Yes, its true. We've stopped selling HA! HA! Guy Whiteboards. I hope you've enjoyed the Daily Quaker! and that it occasionally made you laugh. Posts may occasionally happen in the future but they will be far from daily. As a last hurrah, here's a look back at some of my favorite posts and pictures from this grand experiment.

A dissertation on reusable feminine pads. Bonus: some of the funniest comments on the blog. Be warned, it's nasty.

It's a trap!!!!

A classic.

A story about the corruption of the youth in America. The HA! HA! Guy made his way to hundreds of t-shirts worn by little kids.

More Thanksgiving!

Breaking News: HA! HA! Guy Origin Discovered

noreply@blogger.com (Michael Keeling) — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 20:28:00 +0000

Let's cut the bull. Some researchers on Fark recently discovered the actual origins and likely history of the HA! HA! Guy.

To date we knew that the HA! HA! Guy originated from a turn of the nineteenth century advertisement for Forbes' Insoluble Dry plates. We know that dry plates are used for photography and not a colonial slang term for dentures. Everything else you've ever heard about the HA! HA! Guy was either legend or made up purely for our own amusement.

New Information

Discovered in the depths of teh Interwebs was a Goodwill Auction for a painting of a "Midland Man 1874" that looked eerily similar to the HA! HA! Guy.

Decide for yourself:

The back of the painting reads "The man who resigned a Midland position in 1874 and got his pay"

A quick Internet search on Midland 1874 reveals that there was a Canadian railroad company, the Midland Railroad, that suffered severe financial troubles in 1874. Perhaps the HA! HA! Guy was a manager who pulled an 1874 Enron?

'Midland 1874' may also refer to a series of locomotives manufactured in England, a strip of track laid in the Western part of the United States, or possibly an Illinois railroad company that foreclosed that year.

This is epic. Not only do we have digital proof of this amazing, full color painting of the original HA! HA! Guy, but we have a another shred of evidence linking us to his origin.

The HA! HA! Guy is the Midland Man reincarnate.

Do you have more information? Email TDQ! because we want to know!

Brewing Some Beer

noreply@blogger.com (Michael Keeling) — Thu, 21 Aug 2008 19:17:00 +0000

Where's my 'Board?

noreply@blogger.com (Michael Keeling) — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 18:58:00 +0000

While we work to liquidate the few remaining whiteboards in our inventory we ask for your patience in the shipping process. Part of the reason we're liquidating is that we plan to close down shop by the end of the year. We're closing down shop because what was once a three-person endeavor is now just one and a half people. The founders of Tri-Corner Humor are now spread across the East Coast residing in different states from North Carolina to Pennsylvania. No matter what happens, if you order a HA! HA! Whiteboard we will send it to you and if you send us an email I will respond to it.

Thanks for the laughs and keep sending us your HA! HA! Guy pictures.

And keep ordering whiteboards. There is a limited time they will be available after all.

That beer's got Head!

So I went to brew some beer and decided to do my primary fermentation in a glass carboy. That must have been some really good yeast because it blew the top right of the carboy! I then transferred everything over to my trusty Ale Pail since there's a lot more space in the top of that than in the carboy. About 6 hours later the airlock got clogged and the top blew right off the bucket! This is the most intense primary fermentation I've ever seen.

Where can I get a hat like that?

noreply@blogger.com (Michael Keeling) — Mon, 18 Aug 2008 18:46:00 +0000

Dear Quaker,

Where can I get a dapper hat like yours? I've been looking for years!

Sincerely,
Not the Ha-Ha Guy

I've also heard you can find a dapper triconered hat at Amazon.

You got Your Hairs Cutted!!

noreply@blogger.com (Michael Keeling) — Wed, 23 Jul 2008 12:14:00 +0000

Me: Marie, could you trim these few stray hairs you missed yesterday when you trimmed my hair?

Marie: Sure!

Me: [hands trimmers to Marie, bends over for trim.]

Marie: [takes trimmers, flicks on, starts buzzing] Oh Noooooo!

Me: What?

Marie: I'm sorry. Well. I guess we have to buzz it all now!!

It's a HA! HA! Lawyer!!

Ruler of the HA! HA! Whiteboards

noreply@blogger.com (Michael Keeling) — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 10:13:00 +0000

I was an early prototype
but it was decided that I
was too big and allowed for too many
words thus defeating the wonderful, witty
brevity of the two line format and rendering
everything that is funny about the HA! HA! Guy to
not be quite as funny anymore!!!!

This early prototype, with HA! HA! Guy measuring in at over 8 inches tall, was just a little too overwhelming for our Beta testers to handle. Sure, it's awesome, but there was also something just a little wrong with the King Kong magnitude of everyone's favorite jolly Quaker guy.
