Help with business name :-)

So, I am not too happy with where healthcare has been going. I am going to start a couple new businesses. For some reason, I like to make electronics and design fun gadgets. I dont know how far this will go....but I really enjoy it. I have 4 products that I have invented, produced, and tested.

 

I usually get a fucked up idea, read microchip datasheets, and then start testing circuits and programming assembly and testing in the bread board. Once that works, I will design the circuit on a PCB program and then test the actual board. I am about ready to sell!

 

Right now, I am having the cases designed and milled from aluminum. I want to have an emblem or name carved into the products...but I cant decide on a name. I need inspiration.

 

Here is the funny thing....There are a lot of Amish people in my area. To my surprise, many of them are starting to have electronic devices that are under 12V. Their theory is that God provides sunlight, and therefore solar panels are fine. So, I have a couple new ideas to target that group. Most of my products are not related to the next.

 

So.....I thought of something funny like

 

Buggy Whip Electronics

 

and....I thought of some sophisticated names.....but they are all taken!

 

Throw me some names so I can get some ideas! I already thought of the name Big Dick Electronics....so that wont work.

Just a small sin gadgets.

I like the first two! I think you hit the nail on the head.

On a side note: how is it living in an area with Amish people, is there interaction between 'normal' people and them?

Well, I have a farm and needed a bunch of fence done. I heard of an Amish fence builder named Eli. He was a lot better quality, and a better value than anyone. So, I used him. They are awesome.

 

Over the past few years, I have gotten to know him well. When they are alone, they speak dutch, but always go back to english when a city person walks up to the conversation. They are very respectful. Its a little different than a group of mexicans that sit and crack jokes / laugh around the jobsite. Amish people are serious, and get the work done.

 

My amish friend has an open Amish farm so people can come see their lifestyle and learn about how things work. They want to teach people to work hard, provide the essentials, and keep life simple to spend quality time with family.

 

He always has 1 menonite employee that drives him to the jobs. He has a phone, but it is in his barn. He can use a cell phone and even "own" one if the bill is in another persons (usually menonite) name. Some of his kids are menonite now that they are grown. Some of his teenagers have phones. I dont know how they charge them. They dont have outlets, so it may be at the amish restaurant they work at. They dont have AC. They have gas heat. They have a refrigerator that runs off gas. They have well water that runs off a gas pump. The only lighting is a gas, and it is extremely bright.

 

When he is in town, I take him to lunch and try to push the limit on their experience. I will take them to a Japanese steakhouse or to an Indian restaurant. They usually like everything, but there is sometimes one young one that gets a little freaked. They had the believe that asian people cook cats at the restaurants. They are really concerned about homeless people. They mainly think that they are a lazy nuisance and that they have no care for the value of their own life.

 

When I bought my current place (37 acres of trees), I was walking around and found a FleshLight on the ground. I did not know what it was, so I unscrewed the top. Nothing was in it. I looked it up on the internet and found out real fast what it was. Well, Eli had his crew out there working and they picked it up and asked what it was. I told him a rubber vagina used to be in there. He did not know what the hell I was talking about. He put it down and said he didnt want to know about that. Well, I had some mexicans working out there a few weeks later. It went missing. So, I imagine some mexican is out there doing yard work and using a flesh light as a canteen. :-)

 

 

LOL at the FlieshLight story. Have you tried giving Eli a ride in the Murcie?
