Ode to Man Soap



If you use our soap you will: smell like strong, so strong, Arnold Schwarzenegger strong!
start hunting, big game, small game, board games, you've got game!
you'll be good at sports, even sports you don't play. Badminton, Lacrosse, you even know kung fu!
you'll even be good at sports you've never heard of: hi-li is now your game!
you will smell like a man, what does a man smell like?
nature
football and Guns!
use our soap and you'll be fast, so fast, Usain bolt will eat your dust.

this soap will eliminate your tear ducts! 'cause men don't cry

you will get a reduced vocabulary, cause men shouldn't say things like equilibrium
and to remind you of all these things the bottle is a tank shell. Boom!

Updates

Hey Guys,
I thought you might like to see how a few of my projects turned out last quarter. The first is my final Tea Kettle design

The second is the simplicity spinal tap, which won best senior design and this poster won third place in a regional medical conference poster contest. GO TEAM!





Good things come to thoes who wait

Hey all,
Long time no post. But here we go, a juicy post to reward your patience. at right is my chair prototype. It is rough but the themes are rounded joints, smooth transitions from surface to surface, interesting negative space and movement (literal reason for runners). I welcome you thoughts. I got good feedback from class today and feel good about the direction I'm working in.


Also, here is my most updated portfolio. The first page of which is my teaser. Again any feedback you might have would be welcome.

And finally here is the process book from my groups work designing housewares (big ups to Aaron and Mike, my teammates). Enjoy.

Handwriting fonts


Hey guys,
From time to time one of the blogs I follow (instantshift) post something on free fonts. Today is one of those times. The only thing is, if you want the fonts you have to individually select all the links. Well, I did that and now I have all of the handwriting fonts from todays post. I made the folder into a ziped file and you guys can grab the whole collection here
I did this last week as well and here is a link to 104 other fonts.
some of theses will only work on windows as that is the download link I always choose, since I have a pc, but others will work on anything. 

Enjoy.

My Personal Bubble

 I guess I should start by saying I like my job at Hasbro And have been excited to work on a few interesting projects. There now that that is out of the way....

Look how small my desk is!

Measurements: 1 foot, Cintique, 1 foot
I am not in a small cube, I am at the end of the hall between two cubes. 
And the kicker is the office next to me is for a guy who works from home, he has been here like 3 times in my 5 weeks. 
I challenge you to show me a smaller working space.

On the plus side, yes those two nerf swords are mine.

Thank God Uconn lost

I must preface this by saying I love the Bearcats and the Badgers and through them, love the Big East and the Big Ten. But I hate Hasheem Thabeet. He is a tall, Annoying wimp.
In his article this week Rick Reilly, A man who I consider to be the best, most funny, most interesting sportswriter on the face of the planet, sings the praises of Thabeet. check it
All he can seem to come up with is that Thabeet returns phone calls, smiles alot, and has at many times in his life has run from trouble, while being overly emotional. Shame on you rick, you are better than that, I expect more.

Anyway, thank you MSU. No moreUconn, No more Thabeet. Now lets finish the job and bring the national title to the Big Ten. Represent
