Life has become very busy. This space is for me to share my experiences, ramblings and quirkiness with anyone who cares to read them. I'd love to hear your thoughts, especially if you're someone I used to talk to a lot but have lost touch with. Enjoy!

Da Vinci Crap

Some of you may remember me talking about this a couple weeks ago. Some Toronto newspaper is upset because the art in the style guide my department created doesn't show all the full details of the Vitruvian man. And then one of our licencing partners decided to gloss over the "details" of the Vitruvian Man's willy a little more when creating t-shirts and other licensed goods (understandably). It was this whole issue here. But they wrote the article anyway.

The crap we deal with.

it's not crap. You Hollywood people are always trying to get out from facing the hard truth. If you can show a penis in a movie, you can put it on a hat.

It's not even the hollywood people trying not to put the penis on the hat. it's the hat makers and retailers that dont want the penis on the hat. and last i checked they almost NEVER have penises in movies. nice pun btw - "hard truth"

you obviously haven't seen "penises from outerspace." won some awards, i believe.

it's funny. though my job is crappy and i generally loathe it, i can honestly and quite happily report that we've never had a conflict over a penis -- especially not work-related penises.

ok, so there WAS that time at the christmas party...
