LLOG BLOG#6: Send-ins and Advertising = YES!

Hello and happy Log Day! Holy shit! It has been a wacky-wild week in the LOGMAN INDUSTRIES PRODUCTION STUDIOS. I can't wait to show you, but first, let's get to READER SEND-INS!

This first one is sent via cell phone directly from the frosty, snowy and mapley state of Vermont!

Thanks to Kala B. for sending this one in. Stay warm!

(We are not certain that this photo wasn't meant to be sent to another "log-based" internet site...But LMI got it. oh well, LUCKY LMI!)

Here's one that arrived via cell phone from the home of MIKE THE HEADLESS CHICKEN (http://www.miketheheadlesschicken.org/mike) Fruita, CO.

Thanks John L for your loyal following and for this drawing... that has nothing to do with logs.

Coincidentally, Back in 1997, one of our faithful LMI artists did this painting...

a digital pic of a photo print of a painting of an alien.

...It's a little blurry... but can you see the alien? it's right there... that one blurry shape RIGHT THERE! (side note: This was painted for a fellow artist/art collector named Mike G. and he threw it out. YES!)

The last READER SEND-IN comes to us via time machine from Grand Lake, CO from the year 1983.

Again, not log-themed, but very nice, Matt E. Thanks for the READER SEND-IN! YES!

In other LMI news, the LMI ADVERTISING DEPARTMENT has taken on a few accounts...The first account is a brand new, fine wood-working shop in Boise, ID called CRB WOOD LABS... They asked for something that reflects the artistry and precision of the custom wood working on which the company is founded. Let's see the best three that LMIAD produced over the last week...

We are still awaiting a call back from CRBWL.

Here are a few the LMIAD did for a Seattle-based drink additive company called Addition http://www.drinkaddition.com/ ... they wanted something that would show the "strength and potency" of their BEER SAUCE product. Let's take a look...

As you can see, this was LOGMAN APPROVED, but the client wanted something with a few...ummm... "less swear words." No problem! Let's workshop it!

Work shopped. Hmm. Juuuust missed the mark.

Well, Addition ( http://www.drinkaddition.com/ )went with someone else, but good effort on our part! oh, and Addition Beer Sauce is definitely LOGMAN APPROVED!

VISITING ARTIST INTERVIEWS: Ugh. it was more work than the LMI Dictating department thought. The first interview is not fit for print just yet. Stand by... hopefully next week. High school football coach, Larry Newlin, once said, "Winners find a way. Others find excuses." Well, Lar, I was tired this week, and the internet was going slow, and my dog ate it. So EAT THAT! YES!

Here's your SNEAK PEAK OF THE WEEK into the LMI R&D Art Labs...
