[gmoney]

1. Reminds me of a project I had...

Hired a freelancer to help come up with logo concepts for a client whose name started with "Ra" and all the "ideas" I received were rip-offs of other company logos, most beginning with Ra... I got a Rawlings script version (sporting goods) and Ray-o-Vac (batteries) and a few others that slip my mind.

Last time I hired that freelancer...

Meanie!

[northzax]

I strongly urge you

to get a pen and write a story about Galileo's astronomical observations. If you're succesful, maybe you should flick open a pack of smokes and celebrate driving rings about everyone else.

[LynneSin]

54. Ok, I don't smoke so I have no idea about the cigerette clue

I tried Winstons - didn't work.

and isn't Galileo related to N?

[northzax]

58. oh, you're going to hate me when you get those...

such is my life.

yes, N and A are, in a manner of speaking related to each other, but only in nomenclature, not in production.

sorry about the smoking reference, had to come up with something quick, my boss walked by...that was a close shave...

[LynneSin]

68. Still not getting "A"

[northzax]

75. why don't you try googling some of them?

[Gay Green]

94. "E" is very elegant but not high-end like Tiffany's

Think of a national jewelry chain that is up the mall from Kay Jewelers.

[Gay Green]

(on edit: I don't have "l" and "Dial" is wrong!!!!!

[liss681]

112. need e, f, n, r

[Gay Green]

125. "E" is just up the mall from Kay Jewelers

and competes with them in the same jewelry "salez" bracket.

[liss681]

137. okay that does not help!!!

I thought it was de beers, but I was wrong

[Gay Green]

154. Think of "salez"

spelled backwards.

[liss681]

175. k, now i feel stupid! nt

[Gay Green]

128. And see Post 76 for "N"

[LeftyMom]

61. I wish all the brands were national

I have no idea that C in the second one is from the Chickfila logo, there isn't a Chickfila for a thousand miles, probably. Certainly I've never sen one.

[northzax]

64. there are only two

in the fourth edition that aren't international in scope, both are almost national in scope.

[LynneSin]

But I got that one now - 2 left! (f & r)

[LynneSin]

106. I don't know why I kept saying B
