A few weeks ago, LoadingReadyRun posted a serious commentary on the state of the global economy, titled “Economic Stimulus.” It was a mockumentary of sorts, a treatise on the nouveau pauvre, a post-modern…
Ok, really, it was just a silly sketch. But it was funny. If you don’t believe me, watch it:
After seeing the video, we decided it would be a really good idea to take the core concept of the video–the International Brotherhood of Lemonadespeople–and make it a reality. That’s right, we are going to shock and awe (and possibly ground and pound) the world with a global network of union-supported, orphan-fueled lemonade stands!*
There’s only one thing holding us back: we need a logo. The problem is that Graham and Kathleen are in Japan establishing inroads for our franchise, Paul is in the middle of a balacing-things-on-his-head marathon, Jer is away at a Ducks Unlimited rally, Matt is playing Final Fantasy 7 on his PS3, James is editing a new Iron Stomach Challenge, Morgan is off seeking spiritual enlightenment, Bill’s asleep, and Tim has no graphic-generating abilities whatsoever.
So we need you to help us out. Make a crest, logo, badge, union sticker, insignia, coat of arms, or emblem that will aid us in establishing a corporate identity for the International Brotherhood of Lemonadespeople.
Send in your graphics by Sunday, July 12, 2009. The best crest, as judged by the Bosses, will win a medal.
We’re counting on you, Runners. Help us become TOO BIG TO FAIL!!

Firstly, I might try, but this is really not my area of expertise. Secondly, I really hope Paul is actually making some more stuff for thingsonmyhead – that would make me almost as happy as if the next challenge is about actually going out and starting an International Brotherhood of Lemonadespeople.
Ducks Unlimited? REALLY?
The fact that it exists alone is made of win.
Suh, I say, suh! I accept your challenge!
Grrr, I’ve already got mine done but my scanner isn’t working!
James is editing the next Iron Stomach Challenge? Huh. I have a good idea for a logo, I’ll get Loading Ready on it this evening.
where do we send the logo?
Not a submission but while looking for lemon pics I found:

Submitt-ed!!!
I just submitted mine! ^_^
Submitted mine. Not really great with this stuff, can’t wait to be in the Runners!
Oh snap, finally a chance to use my education for good! I’ll be working on this tomorrow for sure.
Oh, the 13th is Monday.
Well instead of sleeping, i ended up making something and submitting it. Ah well, it was worth it!
