QuizBus gets graphics

Published by Dave at 1:57 pm under Minutiae



Front graphics applied, originally uploaded by daveronku.

We applied the graphics to the bus today and it looks AWESOME. Couldn’t go with the really sparkly vinyl we wanted - it’s really expensive - but it ended up looking totally cool anyway. With the graphics on there, the bus is all but done. All that’s left is the installation of some equipment for the shoot, but the form it’s in now is how it will be when we sell the bus.

    Looks good! I’m all about the sparkly vinyl for all things in life, but hey, sometimes, you just might find, you get what you need. Oh, yeah.

    That little yellow sign that pops out makes me want to stop and think. Oh, right, right right right right right right. Got it.

    You should have painted it to look like this:

    your bus reminds me of the “Magic School Bus” probably just because it does not look like a normal bus.

    I think our logo is cooler.

    Jim, I’m glad the whole point of the THINK sign wasn’t lost on you.

    yeah, but yours can’t fly and change into rockets, submarines, etc.

    LOL It is a cool looking bus though. Is this going to air on PBS? When is the Quiz Bus’s debut on the street?

    The show airs this fall on PBS, in Ohio. I’ll have DVDs as usual.

    The QuizBus debuted last weekend. Andy and Faith (Duilio’s older daughter) took Danni (Duilio’s younger daughter) and five of her friends to prom. They rolled into the lot with the neon and all the other lights flashing and the PA playing. I guess it was a helluva sight!

    Does the horn play “La Cucaracha”? Do you cruise the streets of Cleveland looking for unsuspecting people to quiz? Maybe you can play “Are you smarter than a short bus driver” and get an unemployed comedian to be the host. If a contestant wins, what do they get?

    I think the horn plays “La Cucaracha” and 29 other tunes. Plus we have a mic to use it as a PA.

    Whether they win or not, all they get is a paycheck.

    They ought to paint all school busses with the cool swish, rather than the boring stripe!

    It is one cool school bus.

    Why thanks. I thought the swoosh was a rather inspired decision if I do say so my damn self.

    “They ought to paint all school busses with the cool swish”

    yes, but then Dave wouldn’t have the most “special” short bus…
