Elevenish
Elevenish Issue 1 Vol. 1 Mike Ericksen Writer/Editor Hoooooray! This the first ever issue of the ELEVENISH MAGAZINE! Wooooo! I’m so excited! I’m using lots of “!” to stress my excitement. Their, I didn’t use one. Ha! This magazine won’t be published publicly, yet. I may scourge up some money and maybe publish an important issue of some sort like a holiday or summer edition. So go to Issue.com and search MikeEricksen, and you’ll find my issues… I might even scan some of my art and make it into a feature page or something cool like that… So you’re probably thinking how am I going to do this all by myself? I have no fricken idea! Anyway, this magazine will be published ever month or so, depending on how busy I am. It could take two months or two weeks, I don’t know. On the topic of publishing, that’s a different ball park, I don’t have the money! What would be great, if someone was a free publisher and want to publish for me publicly. Maybe that a little to broad… Please tell all your friends and then tell your friends to tell their friends! That’s your home work. Art one the front “Untitled” I just found this online, I searched everywhere for the maker, but nothing… Sorry!

An Organic Bike Written by Mike Ericksen As gas prices soar, people all over are starting to ride bike to school, work, local events, and so on… Since I ride bike to school I support anyone who rides a bike to any place. Even though gas prices have gone down, my insightful father told me that once president-elect Obama takes office, the gas prices will shoot up again. So I continue ride my bike to where ever I need to go, except Eau Clair or Chippewa Falls, then I get a ride. I went searching online for new bikes. What astonished me was that there are many start-up companies make “organic bikes”! That’s right organic! They manufacture them using bamboo and recycled steel. If you so wish to through you bike out, the bamboo would decompose and turn into nutrience for plants, and I guess the steel could anchor fungi! I think this is an ecological step forward in finding cleaner ways to transport ourselves. If you’d like to check out these bikes visit www.calfeedesign.com, go to Frame Models, and click on bamboo. Any entrepreneur looking for the next big thing should really look in to this industry. If we get Trek or Huffy to make a bamboo bike, they could become like, iPods, or cell phones. For now the like to new Amazon Kindles.
Thanksmas Written by Mike Ericksen On November 17th, I turned on the television and saw my first Christmas ad for the year. I was appalled. “It’s not even Thanksgiving! @#*&%$#!!!” My colorful language didn’t seem to work. More and more and more and more ads appeared every day! In my opinion, it should be against the law to run Christmas ads before Thanksgiving week. Or at least combine to two holidays, like Christgiving or Thanksmas. When I was watching 60 minutes with my dad the old guy who talks about whatever he wants agreed with my position. There is nothing I can do, stores need to run ads or they’ll ed up like Lehmen Bros.

That’s it? Well that’s it for now… It’s the first issue and I only had little to write about. I don’t have a crack staff of like ten people to write stories that I would maliciously edit it until it perfect now do I? So this is just like a perfume sample of what this magazine will become. This is my extensive grocery list of what I have to do to get this magazine up and running: • Get writers • Get designers • Get people to advertise the magazine • Get people to advertise in the magazine • Get an editor • Get a website up • Get a publisher • Get photographers • Get more ideas So you see I have lots of homework. Please tell everyone you know and then tell them to tell everyone they know. The reason I say this so much is because I’m super duper busy and I have little time to tell people about this, so I thought why not use the people as help! Man, do I need a vacation!
