[update: Charlie Sheen officially broke the Guiness Book of World Record's "fastest to 1M followers on Twitter" doing it in only 25 hours. Additionally, it's been reported that he's making $25,000 per tweet...that's $156 per letter. If I was getting paid the same rate, this blog post would be worth $722,000..#winning!] Have you been swept [...]

The Flash Fashion Show

Posted: February 23, 2011 in Hall of Fame Posts

Remember how I said we were planning on doing a flash fashion show (click to read WHY we did it..) in the middle of a crowded lecture hall on campus at CU? 20 Models, 11 camera men, 1 stylist, 1 professor, 1 store (The Buffalo Exchange), and 200 stunned students later – WE PULLED IT [...]

The live blog continues as you scroll down: a look inside the life of a Start-Up for a full 24hrs. Since the restaurant isn’t open yet a lot of people ask us what we do all day… So, we decided to start the first ever 24 hr Live Blog (with hourly updates) that will give [...]

In order to prevent some awkwardness (Phillip has discovered the blog), I’ve been handwriting my daily recaps, and now that enough time has passed, [...]

There we were, fall semester of our senior year, three handsome, young and cocky undergrads. The idea of Sabi was about 6 months old and we decided that it was time to stop talking about “bringing sushi to the masses” and actually see if we could roll some up for a group of friends. At [...]

Staying True

Posted: July 11, 2010 in Hall of Fame Posts

Today was one of the most productive and valuable days we’ve had in a long time. We split up and spread out across the city to stake out some key locations. For hours we sat and counted the number of people who walked by, the number of people eating at particular restaurants and the type [...]

99% (ok, 100%) of my dreams are about girls or money. Last night was a two-for-one special, I dreamt about Vegas. Now I love to gamble, but this dream wasn’t fun. I was standing at the Roulette table, watching the little white marble ball fly around the wheel.  In my hand was a $25,000 chip. [...]
