Obviously, Bono did not find what he was looking for.

How is it you say… 'these things just kind of write themselves.'

Obviously he was going to show up that day with or without you.

OK. Now I'm done.

I am srsly impressed! I'm disappointed in myself for not coming up with this. Sigh. I move in such non-mysterious ways.

Excellent lessons! I especially love the baby baptism card story. And the photo where we are wearing matching ninja outfits.

I laughed at our outfits, too! That was during my all-black "I am a ~CREATIVE~" period.

I missed Bono as well...and I WAS IN THE BUILDING. Just too busy that Friday afternoon to go "all the way over to the Rice Center" (from 2440) for the meeting. I kick myself as well (but thankfully he did not call out my design work).

No way! Okay, good to know I wasn't the only one. I get it, the Rice Center was at *least* a four-minute walk! Who has that kind of time?!

"Pardon me ... Care for some liquid clothes remover?" Now that is a card I would definitely purchase. That is really, really good! Of course, you came up with that.

Yes you would! I'm surprised you don't already have a trucker hat with that quote…

Ha! Love it. I'm full of useless mantras, if you need more.

Of COURSE the one Panicked Creative newsletter I read late is the one with the Bono story in it. LOL. I remember telling as many people as I could that they really, really, really should come to that meeting, and sounding absolutely crazy doing it.

Haha! I love it. Y'know, I was trying to remember who told me he had been there, and I'm pretty sure it was you!
