Baseball Season Starts. Hope Springs Eternal. Misprint Monday, uh Teusdya

My pal Garrett Kaule of KSW just pointed out a bad end of season basketball gaffe. Baseball season started this week and our thoughts (and prayers) go out to players to have a good year. Can the Red Sox go from worst to first again? Are the Phillies as bad as they looked yesterday? Can…

Kornit Goes Public with a Bang

Kornit Digital went public this week and the stock went up 40% right away. That’s maybe faster than one of their Avalanche presses could digitally print 5000 black shirts… Here’s the skinny. The market is closed today for Good Friday, so you’ll have to wait until Monday to jump on that action.

American Apparel Apparently in Danger of Being Corporatized

This Jezebel article details worker unrest and changes at American Apparel in the wake of CEO and founder Dov Charney being ousted from the company.

Human Rights Shirts

I am in Brooklyn in New York (look it up, there is a Brooklyn in CT as well) at the Annual General Meeting of Amnesty International. Volunteers from all over the country get together to work on human rights issues. They also wear all kinds of t-shirts. T-shirts are clearly a way that many people…

Quick Advice on Adhesive

We just tried this Albatross hot tack spray adhesive. It is as good as any we have used and even costs less! Yikes. We already use their roll-on bulk adhesive, and this stuff is great for the times you have to spray. I have had people send me flash tack samples for ten years and…
