  1. NCAA, NBA & NHL Swag...who's got a boat load?

    Just wondering about all the people that were geared up to print t-shirts and the myriad of assorted NCAA, NBA and NHL swag... Months of planning and going out on a financial limb to procure contracts and inventory, and now this. Any S101 member horror stories out there? I have to believe...
  2. Phonesoap...who's got one?

    So I picked up a like-new Phonesoap at our Salvation Army thrift store for $10 last summer and didn't give it much of a thought. Once cold and flu season hit, I dug it out of my file cabinet and put it to use occasionally. Now, it seems Phonesoap banner ads and popups are spamming me like a...
  3. 1 Tonne Gold Piece...awestruck, to say the least

    The face value of the piece doesn't jive with the value of the gold, but still pretty cool anyway. https://www.pinterest.com/pin/363876844871746924/?lp=true
  4. Label Making: Genius Level

    So I heard about this gal on one of Guy Raz's episodes of "How I built this". Her unique story is at the tail end of the episode for Panera Bread at: https://www.npr.org/podcasts/510313/how-i-built-this I love this kind of stuff: https://candoable.co/ JB
  5. Now that you're done blowing leaves...

    Clean out your foam core bin and go have some fun. JB
  6. How about this idea...?

    I'm thinking of using this idea to present my price points. Nobody wants to take the ugly girl/guy to the prom, eh? But then again, there might too much hagglin' over who's the beholder of the beauty....me or them. JB
  7. Weighted Blanket...who uses one?

    I remember as a wee lad how my granny always used to stack a healthy pile of hand-knit heavy afghans on us when we stayed overnight at her house long ago. I also remember enjoying how it felt, and waking up feeling well-rested. Well, what was once old is new again. I see weighted blankets on...
  8. Christmas Carol Overload Yet?

    It's only November 2nd and I spent three hours helping a friend with her retail establishment's Christmas open house today. I'm done... No more... If I'm forced to listen to one more Christmas carol...I'm going to...BECOME RUSSIAN! JB
  9. When optical illusions tinker with your brain

    When your brain gets involved with an optical illusion and refuses to allow you to see it any other way. This is way cool.
  10. When art comes to dinner...and your sock drawer

    If you seek inspiration, look at the packaging industry. It's practically an unlimited training course in the world of art and design. https://thedieline.com/blog/2019/10/24/lrxd-has-us-craving-all-the-smoked-fishes...
  11. So, who else.....?

    Is just discovering 8D music on Youtube for the first time? Unbelievable.... Done correctly, it's more than just messin' with the balance. For the uninitiated, please don your headphones.... JB
  12. Are you feeling bogged down by sign work? Then....

    Watch this bit of inspiration. It's a totally different genre, but if you're truly a creative, then you'll love it. I'd do it in a heartbeat if I didn't have to move to NYC. JB
  13. Un-Boxing Experience: Are you using it?

    Google the term and be prepared to invest a few well-spent hours in rapt attention about un-wrapping. Yeah, I've seen a lot of hype on YT about people's experiences, but I never gave it much thought until I bought a razor from Harry's. After that experience, I thought back on several online...
  14. When your logo needs a pinch runner

    When you wish to break tradition and use something other than your business logo to watermark a photo https://photologo.co The artistic "human element" surely shines through. It's obviously not for every situation. But they really do some nice looking work. Can you say "Wacom Envy"? JB
  15. For you sporting types...

    Son-in-law just notified me that these really do exist. I had to check it out for myself. Oh, man...I need to invent something just as cool as this. Hang around the home page for a few minutes....you'll see what I mean. https://www.bugasalt.com/ JB
  16. Junk

    About a month ago, I had an 8-yard roll-off dumpster hauled in so I could do a major purging of the miscellaneous "useful" things I'd been holding on to for way too long. Before it arrived I was determined to be ruthless, and ruthless I was. It's amazing how even the slightest bit of clutter...
  17. Brick & Stone Engraving

    In an effort to "un-hijack" a previous thread, I am re-posting my reply to Andy D here. The original thread was about weeding vinyl...sorry about that AMGearhart...guess I got a bit carried away. Yes, they're sandblasted. Most of our paver bricks only have names on them so I've also included...
  18. That moment when...

    This little guy pretty much summarizes every emotion of wanting to go into business for yourself.... JB
  19. Building the Pyramids...

    Ok, so the question has rattled around in my head about the brute force labor that would have been required to build the pyramids: the pulling, the ramping, the lifting, etc... Why is it that we don't give the Egyptians a little more credit than that? I'd like to think they were a bit smarter...
