Pooh Atrocities

I did these a couple years back. I had a lady that worked with me that LOVED Winnie-the-Pooh. About once a week she would start her computer to a new desktop picture:

Magyar Telekom

I know many of you will assume this is something I made up, but this really is the logo T-Mobile uses in Hungary. Here is a link to the history of Magyar Telekom since the telephone system in Hungary was privatized in 1993.

New Store - Jedi Advisory

If you do a search on CafePress for the word “Jedi”, your search will come up empty, not a single entry. Considering the popularity of Star Wars, I find it hard to believe that no one in this great big internet has every tried to tag a Cafe Press design with the word.

Honestly, I could see using the tag “Jedi” on designs that have nothing to do with Star Wars just to bring searcher to my designs.

I assume that at some time in the past, George Lucas’s lawyers came a-calling and Cafe Press (wanting to stay in business) put “Jedi” at the top of the list of tags shopkeeppers are not allowed to use. I thought people should be warned. (By the way, I did not use the tag “jedi” myself otherwise, I am sure the store would be empty.)

"Random Spanish" Flair


I randomly speak SPANISH in daily conversation.

I created this Flair on Facebook.com because it was just too appropriate for my son, Connor. He is taking second year spanish in high school and is always inserting spanish words into daily conversation. I sent it to three people on October 26th. It is now being used by almost 1200 Facebook users. Due to its success I have also added it to my store at www.cafepress.com/dmag.

Election Day '08

This election is like an ice cream party!

Target Practice

Carpe Dulcis Diem

Latin Translation:
carpe - to pluck, seize, grab, lay hold of, hold on to
dulcis - sweet, pleasant, agreeable, delightful
diem - day
or
Have a Nice Day

I was looking into some latin translations when this idea struck me.
