We’ll never forget Uncle Rico’s reaction to Deb’s careful coaching at his photo shoot, or the painful aftereffects of attempted time travel. Kip taught us that the internet can bring the unlikeliest of people together and form enduring relationships. Never again will we underestimate what a few dance moves can do to put an unlikely candidate into office. How do you summarize the effect Napoleon Dynamite has had on the world? Well … you can’t. Some works are so … all-encompassing, that we don’t even make the attempt.

At CPS, our respect for this film and the lessons it teaches us has inspired us to make it the feature of April’s calendar. In Tuboleon Dynamite we feature our IT Director Matt as Tuboleon (he’s the professor in our “What is Plastic?” series), C-Team Agent Lorna (the Mad Chatter in The C-Team video) as Deb, Designer Michael as Pedro and CEO Jeff as Kip, oh, and my hand holding a pencil, plus a few of my Tuboleon-esque sketches of tubs with liger stripes.

Put Tuboleon on a tub lid, Pedro in a liger-striped tub with handle, Deb in to kiddie-pool shaped tub, and Kip in a bucket/tub with cherub wings, place it on a canvas of hand sketched tubs on a path leading off into the horizon and BOOM! You’ve got … Tuboleon Dynamite.
