While you try to decide between all of our great new colors, here is a great water joke and some quotes on water for you to enjoy:

*A man went to visit his 90 year old grandfather and while eating the breakfast of eggs and bacon prepared for him, he noticed a film-like substance on his plate. So he says, “Grandfather, are these plates clean?” His grandfather replies, “Those plates are as clean as cold water can get them, so go on and finish your meal.” That afternoon, while eating the hamburgers his grandfather made for lunch, he noticed many little black specks around the edge of his plate so again he asked, “Grandfather are you sure these plates are clean?” Without looking up from his burger, the grandfather says, “I told you those dishes are as clean as cold water can get them, now don’t ask me about it anymore.” Well, later that day, they were on their way out to get dinner. As he was leaving the house, grandfather’s dog who was lying on the floor started to growl and would not let him pass. “Grandfather, your dog won’t let me out.” Without diverting his attention from the football game he was watching, his grandfather shouted, “Coldwater, get out of the way!”

*Water, taken in moderation, cannot hurt anybody.
Mark Twain, US humorist, novelist, short story author, & wit (1835 – 1910)

*[Water is] the only drink for a wise man.
Henry David Thoreau, US Transcendentalist author (1817 – 1862)

Bombs Away!

Posted on July 9, 2008 by staff

A military cargo plane, flying over a populated area, suddenly loses power and starts to nose down. The pilot tries to pull up, but with all their cargo, the plane is too heavy. So he yells to the soldiers in back to throw things out to make the plane lighter. They throw out a pistol. “Throw out more!” shouts the pilot. So they throw out a rifle. “More!” he cries again. They heave out a missile, and the pilot regains control.
He pulls out of the dive and lands safely at an airport. They get into a jeep and drive off. Pretty soon they meet a boy on the side of the road who’s crying. They ask him why he’s crying and he says “A pistol hit me on the head!”
They drive more and meet another boy who’s crying even harder. Again they ask why and the boy says, “A rifle hit me on the head!”
They apologize and keep driving. They meet a boy on the sidewalk who’s laughing hysterically. They ask him, “Kid, what’s so funny?” The boy replies, “I sneezed and this abandoned house blew up!”

Flying a real airplane takes lots of training and experience, but with toy balsa airplanes, kids can fly them and have a blast; even a grown man can become a child again. They’re so fun the way the swoop and dive. And wouldn’t it be better if they had your custom logo on them? I think, “yes.”

So why not, we have foam, balsa wood, or pre-creased paper. Get you custom logo and information printed on the plane and give them away-with summer in full swing, these planes are a great idea of a promotional item to give out at town celebrations and parades.

We have little planes, space shuttles, flying saucers, giant planes with 2ft wingspans, even motor balsa planes. Get any one with your imprint on it.

Cultural Diversity

Posted on July 9, 2008 by staff

America was at one time called the Melting Pot, this of course referring to the diversity of the culture- all cultures are welcome to come in to America and live in this great land. Many years later anyone of any culture is free to practice that culture. But from time to time events occur where a certain culture is treated wrongly. When someone makes a comment or something happens then we’ve got problems. Celebrating our cultural diversity, as well as the many things which unite us cross-culturally is important for us to live peaceably. Orange is the awareness color for Cultural Diversity. By wearing an orange awareness pin you can help to spread the awareness regarding cultural diversity and show your support for that issue.

Cost of College

Posted on July 9, 2008 by staff

Did you hear about the banker who was recently arrested for embezzling $100,000 to pay for his daughter’s college education? As the policeman, who also had a daughter in college, was leading him away in handcuffs, he said to the banker, “I have just one question for you. Where were you going to get the rest of the money?”

College is expensive so why not give your incoming or outgoing students a gift that they will use?

Laundry sacks make nice gifts and at the same time will be functional.

Custom Printed laundry bags have become a popular senior class gift as well, either from the PTA, the High School itself, or the senior class money that the Seniors want to spend instead of letting the Juniors inherit it! Customize with “Class of” and your school mascot!

You can custom print the bags with the name of your college or university along with laundry tips for those poor freshman who have never had to face the sometimes daunting task of Laundry alone before!

 

For schools on a tighter budget, why not give out Highlighters customized with your school logo? Students will love having a highlighter with their school logo always handy in their backpacks! We offer many styles!

An “Attractive” Offer

Posted on July 8, 2008 by staff

The Merriam-Webster Dictionary describes magnets as something that attracts. Now, we all know what a magnet attracts: metal, right? But I bet you didn’t know they attract people’s attention as well. Yes, it’s true; put a magnet on your car, people will look at it. So if you give them out as advertisements, people will hang them on their fridges and will look at them often. We have magnets specially suited for any product; we even offer custom shaped die cut magnets so you can totally design yourself.

As an added bonus most of our magnets can be ordered as a 4 color process for the same price as a 1 color imprint.

Here’s how a magnet works from the fridge:

For example, you own a restaurant or pizza place and you want to advertise. You could order pizza shaped magnets or other food related magnets and get us to print your logo and info on them. Then, you are in a parade and give these away. People take them and put them on their fridges. And where do they look to get food when hunger strikes? That’s right, the fridge!
So say they want to order pizza, they look at the fridge and see your magnet with your number. They then say to themselves, “Hey, this looks good,” and they call you. And finally, you get the money.

…And that is a detailed explanation of how an advertising refrigerator magnet works. Check them out.

Magnets also work well in mass mailings as a marketing tool, since they are flat and very light. Send out a magnet along with your weekly advertising flier or with coupons to be redeemed at your restaurant; it’s a great way to get new customers in the door and remind past customers to stop in again!

Write it down

Posted on July 3, 2008 by Eric

A couple in their nineties is having problems remembering things, so they decide to the go the doctor for a checkup. The doctor tells them that they are physically okay, but they might want to start writing things down to help them remember.

Later that night, while watching TV, the old man gets up from his chair. His wife asks, “Where are you going?” “To the kitchen,” he replies. She asks, ” Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?” The husband says, “Sure.” She gently reminds him, “Don’t you think you should write it down so you can remember it?” He says, “No, I can remember that!”

She then says, “Well, I’d like some strawberries on top. You’d better write it down ’cause I know you’ll forget it.”

He says, “I can remember that! You want a bowl of ice cream with strawberries.”

She adds, “I’d also like whipped cream. Now I’m certain you’ll forget that, so you’d better write it down.”

Irritated, he says, “I don’t need to write it down! I can remember that! Ice cream with strawberries! And whipped cream!” He then grumbles into the kitchen.

After about 20 minutes the old man returns from the kitchen and hands his wife a plate of bacon and eggs.

She stares at the plate for a moment and says, “Where’s my toast?”
