JANZO

Today is an especially sad post. Many years ago Jan came up with the idea for a Tauntaun Sleeping Bag. Remember Empire Strikes back? Jan always joked on freezing days that he'd love to slit open a Tauntaun and climb inside for warmth. It's an awesome joke and he loved to tell it. Those words will likely never cross his lips again.

Introducing, the Tauntaun Sleeping Bag.

This thing comes complete will saddle, intestines, embroidered head pillow, 100% polyester, machine washable and even has a glowing light sabre zipper to illustrate how you slice open the belly to gain entry. It's actually an April Fool's joke, but that doesn't matter. Jan can't bandwagon onto this thing now. It's too late. His heart, like his dream, is dead.

Yesterday Jan was the happy-go-lucky bachelor wearing a bedsheet with a headhole cut in the middle instead of clothes. Today he's become that guy who patented the phone ten minutes after Alexander Graham Bell; that guy who's name no one remembers. Well we're keeping Jan's name alive here: the true inventor, but too-lazy-to-get-to-market-first-guy, of the Tauntaun Sleeping Bag.
