Marcus and I have always talked about getting bumper or window stickers printed and possibly selling them. I was hoping to get them done back when I was working at the screen printer since I could get a discount through any one of our vendors, but the company went out of business before I had the chance.
There's a site online called 1-800 Stickers where I can get custom stickers printed for an extremely reasonable price. With only a minimum order of 250 stickers, we could probably swing that in the near future. There was a wide variety of sizes and shapes available. Being a graphic designer, I liked the detailed artwork submission guidelines they provide. It's definitely a mark of a reputable printing company. They also offer free design services for those with great ideas, but lacking design talent.
For those in the printing know, they print the stickers on durable vinyl with light-fast inks and a UV-resistant coating, meaning they'll last, even outside. They won't crack, bubble or fade. They're also printed at 150 line screen — that's photo quality. They also have 1-2 color and full color labels available, which I could probably put to use once I get my embroidery business off the ground.
Is last night's episode of Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip the last one I'll ever see? I can't seem to find a good answer.
Next week The Black Donnellys will premiere a week earlier than expected in the slot that held Studio 60. I'm kind of bummed, but apparently I'm one of the few that actually likes the show. Maybe it is the crush I have on Matthew Perry clouding my judgment. I do hope they find a new home in the schedule (preferably one that doesn't conflict with something else I watch or maybe earlier in the evening), but I definitely know it will not be back next season.
Leave it to NBC to put a decent show in a totally wrong time slot to doom it to failure. Studio 60 is definitely not the best choice to follow up Heroes. They have two totally different audiences and it sits opposite CSI: Miami. If NBC didn't have episodes available to watch online, I'd have never seen Studio 60 at all since it's on past my bedtime and CSI gets the precious recording slot on my PVR.
On a related note, since I'm now watching Gilmore Girls, I read some rumors about GG possibly continuing. Man, I hope that's not true. If they pull a 7th Heaven on this series, I'm going to be upset. It's really time to end this one.
I totally meant to post this last December and it totally slipped my mind until tonight when they replayed the Saturday Night Live episode that had Justin Timberlake as the guest/musical guest. That episode was the best SNL episode I've seen in a long time. In fact, I downloaded it from iTunes, I liked it so much. Justin is really talented and I love how he can make fun of himself. Marcus really liked the "Homelessville" sketch (I can't find it anymore to link to it-it's been removed) and quotes the danged thing all the time. The following one was my favorite (WARNING: the following video is adult content/may not be safe for work):
I have been doing a lot of web wandering the last couple of days. I don't know how I came across it, but I saw this really cool Simpsons drawing that was posted on deviantART (an online art community if you're not familiar with it):
*spacecoyote was offered work with Bongo Comics owned and started by none other than Matt "Simpsons" Groening. She will be doing pencil work for a short manga style version of the Simpsons and on top of that has been contacted by 20th Century Fox to potentially work on the upcoming relaunch of Futurama!
How freakin' awesome is that?
Here's the original work the artist based the drawing on:
