Wordsmiths Local #101 Accepting New Members

So, I pulled the ol' vehicle in for a fill-up in Bellevue, Ohio, yesterday and was greeted to another treat for language-consumed folks like myself. Maybe there is a reason why gas was SO much less expensive here. Clearly there is either a shortage of wordsmiths in marketing/signage design departments, there are no proofreaders left in this world OR there is just a shortage of people who care about language, meaning, redundancy or the like. Unfortunately, I know the answer to that one, I just may not choose to accept it yet.
I'm adding this cause to my growing list that already contains adding last names for tropical storms and saving the art of the hand-written note by purchasing, writing and sending as many note cards as I physically can. Won't you put a little pen ink and brain power to these causes for me?
As a footnote for this...I really LOVE funny business signs and I have several photos I have taken through the years of signs that have nearly caused me to get in an accident when I saw them while driving. I will find some good ones and post them for you. If you have any of your own (unaltered photos only), please send them to me at amy@aha4creative.com with a story about where they are from and I will gladly post them here!

I'm really not much for blogging. I can't imagine that anyone would want to read about how my son forgot his Spiderman lunchbox this morning and I had to make an extra trip out to go deliver it to him so he didn't go hungry for the day, but from time to time I do find myself wanting to share something with all my website friends. For that I will use this "flog" page, or my faux blog as I had been calling it before I came up with this ridiculous new name. (Flog, incidentally, also means "promote or talk about something repetitively or at excessive length;" that definition seems somehow fitting.)

I can't tell you exactly how frequently I will post new things here, but whenever I come across something that I think might interest you in a creative, inspirational way (or something that makes me say "ooooh" or makes me laugh hysterically) I will post it here. Please feel free to drop me an email if there is something on here you'd like me to research further for everyone's benefit or if you have an idea for a topic.

Thank you for visiting and please check back often!
