Drink 2 or 3 cups of coffee a day? You might live longer - especially if it's ground, study says

My thanks to Onyx Consulting of Decatur for rescuing my 8 year old MacBook Pro from disaster. The battery swelled like a bad prostate (yeah, I said it!), keeping it from laying flat on a table, and interrupting the trackpad in the process. A real potential fire hazard. Charles and team got it turned around within hours, and battery replacement cost about 20% of a new machine. It’s been a workhorse, and I wasn’t ready to send it off to the glue factory. I can’t recommend them highly enough!

Lidl takes Tesco to court over claims it ripped off logo - Retail Gazette

I’d love to be the judge this case appears before. Needless to say, at first glance it would NOT go well for Lidl.

Lidl takes Tesco to court over claims it ripped off logo - Retail Gazette Lidl will take Tesco to court as it claims the UK’s largest supermarket has ripped off its trademarked logo to promote its Clubcard Prices.

I do love swag! We made these in ‘95 or so, and it’s still highlighting!

Or not. Don’t waste too much time competing. Maybe just a little bit🤔

I’ve been working with for many a moon, and our latest collaboration really pops!

He was right. For those who kept me caffeinated prior to the initial pandemic… .coffeebars

Pretty simple: if you can’t explain it, lose it!

Design is a collaboration. Trust in the designer is a big plus, and “that client” is rarely worth the time. They invariably will need more handholding, too.

…As the old expression goes. You’ll learn more from the unsuccessful events than you will from the victories.

Let’s face it: creatives DO see things a bit differently. And for a science guy, Einstein had a very creative mind.

I think we’ve all been guilty of this one. Again, Mr. Do is correct. Don’t get in your own way!

Proud to show the logo and wordmark for Mickey Latz’s newest venture, HOA Taxes & Compilations. A terrific client to work with, 18 years and counting!

Nobody is an expert the first time through. We learn, we grow…we improve. Further, expand your knowledge by pursuing new creative endeavors.

This reminded me of Eisenhower’s comment that plans can change but that not planning is a recipe for disaster. I’m paraphrasing.

Don’t put limitations on yourself: do some research, educate yourself, and the design will reveal itself.

In strange times like these, it doesn’t always come easy. Just a gentle reminder to be open to what’s out there still.

For those who kept me caffeinated prior to the initial pandemic…

I like this thought, and it applies to most, if not all, creative endeavors.

Not now, not ever!

Quotable Bruce Lee to end the year. Not specifically a design quote, but pertinent as we turn the odometer over into 2022. Discover what is important (and what is not) and incorporate it into your life and routine.

DR+! For those who kept me caffeinated prior to the pandemic… .coffeebars

Not necessarily a quote about design, but it certainly can be. It definitely strikes a nerve.

For those who kept me caffeinated prior to the pandemic… .coffeebars Oh, and happy holidays!

I’m certainly not his biggest fan, but he’s spot on here: substance over style, lose the extraneous and focus on what’s important.

Eminently quotable, Vignelli nails it on vulgarity!

If only!😳😬😎 For those who kept me caffeinated during the pandemic… .coffeebars

Similarly, if everybody likes what you’re producing, you’re really not pushing the boundaries.

In July of 2020, the office of France President, Emmanuel Macron, changed the flags at Élysée Palace, the official residence of the President, to feature a dark navy blue as it looked after the French revolution instead of the brighter blue instituted in 1976 to match the blue on the flag of Europe. While no one noticed the change for more than a year, someone just did and now it’s a thing.
Nobody noticed! And who knew the “old” flag was only 44?!
