    The current banking crisis explained...

    Young George bought a donkey from a farmer for £100.
    The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next day.
    The next day he drove up and said, 'Sorry son, but I have some bad news. The donkey's died.'
    George replied, 'Well then just give me my money back.'
    The farmer said, 'Can't do that. I've already spent it.'
    George said, 'OK, then, just bring me the dead donkey.'
    The farmer asked, 'What are you going to do with him?'
    George said, 'I'm going to raffle him off.'
    The farmer said, 'You can't raffle a dead donkey!'
    George said, 'Sure I can. Watch me.. I just won't tell anybody he's dead.'
    A month later, the farmer met up with George and asked, 'What happened with that dead donkey?'
    George said, 'I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two pounds a piece and made a profit of £898'
    The farmer said, 'Didn't anyone complain?'
    George said, 'Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two pounds back.'

    George now works for Barclays

    Just got ANOTHER email with a brief or design related email that I have no idea about/never heard of before. This has happened THREE times. It turns out there is a guy in the US with the exact same name as me who is a graphic designer, but when they google his name they get my site as I come up number 1 in google haha. I went to page 7 and still couldn't find him listed anywhere, poor guy. Maybe I should start stealing his jobs! jk

    ^ I set up a studio in 2002 with another bloke. We didn't know what to call it. He kept coming up with really awful name. I had to keep saying "Oh god no". One day I took a book in and it had the word FURY on the front of it. He looked at it and said "What about calling ourselves Fury?"... by that point I already knew I wasn't going to be there much longer so I just said "Yeah great lets call it Fury".

    Then I sat at my desk and googled Fury, Fury Design, StudioFury and saw that there were already about 60 design companies with Fury predominantly in their name. I just kept quiet though, it was easier than going through the pain of trying to find another name hahaha.

    So now I wonder, whenever he does a CD artwork and puts a design credit on it, is it the Fury design company in Bristol, who come up in Google and who do music stuff, who get his work, or maybe the design company Fury Design in London who also come up much higher in search results.

    It pays to check these things out before registering your company name methinks.

    • Indeed. My US counterparts mother should have googled the name before giving it to him.

    • Sounds like it pays to check who you choose to set up studios with more like.Salt47
