Friend Feature: Jacob A. Slann

  My friend Jacob Slann was the FIRST PERSON EVER to follow my little blog, in the history of MIMZEE. I am so lucky because he always had faith and interest in my little writings, and I am SO SO THANKFUL!!

 So, I told him I'd write a feature here on MIMZEE discussing the 
Coolest Zombie Gilligan Kid Ever.

  Sort of my way of bowing down and saying "I'm not worthy, I'm not worthy!!"


  Let me start by saying Jacob is a bona fide gangsta.  He goes to school, and has two amazing sons.  (We'll get to toddler juggling and/or tossing in a minute.)
   Although he is, "not a man of patience, and hates roller coasters," Jacob can still rock a room with his personality and charisma.  
  Colorado Springs is his home, and he's sure the grass is greener in his world.  
  Lately, Jacob's world has been enveloped and devoured by schooling, and family.  He is getting his bachelor's degree in Business, with an emphasis in the entertainment arena.  Which may come in handy with all of the hugs, boogers and the overwhelming amount of slobbery toddler kisses. Hey, boogers and baby farts are entertaining! Don't deny this.
   The oldest son, Boscoe Black will be three soon and his little bro, Cash Cavan will be two this summer.  Boys are notorious for being goofy and a total blast. plus these two are going to be heartbreakers...

   Time for favorites:
               Food: Sopa de Fideos, basically tomato soup but exponentially better- this soup has a little lime juice in there and some hot sauce. What the recipe? Talk to Slann. 
              Color: Black... it is a color. a FINE color. " Ask any Chemist and they will tell you it is."
              Book: Fear and Loathing in Los Vegas: A Savage Journey to the Heart of the American Dream, by Hunter S. Thompson. 
             Says Jacob, "This is not because I enjoy drugs (I am just not into that stuff). It is also not because of the movie. This book is so descriptive and written so well. Every time I read this book I picture things completely different. It makes my imagination set fires in my mind. These fires smolder out leaving a burnt spot reminding me constantly of what I have read."
             Song: Ballgame, by Kevin Devine. 
"This song has let every word I could not think of to describe myself and how I fell about life come to existence in one great song. Kevin’s albums are amazing and I beg you to listen to Ballgame loud and without distraction." 

Jacob also enjoys Connor Lovat-Fraser, known for his work in the band Boys Night Out.
***PLEASE LISTEN TO Torrid Love Affair***


   When Jacob isn't learning the basics of entertainment, or getting pwned (yes I said pwned) by his boys, he likes to play guitar, he's trying to get a little cover band started, "just to keep the creative juices juicing." Misfits and Justin Timberlake are on the set list. It's a reggae medley sound with acoustic assistance. Check Jacob's page for more info about the FistMits :)


    Like every feature in the Rolling Stone or Vogue, the people are always wanting to know what clothes and designers are being worn by the artist.  Jacob wears DKNY and B.C Ethics. Saying, "Usually I support the band and not the brand when it comes to my shirts."  
   It's the cologne that Jacob is a snob about. Lacoste Elegance, and Givenchy Play are his cravings right now. 
   And the classic Ralph Lauren or Versace glasses only add to the creative and truly awesome friend of mine that is Jacob Slann.


Thanks Jacob for following me on this blogging journey.
