Do they taste like turkey?


Okay, let's be honest. If Butterball sold terriers with little red pop-outs that tell me there cooked just right, and families had traditions of eating them with lots of gravy, mashed potatoes, stuffing, and finishing up with some pumpkin pie (and maybe a slice of the apple pie too) all while watching the Detroit Lions lose yet another football game on Thanksgiving day, we'll yeah, I probably would eat my dog.

Sorry, PETA.

Thank goodness for turkeys.

So Sad for Lots of Reasons...

This is sad...























Because this business is still a great concept with so much potential.

Because we just placed 12 logos in the latest Logo Lounge Book (up from 9 last year).

Because we just had a logo design featured in Communication Arts.

Because we just completed our 100,000th logo project (and almost 200,000 projects overall).

Because there are at least 5 groups who would like to make an offer for the business or assets. But the answer has been an emphatic "no."

Because more than 300 people over the last ten years worked hard to create a lasting business. And succeeded.

Because almost 70 people will have lost their jobs in the past 14 months.

Because we successfully changed the design world for the better.

But mostly, it's sad because we're profitable.
