Well I usually get comments of praise or intrest for my goatee, but according to this scale (pointed out to me by Benjamin Spell), I am questionable. It is actually borderline un-savory! Well I don’t think I am unsavory! But then again I find most hipsters unsavory and many people still like them and their skinny jeans. Can’t get rid of the goatee now…it is part of my branding!
You gotta love how Apple strives to show that they are on both ends of the spectrum. You can find “the evolution of the Apple ad” on Webdesigner Depot. This ad is from 1996 and is one of a series of Powerbook ads here.
I don’t know how many times I have heard some of these same phrases. My favorite is “I am not really making any money off of this either.” It is always amazing how people are willing to pay the price on the sign at McDonald’s but when it comes to service industries they try and get it for free. Enjoy!
I whisked my lovely wife away for a Valentine’s get away in Sugarland, TX (just southwest of Houston) this weekend and we both had a fabulous time. One of the highlights was the continental breakfast in the hotel lobby included a Texas shaped waffle maker. I was so impressed I just had to forward it on. Texan pride runs deep even in the waffle maker!
