It's been a week since he's been on. Somebody needs to post a baby mama/drunk driving/possum hunting/get rich with cheap labor post soon, this place is losing some of it's color.

there's a name for the style of artwork Frank Fellers has on the cover of the latest catalog. I've been digging through magazines and books for an hour trying to find it and I'm coming up blank. In the shop we call it Ghetto Cowboy but I need to know the actual "formal" name. Any clue? Feel...

UPS ran really late today. I got in 5 4'x4' prints from two different vendors (10 prints total), they showed up right at 4:00. The customer who ordered them was coming by at 5:00 on his way out of town, if they were ready he was going to pick them up, if not I'd promised him I'd deliver them...

Had a customer running for a County Commission seat come in to order 20 pair of magnetics. All he had for the artwork he needed to match was one t-shirt left over from his last campaign. He didn't want to leave it so I scanned it while he waited. I pulled the scan into FlexiSign, set up the...

The first house I ever bought was a great little house. I worked on it constantly, laying tile, painting, refinishing hardwood floors, and building a deck. It was a small house in a neighborhood full of small, starter homes. Just an all around great place to live. Two years after moving in I...

Had a city maintenance guy come by today with a giant stack of signs they'd ordered for the playgrounds around the city. They'd ordered them from the company that builds the playground equipment so they'd gotten them pretty cheap. He was looking for somebody who could round all the corners for...

Yes, part three. Last summer I did four banners and 50 yard signs for a customer. I quoted the job, she loved the price and the layouts, she paid for the job and we went to work. Somewhere along the way it dawned on me that the price just didn't seem right. Turns out I'd quoted her the exact...

On the first day, God created the dog and said: 'Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. For this, I will give you a life span of twenty years.' The dog said: 'That's a long time to be barking. How about only ten years and I'll give you...

So, where does my responsibility to enforce somebody else's rights end? I've got an "ad agency" that routinely over the years has sent me artwork from istockphoto.com that they've just copied and cropped. Sometimes they have half-assed an attempt at Photoshopping out the watermark, sometimes...

How I missed this those two days it was at a theater somewhere in Iowa I'll never know but I ran across a copy of DEADLY PREY! That's right, critically acclaimed by the actors mothers DEADLY PREY! Consider a movie that set out to be the most action packed adventure film ever made, fill it with...

Emergency rush job for a long time customer. All cut vinyl....a little less than an hour from taking the order to her picking it up. Her instructions were "just plain block letters and a couple of stars, whatever is quick!"

Yesterday I got chewed out by a wanna-be sign guy who waited until the last minute to order his signs and tried to make it my fault that it wasn't going to happen. Today I get a guy from a new real estate company call me pissed off that I charged them installation for driving around for four...

So I signed up for stamps.com last January thinking it would be a good idea. For a few months there it worked great, I could just print postage for everything and send it out. Our mail route got changed, though, so instead of the mailman coming by at 4:00 so he could pick up that days shipping...

I was just wondering if anybody had heard from StickaSteve since that copyright blowup a couple of months ago. I see he hasn't been back here since then. I'm just curious how it all worked out. Hopefully he managed to find a solution that kept the copyright owner, the customer, and his...

I know this has been discussed before and I searched for it but the results were less than helpful. Does anyone have a supplier for double side wind feathers?

I'm really thinking today is gonna be Pad Khee Mao from the Thai place or Dandan Noodles from the Chinese place....or maybe, just maybe I'll ride over into the hood and buy a fried mullet sandwich from the guy that cooks and sells them on the sidewalk. I wish the old lady who used to sell ribs...

Anybody know a supplier for 4' and 5' plastic stakes for real estate signs? I've got a local supplier for the wooden ones but I'm coming up blank on the plastic ones. I'm not looking for something to stick in the coro flutes, I'm looking for a heavy duty stake to put between faces on...
