It’s stupid to complain about it because it is, in fact, winter but DANG it’s cold! And DANG I hate brand names plastered all over my clothing!(those two topics may seem unrelated, but they are not, I assure you)
On another seemingly unrelated (but not) note: I loves me some Play-Doh! Why aren’t more artists working in this medium? It’s easy to sculpt, comes in rad colors, dries quickly and is 89 cents for a four-pack at Target! Kindergarteners don’t know how good they got it!

Thats the same way I am, I always cut labels off of the pockets of my jeans after I buy them, but my shirts usually represent music i support, so I don’t mind so much on my shirts.

word.
I did the same thing with a brown guess Tshirt i had once upon a time. I even went and got a brown sharpie for the occasion. Worked masterfully.
I think you left a comment on our show a while back, and I accidentally deleted it in a spam-killing frenzy. Deepest appologies fair lady, it won’t happen again.

Brand hacking.
Ryanne and I always debrand the bags we get at tech conferences. Can you export out the CC video by itself? Once it’s uploaded, we can start making a repository of custom CC videos. smart.

What video editing software do you use?

Right on. They can have my body for advertising when they pry it from my cold, dead hand. Wait - no, that’s my gun they can have then.
I suppose after I die if someone wants to tattoo a corporate logo or slogan on me and parade me naked through the streets that would be okay.
Until then, I am with you. I do not exist to be used as a corporate billboard.

couldn’t agree more on the label thing - i too have spent many a minute trying to cut off nasty bits of labels - sometimes with the unfortunate result that i cut into the actual article of clothing… wah wah wah… it sorta makes me sad when i see people wearing big brand names on clothes…

I know what you mean about logos, I am the same way now. I don’t want to walk around advertising anything!
I do have a Google, Firefox and Blogger tshirt I’ll wear but besides them I try not to wear any (and a couple band shirts).
I have a pair of Nike shoes I got but can’t walk around with the logo anymore, looking into the Nike sweatshops and things, I’m kind of supporting outsourcing on my shoe everywhere I go. I’m trying to get it off and and find some U.S. made shoes (the only ones I think even anymore are New Balances, only some are made in the U.S.).
I’m sorry about my lack of comments lately, I have been so behind with videoblogs and posting. Nice new layout, too :]

Not as interesting to the readers maybe but it’s Memorial Day Weekend. If you’re waving the US National flag, I don’t know if you know that there are some guidelines to adhere to. I learned about it at a USMC Veterans web site –
