OVERLAND JOURNAL AND EXPEDITION PORTAL ANNOUNCE
OVERLAND INTERNATIONAL INC.


New Company Will Efficiently Deliver Content to Growing Segment


Prescott, AZ, 2012-1-23 — Overland Journal, the leading publication of the overland travel community, and Expedition Portal, the popular online international community of Explorers, Adventurers, and Overland Travelers, have merged to create Overland International Inc.

CEO Scott Brady announced today, “Overland Journal and Expedition Portal have each been recognized as leaders in the Overland and Expedition Media space. The formation of Overland International Inc. will allow both entities to more efficiently share resources and continue to produce the highest quality content. It also allows us to apply the creative talents of Executive Editor Chris Collard, CTO Christian Pelletier, and President and Director of Design Stephanie Brady, to both brands.”

Added newly appointed COO Ray Hyland, “The Expedition Portal and Overland Journal brands will remain distinct and the properties themselves will not change. We have seen an increasing overlap in our customers and clients in recent years and by combining the corporate structures of the two companies into a single entity, we will be better able to serve them.”

“With the steady growth of both properties over the last five years, our customers now include several multi-national companies and this makes it easier for them to work with us to create complex, multi-discipline promotions and media-buys” mentioned Business Development Director Brian McVickers.

Great news and congratulations.

In keeping with the enterprise's desire to look towards the future while paying homage to it's origins, may I recommend a new logo?

That thing needs a roof-rack, high-lift on the back, and a HUGE awning on the side of it.

And before I forget, do we have any members who are fencing or Kendo experts?

I need someone to show me how to swing my titanium wiffle-ball bat like a lightsaber...

[molar suck] That looks way too much like a rock crawler Ray...

I'm thinking this is more in keeping with the majority demand... the Overland International Land Barge!

Has all your requirements covered... plus you have recent seat-time in a Toyota 80-series Land Barge so licensing isn't an issue.

Say, I'm thinking... would you guys just like to start a tab?

OK, that is awesome. I don't know how we'll top that one.

I've studied Kendo, have a black belt in Haidong Gundo (Korean Sword) and was a former Master of the Sword in the Liechtenauer Schoola of European martial arts. I'm a bit chubbier than I use to be, and have a few more aches and pains than my younger self but can be easily turned to the dark side for some scenic trips and tasty food in exchange for your training young Sith lord. Just as long as I don't end up as a floating blue spectre.

Follow this thread for the adventures of Obiwan Haggis and his young Padawan Ray, while training in the desolate wastelands of Prescott Valley.

Will he be able to resist the temptations of the dark-side and the power of Darth Brady?

Stay tuned....

I can't believe we haven't seen any decals for sale yet with the new company's name on them :).

You are confused. That's the C. American regional headquarters for the OI empire in Guatemala. Underneath that pyramid is a 30 story underground complex. It is commanded by General Jackson and his elite recon brigade, NLX. I have a press pass to visit next month..but only the top 3 floors.

I was going to try to add to the funny stuff in the thread, but I fear that my contributions would fall short. :coffeedrink:

Congrats, y'all!
