Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach  

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

What kind of freedom have you with it?

They're open to suggestions but they can't break with the series design.

So it has to be that type size and font and it can't run vertically or diagonally.

I think Freddy Quimby should walk out of here a free hotel

I think that there'd be people interested in a book on Swordfishtrombones that wouldn't recognize that swordf/isht/rombo/nes ordered vertically on the cover is swordfishtrombones ordered vertically on a cover. Or maybe there isn't; what do I know?

David, I say Cover #2 no hyphen if you really can't get them to budge on the point size.

I think it is totally unreasonable that they won't let you knock the size down to make it fit. In fact, I am all irritated about it. That is what designers DO. I'm sorry, but your branding BLOWS if it is not flexible enought to meet your needs.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

How oddly mysterious! The parts where they deviate from the melody are clearly referencing something but who knows what that something could be?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Nice article, Jon!

Q. Maybe if they made you an offer you couldn't refuse?

A. Well, it's hard to refuse an offer you can't refuse.

Hee.

Thanks, P-C. As I said in Natter, I was very happy that quote made it in.
