  • Why we buy from Small Business 

    Daniel -

    Thanks for your order with CD Baby!

    Your CD has been gently taken from our CD Baby shelves with
    sterilized contamination-free gloves and placed onto a satin pillow.

    A team of 50 employees inspected your CD and polished it to make sure
    it was in the best possible condition before mailing.

    Our packing specialist from Japan lit a candle and a hush fell over
    the crowd as he put your CD into the finest gold-lined box that money
    can buy.

    We all had a wonderful celebration afterwards and the whole party
    marched down the street to the post office where the entire town of
    Portland waved ‘Bon Voyage!’ to your package, on its way to you, in
    our private CD Baby jet on this day, Monday, May 9th.

    I hope you had a wonderful time shopping at CD Baby. We sure did.
    Your picture is on our wall as ‘Customer of the Year’. We’re all
    exhausted but can’t wait for you to come back to CDBABY.COM!!

    Thank you once again,

    Derek Sivers, president, CD Baby

      Interesting…I didn’t quite get the same level of friendly attitude when I made a purchase from a small font-related business. It made me feel all dirty, and I had to run straight to Wal*Mart before I could feel clean again.

      You shower at Wal*Mart? That seems so inconvenient.

      Maybe you should invest in matching towels and shower curtains if your own bathroom bothers you that much.

  • Sure, the B-Boy dancing was cool, but Capoeira USA showed where the real fun was happening.

    Again, thanks to Claudine for inviting me to the show in the first place.

      Danny! Thanks sooo much for taking these videos! They are fantastic! I’m going to let my group know, if you don’t mind…

      I’m glad you got to see what this stuff was all about… You managed to capture in the videos some of the illest capoeiristas playing today…

      It was my pleasure, really. If your group wants the (640×480) originals, let me know.
