I&#8217;d emailed the company telling them how much I liked their products.  They replied and asked if they could use my email in their catalog, and could I send a picture?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, if you know me, you know how I like to draw attention to myself.  But for some reason I did in fact send them a picture and I ended up on the cover of their catalog in 2014.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"397\" height=\"687\" src=\"http:\/\/chuckzumbrun.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Untitled.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8555\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chuckzumbrun.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Untitled.png 397w, https:\/\/chuckzumbrun.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Untitled-173x300.png 173w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 397px) 100vw, 397px\" \/><figcaption>Cover Boy<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Fast forward to 2023 and I&#8217;m reading Facebook and I see this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"880\" height=\"275\" src=\"http:\/\/chuckzumbrun.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Untitled-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8556\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chuckzumbrun.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Untitled-1.png 880w, https:\/\/chuckzumbrun.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Untitled-1-300x94.png 300w, https:\/\/chuckzumbrun.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Untitled-1-768x240.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 880px) 100vw, 880px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>What did Kansas Air Seeder Service do?  I dug a little deeper and it turns out the folks from Kansas Air Seeder Service are driving around with &#8220;14 Words&#8221; on the side of their pickups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was still in the dark. 14 Words? I looked that up and it&#8217;s a white supremacist slogan, &#8220;We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children.&#8221;  (Count &#8217;em, 14.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I immediately replied to this post on Facebook and told Exapta how proud I was, as a former cover boy, to be associated with them.  But I thought, sheesh, Exapta is going to get flamed on Facebook over this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But they didn&#8217;t.  There are 35 comments on their post, and all stand with Exapta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So many good people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>14 Words<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8554","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/chuckzumbrun.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8554","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/chuckzumbrun.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/chuckzumbrun.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chuckzumbrun.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chuckzumbrun.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=8554"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/chuckzumbrun.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8554\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9010,"href":"https:\/\/chuckzumbrun.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8554\/revisions\/9010"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/chuckzumbrun.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=8554"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chuckzumbrun.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=8554"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chuckzumbrun.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=8554"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
