Fire-Breathing Dragon

Saw this billboard along the highway. No comment on the religious aspect, but it must be nice to invent a version of history for profit. A traditional museum couldn't get away with presenting a fire-breathing dinosaur as reality. It's not extinct, but living in the eternal flames of hell.


I have to hand it to the designers at the Creation Museum--they do some good work. The graphic is reminiscent of vintage sideshow and circus promotions. Enough said.

Notepad Resumes


I spent a lot of time getting my resume and cover letter format to a point where I was happy with the design, layout, and content. However, it seems like a lot of design positions lately have been of the upload variety that convert the resume to a simple text document like Notepad. Plus, it incorrectly reads my InDesign PDF, so I have to retype it anyways. It defeats the purpose of trying to stand out in the design field with a well-recieved resume. See my previous spoof for Notepad Business Cards...

MADDER MAD MEN

MADDER MAD MEN

Yes, we have a Mad Men-like atmosphere here in the design room--alcohol (although cheap wine), firing clients, a dog running wild, design, and drama.

New Touchdown Jesus Rendering

New Touchdown Jesus Rendering

The "Touchdown Jesus" statue in Ohio was engulfed in flames, and burned to the ground after a lightning strike in June 2010. The six-story-tall depiction of Jesus Christ with his arms raised stood in front of Solid Rock Church along Interstate 75 in Monroe, just north of Cincinnati.

An artist has now released a rendering of how the new statue may appear. It would be titled, "Touchdown Tebow." I'm indifferent with Tim Tebow, although I believe his NFL career at this point is slightly overrated. We'll wait and see how his entire career unfolds, but every one around him in the Denver Bronco's organization deserves some credit for their turn-around this year. However, this statue is a lot of praise dedicated to an individual man, and may be overdoing it a bit.

Netflix Price Increase

Netflix Price Increase

Rabble, rabble, rabble...

Nobody likes price increases. Gas prices keep taking a hike. Cell phone bills are outrageous. Restaurants increase the prices on their menu. It seems my DirecTV bill has continually grown more expensive, and I get less of the channels I'd prefer to watch. Etc. Etc. Et Cetera.

Really in the scheme of things, Netflix raising prices of their all-inclusive DVD and streaming service from $9.99 to $7.99+7.99 isn't all that bad considering I used to pay over $5 for a few day rental from BLOCKBUSTER years ago.

As a customer, I'm not happy considering I am not getting more streaming movie options, but I understand their move from a business perspective. If another company has better prices for the services Netflix offers then maybe that company will do to Netflix what it did to BLOCKBUSTER. However, the reality is Netflix has a fairly good grasp on the market for the time-being.

I'll probably cancel my service just because I rarely use Netflix. I think I have had the same DVD out for 6 months now, and I don't stream enough to justify the price hike. However, true movie lovers shouldn't have anything to complain about. Whatever, whatever.
