Suspended Coffee

Effin' brilliant. Let's do it.

#20 Coffee for the less fortunate
This story will warm you better than a coffee in a cold winter day !
We enter a little coffeehouse with a friend of mine and give our order. While we're aproaching our table two people come in and they go to the counter :'Five coffees, please. Two of them for us and three suspended'They pay for their order, take the two and leave. I ask my friend:'What are those 'suspended' coffees ?''Wait for it and you will see'Some more people enter. Two girls ask for one coffee each, pay and go. The next order was for seven coffees and it was made by three lawyers - three for them and four 'suspended'. While I still wonder what's the deal with those 'suspended' coffees I enjoy the sunny weather and the beautiful view towards the square infront of the café. Suddenly a man dressed in shabby clothes who looks like a beggar comes in throught the door and kindly asks'Do you have a suspended coffee ?'

It's simple - people pay in advance for a coffee meant for someone who can not afford a warm bevarage. The tradition with the suspended coffees started in Naples, but it has spread all over the world and in some places you can order not only a suspended coffee, but also a sandwich or a whole meal.
Wouldn't it be wonderful to have such cafés or even grocery stores in every town where the less fortunate will find hope and support ? If you own a business why don't you offer it to your clients...I am sure many of them will like it :)

No matter what. This is also very true. Come on, just a few more and we'll rock the Supreme Court

We're in for one helluva movie spring/summer/fall

This, Place Beyond The Pines, Pain & Gain, Man Of Steel, Oblivion, Great Gatsby, iron Man 3, Star Trek, The Hangover 3, fast and the Furious 6 (they had me at the last one), Pacific Rim, World War Z, and all the other amazingness I've missed. Heck, even Emmerich seems to be able to make White House Down legit. And then there is Logan. Logan is Logan. Bawssbadass.

Attention seeking fucked up bipolar people on Facebook

These people are by far the worst I know. These randomly open exhibitions of human tragic. These and the ones yanking on how sick they are. Attention seeking whores. God I despise them.

We all have them in our feed. Not just as neatly packaged as here tho. If I was to be captured by Satanists or Cannibals and the only way for me to get out was to sacrifice someone on my Facebook newsfeed. I wouldn't even hesitate. Fact is, I wouldn't even have to be in trouble to do it. I'd do it right now. Put them in a tub and I'll tilt the toaster.

"If you ride like lightening, you're gonna crash like thunder"

You're welcome for the crazy ass research I did for you here. Googling. Stalking every single comment on YouTube, double checking leads, investigating. Testing. Starting all over. But I found it. This is the magical song from the end of one of next year's best movies.

Behind the scenes of a craftsman:

I have also received a lot of fan mails asking me how I created this authentic looking crocodile. The answer is simple. InDesign. Building boxes on top of boxes. "Carving" with more boxes - white boxes. Then I slammed that puppy into Photoshop to give it it's realistic feel, plus the lens falir.

Is it a bird, is it a plane - no - it's the new By" Beckett logo!

I know, I know, "Magnificent work", "Outstanding", "I didn't know you were an ace-designer", "Sure you're not related to Picasso?"

I also know it might be a bit sickening to look at, at first. A bit frantic. Stressful. Almost, chaotic. But at least it doesn't look like every other fucking logo out there. Helvetica and hipster and *yuk*. We carve our own path heaa. Obey no design rules.

UPDATE: As you can see (below) and header (above) I have already straightened it up a bit.
