Red Swinglines

Interesting fact- Swingline did not make a red stapler (as featured in the movie Office Space) until demand grew after the movie’s popularity grew. Read more about Office Space at Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Office_Space
Apparently the red version of the Swingline was just a black model painted red.

Kudos to Swingline for being in tune with the consumer and actually offering the red stapler model. This makes for an excellent example of listening to the consumer, understanding the marketplace, and taking action on the information. By the way, you can purchase a Red Swingline Stapler from thinkgeek.com.

Here is a picture of Milton from Office Space with his beloved stapler.

Gotta Love the Gekkards!

So what the heck is a Gekkard? Gekkards are small lizard-like creatures drawn by artist, Joey Welsh. My wife and I first discovered the Gekkards at the 4th Avenue Street Fair (here in Tucson, Arizona) last year.

Here is one of the prints we bought last year:

Joey does these drawings with colored pencils, and I have to admit I really love these little guys. I’m writing about the Gekkards now because my wife went to the Street Fair yesterday, and we are now the proud owners of five different Gekkard drawings. I’m sure we’ll be adding more soon. Please visit Joey’s Website if you’d like to learn more about them, or buy some for yourself.
