"Soulutions for your every day life."

Remeber McGuiver? I used to love that show when I was a kid. That guy could make a bomb out of bubblegum and a coke can, and a four course meal out of a tube of colgate. At any rate he was what you might call resourcefull. The last few days I my self have had to get pretty creative. When my boss said "design is all about solutions" I took it to heart.

Let me give you a few examples.
1. The other night I was sick of having my clothes all over the place but I had no closet to speak of. So I grabbed the left over pvc pipe from the gelato cart's umbrella holder and some networking cable (which I cut with a steak knife) and decided I was going to hang it from the pipe on the ceiling. The only problem is that the pipe was fifteen feet in the air. Two folding chairs and a stool later I was tetering on a self induced pyramid of death. It was barely tall enough but I got the network cable over the pipe and viola I have a place to hang my hat and my ties and my shirts...

2. Being clean cut is an important part of the business world. A couple of days ago I had a meeting down town with a potential client. I needed a shave but the mirror in the bathroom is gone and I didn't have time to go across town to the gym. And so the witch hunt for shiney objects began. Cd -no, knife -no, napkin dispenser-no. meat tray-bingo, perfect. Clean cut and ready to go. And by the way I got the contract and johny gelato is going to be at the second largest fair in rochester. Oh yeah.

It's all about in-jew-nuity.
