WHY didn't i know about THESE guys?

http://www.metrosexualmovers.com/

make sure your speakers are on.

brilliant.

and based out of the boston area.
my next move is going to be FABULOUS.

heres an excerpt form an interview i found in the boston globe with the man who started MM, joe laRoche:

Q. Define a "Metrosexual Mover."

A. Well, let's define a "metrosexual." We know what a mover is. Frankly, metrosexuals have gotten a bad rap. There's nothing that mandates they have to be frivolous and lack substance. The only definitive thing one can say about a metrosexual is that he is a heterosexual male, not intimidated by subjects culturally associated with and embraced by women. So it's an additive thing: increased sensitivity, more skills, in a broader range of areas.

Q. Do you think your company name puts some people off?

A. The name functions exactly as it was designed to function. People who like it will like me and like our service. People who don't can throw darts at the phonebook.

Q. How has your stand-up comic experience come in handy in your latest venture?

A. People will usually cut you some slack when you drop their Faberge egg collection down a flight of stairs if you can make a witty, off-the-cuff comment like "Well, it looks like your grandkids are going to have to work for their college tuition!"

Q. What are your rates like?

A. You know what they say: "If you have to ask . . ."

Q. OK, fine. Then how's your hair?

A. It's real, and it's spectacular!

OMG! i want to hire Vance! that move would have been sooooo much more entertaining if we had added these guys in the mix! although i am certain that they would have been even more appalled by the eggplant wall than we were...
