I have no idea who the Monkeyholics are … but, I am sure that they will have the coolest tshirt at their event this weekend. Our client wanted a shirt that would pop and I think we delivered. It has to be some type of cool 4 wheel drive club with monster tires and such. Looks fun no matter what.
I have owned two jeeps in my lifetime, so far (wink wink), and I love the mud. Not a big fan of getting stuck. Here’s a story from my past. My first jeep was a CJ-5. Very short wheelbase, still had that body style from previous military model. We lived in Lufkin, Texas at the time … I was a youth minister … the guys in my youth group loved the red jeep as well. Living in the Pineywoods … lots of logging roads and the such near where we lived. Well, on Saturday morning … off I went exploring some trails, ruts, ravines, etc. I happened upon this cool creek … not too steep … should be a no brainer. I slowly pulled down into the creek at an angle and when I got to the bottom the front wheels began to go up while the back wheels continued to go down when all of a sudden I felt the entire body kind of twist … and pop … I did not have a clutch. Seems the deal that pushes in the pressure plates just popped out. I was stranded. No winch. Nothing. The really bad thing. I was suppose to sing in a wedding that afternoon. I was probably a good 5 miles from anything. (This was pre-cell phone days) and no one knew where I was.
I trekked out of the woods and honestly I can not recall how we got the jeep out and home … I was just trying to get to the wedding. I made it. I am sure some great friends helped in getting my jeep home.
The next weekend at our normal youth meeting my kids presented me with a brand new come-along. (come-along is like a winch you can use by hand) I still have that come-along to this day.
To continue an all ready super long post … I think I would like to try a Suzuki Samauri for a next project. I hear they are pretty fun.

Have you seen those banners that have the names of God on them like … Jehovah Shalom, The Lord our Peace or Jehovah Nissi, The Lord our Banner? I remember the first time I sat in church and saw some of those hand made banners … honestly I had never even studied “the names of God” until I was acquainted with the banners … and I was a bible student! It really made me dig and study all of the names of God … for myself. It was a lasting study and helpful in my personal prayer life. Well, the folks at

Every Designer knows that we live and die by the font. Nothing can be more frustrating and rewarding than finding the right font for the job. As with vector graphics … the professional designer will spend hundreds, yeah even thousands on quality fonts. Font farms like dafont have allowed typographers a great platform to express themselves with fonts. My background in typesetting was in offset printing. Back in the early 70’s there were not many choices on fonts to use. Producing them was left to the professional “type setter”. Can you imagine that there was such a job. Man, I was so excited when IBM came out with the selectric with interchangeable fonts! We have come a long, long way. Now we see anyone with a computer and a little time can come up with their own font. Well, it’s not ‘that’ easy … but a lot easier than what it used to be. Hand drawn fonts are coming into their own in recent months … I am not talking about hand written script fonts … but lettering like I used to do when I was a kid. Making my own custom font set. Here are my top ten hand drawn fonts that I love to use … for my own personal enjoyment. All of these are linked to dafont for you to see and download.
