David Rees sharpening my pencil at JoCo Cruise Crazy

As part of the JoCo Cruise Crazy (http://jococruisecrazy.com/) goodie bag, each sea monkey received a number 2 pencil and a voucher to get it sharpened by artisanal pencil sharpener David Rees (http://www.artisanalpencilsharpening.com/) I was the third person to use my voucher, during the exclusive first night cocktail party for the first 250 people to sign up for the cruise. I filmed the entire experience so you can see the artisan at work.

Well now I feel cheated. You can be sure I'll be lodging a complaint with the Board of Artisanal Pencil Sharpeners.

@burnumd You do that. :) Maybe he was more permissive because it was the exclusive cocktail for the first 250 people, so we could take exclusive videos of pencil sharpening.

This looks like it was taken surreptitiously. David told me "still pictures only."

@burnumd He could see that I was filming, and you can hear at the end of the video that I asked if it was okay to put it on YouTube and he said it was. Maybe he changed his policy about that later in the cruise.

:D I was number 4 to get my pencil sharpened. And he used the cute piggy pencil sharpener for the first time on my pencil. ^^

Anyways, I remember seeing you guys and hearing a lot of this conversation. xD

Love David Rees; he is indeed awesome.
