DDC vs. ADOBE INTERNAL, WEEK 2 - "Gone For Good."

May 05, 2010

TRYING TO KEEP MY COMPOSURE: So a couple days back, in a moment of sorta-leisurely downtime, I came across this little nugget. I guess Continental and United Airlines are merging, and man, what an opportunity to regenerate, and start the thing up with some incredible, progressive airline identity to carry us all into the future, right? I was so excited to see what they'd come up with.Well, that ain't the case. Check out how these turds "solved this one."Mr. Bass, we're sorry as hell.I'm gonna miss that United tulip. Gone. Just like that. Wings snipped. Fuckers. My heart is broken, yet again. Just thinking about having to look at that shitfuck hybrid logo while stuck in an airport somewhere just makes me want to spit. That's how we feel about it.- - - -WHAT WE'RE DOING TONIGHT: After our so-called "workday" is finished, we're off to PSU for the "Be Honest" portfolio review. We'll be offering up loose advice and general conversation. We've got some stern words for those little pups. Get ready!And once the review is done, Jessica Hische is going to talk to the whole group about who she is and what she does. Namely, "type talk" we'd bet. Good stuff out of that girl. Big night out, Portland design community.- - - -WE LIKE THE SOUND OF THIS ONE: One Car Jam. This guy is living out of his car for the next three months, and will be writing all about it. We dig this kind of adventure. In fact, we're jealous as hell over the whole thing. Good luck out there, brother! (Sent in by Chicago's very own Steve Delahoyde.)- - - -BACK IN MINNEAPOLIS, ONE MAN ALONE COMMANDS THE THRIFT STORES: Justin Peddycoart's "Things I Found At The Thrift Store" live action blog. Great stuff going on here. Smells like weird detergent, with wax crayon all over it. All sales final.- - - -WALK WITH US: Here's a little visit to an incredible toy museum in the U.K. So much cool shit to check out in there. (Offered up by Ireland's Alan Wall. Thanks, man!)- - - -ON THE PLAYER:01. The Hold Steady - Heaven Is Whenever02. Sweet Apple - Love & Desperation03. Monotonix - Where Were You When It Happened?
