2cent, I just realized the other day, going through old email, that I sent you a job application a couple years ago when you were at Futurebrand.
Not that it matters, I just found it mildly amusing...

mr. snuggles = mike g... it all makes sense now.
yeah, prolly better that you didn't do work for us at the time... FB went belly up and some didn't see their cashola.
we had a our own little NT tdot posse back then... what happened to trusty... was that his name?
oh and that link Carty posted is work in progress... c1rca.ca should be live Feb. 1.

I hear that. Actually I ran into a guy i know a couple weeks ago that works there now, in the t.dot office. He's heading up the 3D design department, which apparently is doing well.
Trusty, yeah him and this another guy were doing dysfunction8, don't know if that's still around? Those were the days, it seems BC is the new Ontario on here now...

cool... yeah the print/packaging side merged with the multimedia side in the summer and then the print side of it folded shortly after that.
i could tell the ship was sinking when i left... glad i jumped when i did.
