Geez, Frank.. where do you find all this stuff? I could wander around Boston with my head down for weeks and not find a 10th of the interesting stuff you do.

Designing a logo for a business?

Designing a really terrible logo for a stupidly named business perhaps from next seasons "the Apprentice"?

Or maybe it's a band.

You got it, Frank. Gotta be a band. They're designing a logo for a band.

And it's a girl band. At least, I'm pretty sure a girl drew those. I was going to say that Tycoon's kind of a funny name for a girl band that would put little star/humans in its logo, but maybe not. A guy band would be named Screaming Crotch Rocket, or something of the kind. (A *smart* guy band would be named something like The Mr. T. Experience, of course.)

I agree with Mike. You'd think Portland would be a great place to find crazy things, but I have yet to find anything. Wait, there was a can of Kippers on the bus the other day, that's crazy isn't it?

I think it was a tagger tryign to work out a form for his tag.

Though I suppose it could be a particularly lame band.

I'm not sure there is anything you can do with the word "tycoon" that wouldn't be at least a little bit lame, except maybe put an asetrisk on one side and quotation mark on the other. That would actually be pretty cool.

Are you sure it's not a new piece of flash for a tattoo parlor?

Looks like tagger warm up to me, too. I think the umlaut over the first "o" is a nice touch, I'm all about the balance.

Tagger warmup. Reminds me of living back in Bloomington. Full of posers practicing their tags. And that "Y" is totally wack in every version, yo.
