon is a clothing designer, a photographer, an
artist, a chef, a talent agent, and so much more. He’s so famous that even his
car has its own YouTube channel.
I can’t say that I know Keith very well, but what I do know
about him I like. He has been a person who has given my advice on certain
projects, and has always kept the up-most level of being super positive. I
respect this man a lot because he is doing what he loves, never compromises,
and has shown me nothing but love and respect.
I’d vote for Keith Weldon as mayor right now, and I don’t
even care if the polls aren’t open, or that he’s not running; I’d write his
name in.
The man loves life and you can see that in everything that
he does. Go out and buy one of his designer dresses, hire him as a photographer
for that special occasion, or simply wave hello as he cruises by in Casper.
Learn more about Keith Weldon; because something as simple
as following him on social media will enrich your life…I’m the better for it.
Here are a few links to get you started…

Caleb Brouk Is Many Things to Many People
Caleb is a husband, a dad, a mentor, a business
professional, and a friend.
I met Caleb Brouk a while back, and because of his
intriguing nature, he didn’t toss me out of his shop on the first day that he
met me; instead he researched me and the project that I was working on. He did
all of the right things, and that is more than I would ask anyone to do.
To me…that said a lot about his character.
Since that day, our business and personal relationships have
flourished. We have a working business relationship, we partner on special
projects that help and give back to the community, and I am proud to call Caleb
my friend. He’s the third bother that I never had (I already have two thanks to
my parents).
Caleb Brouk is my family.
He has my respect!!!!
But enough about us and more about Mr. Brouk…
Caleb cares…
If I had to describe Caleb in one word, it would be “cares”.
He actually gives a damn about others, and that is a trait
that I find rare. Yes, all people care about something, and sometimes they care
about lots of things, but that’s not what I am talking about.
I am talking about Caleb genuinely cares about the people
that come into his life, and whatever they find to be of value in their lives,
Caleb also comes to care about it too. That is one of the reasons that Caleb
Brouk is so successful in life and in business.
People can see that…people can feel that…
Illuminati Tattoo Parlor (Caleb’s business) is an extension
of Caleb. His tattoo shop has been an outreach and saving grace for so many. It’s
not always about the money.
Growing up, most of us have had trials and tribulations that
made us or broke us. We each had to choose paths that made us who we are today.
Some of us were dealt a crappy hand when it came to life, and Caleb was no exception.
But Caleb didn’t follow the easier path that others, who
grew up like him, followed. Instead, he took the harder, more rewarding path to
help others and make the world a brighter place.
I know a lot of people, I associate with a lot of people,
and I don’t know of anyone who dislikes Caleb Brouk. There are people, however,
who haven’t been fond of all of his decisions, and that is because Caleb helps
whoever he can, and gives everyone a chance (or ten). The temporary haters don’t
believe certain people should be given a hand for any reason, but Caleb
disagrees and helps (if he can) anyways.
The funny thing is…
That most of the time, Caleb can turn that hater around and
have them assist in giving out that helping hand to the person who they
originally didn’t believe deserved it. I smile every time that I see that.
That is a gift…
Caleb’s passion and caring is so powerful that he can change
minds and bring people together.
And through that gift, he has built a reputation for being
honest, reliable, trustworthy, and an incredible hard worker.
And on top of that…
Caleb is an incredible tattoo artist, painter, and drawer.
Caleb has a huge following…from the rich, to celebrities, to
the single moms who sell things on Etsy to scrape up enough money to come in
for tatt time…Caleb is loved.
In fact…
Whoever your tattoo artist is now…stop going to them and go
down to Illuminati Tattoo Parlor in Vancouver, WA.
Not only is Caleb there, but he also has some other really
talented artist working with him.
Want more proof…
Come down to the shop and meet Caleb Brouk for yourself.
I trust him, respect him, and knowing him is a blessing.
I recommend him for all of your tattoo and art needs.
Caleb Brouk
