Thank you. I blame only myself for my poor formatting. As a shameless plug,

OK lets just get this all cleared up right now.
its Brickfête Enforcement Division. NOT porous security.
Look, If you play your cards right, the B.E.D. is always looking for a few
good.... umm,....
(cough)
Ok, Janey is about to authorize me to use Microsoft Office Publisher to make
B.E.D. badges. I am not very good at MS Publisher, So, Im thinking CONTEST!!!!
ya baby! Starting right now, I think I can “spill the beans” and announce a
Brickfête contest. The Brickfête Enforcement Division needs a logo to put on
there Badges. and with every contest there is going to be a PRIZE! (1)
Who could ever forget this:
http://news.lugnet.com/org/ca/rtltoronto/?n=15153
Well, in the Spirit of NQJ, the Prize for this contest could GROW to be big, but
I leave that up to you. That’s right, a real, slightly used 1x1 black tile.
RULES.
Design a logo for the Brickfête Enforcement Division suitable to be printed
Post your image anywhere on the net. And in true Democratic fashion, if i like
it, you win.

Chris

John,
Thank you for interest in Logo and Badge Design. I would like to express my
interest in the FANTASTIC first logo that was created, and will accept this 2nd
design but feel I should tell you that my vote is leaning towards version 1.0.

Oh dear, when you guys said fête, I thought you meant fet???
How embarrassing that could have been.
John, seriously dude, if you need a one by one black tiles, I’ll give you a bag
if you STOP producing logos for Chris. Especially ones with his face in it.

Um Janey?
You might want to ex-nay on the mocking me eh. If i can get “thee” John Neal to
work on Brickfete badges. Well, that would be quite a feather in our caps.
I heard a rumor that Mr. Neal was thinking, on planing, to think about firing up
his Adobe Photo shop and working on even more badges. Someone of his Caliber
can not be shut down.
I know this is shocking, but I say let the man create.

That’s not a peace sign, dummy; it’s a Vulcan hand gesture, meaning, “Live

Sir,
I will have you know I am a card carrying Libertarian. LESS government, not MORE
http://www.lp.org/
Have you, or have you ever been a member of the communist party?
Drat, I keep forgetting as a Canadian, I am not subject to those crazy American
laws and rules. Card? I don’t even carry a library card.
I do carry the Brickfete Enforcement Division badge, but its really just a blank
card with my name in crayon. I am waiting for a few more logo’s to decide, then
I will print off real badges. Heck maybe even a shirt.

Sir,
Have you ever been a member of... oh wait. wrong thread.
Dave,
How dare you, my friend Eugene and I go way back. “Gene” I would say, and he
would reply with “ya Chris” and Im like “Gene, we got to make a show”
“I’m sick of this shocking pinko crap they but on the boob tube”
“I know Chris, that stuff is commie crap”
“Eugene, but what would be different? I know, how about Aliens, and the future?
and women in tight dress’s and blue paint on the actors faces? We could do it
cheap”
“no, Chris, I was thinking more like a hard hitting news segment”
“gene, baby, your killing me. ok, look, picture this, Aliens, and a rocket
ship.... but ummm, make it TWO rocket ships, YA.... TWO”
THAT’S when the hottie Swede sisters Ali, (and her sister) came by, and I
spilled my tea, saucer and all. Then the idea hit. We put a “saucer” between
the two rockets.
“Chris your crazy” Thats what gene said to me a lot, Man, the Sarge was mean
sometimes. When me and Gene were on the LAPD force back in 1953 he made
sergeant, and I was still just a dumb beat cop. But I digress.
“No Gene, listen... these aliens are our friends, It could be like an alliance
of the worlds.”
“Chris, if you don’t shut your yap, and get me some more static cling for my
uniform I’m going to give you night shifts for the next 3 months!”
“Cling? cling.... cling... HOLD ON, thats its. the aliens can be called clings!”
“thats it, your on nights”
“%$^*&*) you Eugene”
And that was where we parted ways. But I’m not bitter.
NOPE.
not at all.
