eben inc wins a best of alabaster!

By alex eben meyer | Published: December 21, 2010

wow, i have to believe this good fortune is somehow related to the winter solstice or the lunar eclipse. i woke up this morning with some very exciting news:

“Eben Inc has been selected as the 2010 Best of Alabaster Award winner in the Automobile Tires & Tubes category by the US Commerce Association.”

i’d like to thank my mom, my dad, my entire family. all the people out there who have supported me. oh yeah, the man above, the man below, and that guy over there. ao, i couldn’t have done it without you. babe, this is for you.
