I can’t take it. Hanging out with Chuck Anderson from the CSA Design Empire and Scott Thares from WINK? Punch me in the face. This was a HEAVY MOMENT. I mean, who do you look up to? Pick yer heroes wisely, you scrubs.

Eric Baker and I almost threw down. Instead, we hugged it out. Man, we love Eric Baker’s “morning blast” of awesome dead stuff. Been a fan for a long, long time! This guy would be good backup, in case a brawl broke out at that AIGA party!

My favorite Minneapolis designer will always be Todd Piper-Hauswirth. The best.

Finally got to meet THE Sharon Werner! Been a fan since those wild mid-90s!

LURKING AMONGST THE DESIGN HEAVIES: Tonight, Ryno and I went to a big AIGA party down town. There were a ton of design heavies there. You’ll see proof up above! Every time I turned around, there was another MONSTER OF THE DESIGN WORLD hanging out. So fun. Thank you for letting us in the door, Sharon!
