It’s June 30 and the dog days of summer are here. It’s hot outside, and it’s time to treat yourself. You deserve it. The root beer float is definitely a staple, but any ice cream and soda combo works. I like cherry vanilla swirl ice cream, with Virgil’s Cream Soda.  Doug Penick is an art director and designer based in the very hot and deserty state of Arizona.

Today we salute the all-powerful Remote Control. A monument to American laziness. I mean, you’ve gotta have a soft spot in your heart for the guy who was genius enough to invent a lazer beam, so he didn’t have to walk 8 feet across the room at the end of his favorite show. This one item became so necessary in my life, that I have about 7 of them. Most of the time it’s easier to walk the 8 feet. Otherwise I feel like Rebecca Black on a Friday, wondering which one I should pick. Doug Penick is an art director and designer based in the very hot and deserty state of Arizona.

Sunglasses are awesome. I don’t want to downplay the importance of protecting your retinas from harmful U.V. rays and all of that sensible stuff. But can you name anything on the planet that’s been more helpful in making white people look cool? I bet you can’t. Still, no matter what I do, or how much I want to buy those $400 Persols… I will never, ever, be as cool as Steve McQueen.

Today in 1951, the CBS network broadcast the first color television show. Big ups to the boob tube. I can only imagine how different my life would be if Thundercats, The Simpsons, and Seinfeld were broadcast in grayscale. I probably would’ve spent a lot more of my adolescence outside, that’s for sure. And Street Fighter would’ve sucked. So here’s to CBS and RCA for keeping me fat and happy.

Today we pay tribute to the Log Cabin. A grand fortress made from blood and sweat and work ethic. A representation of a time, when you didn’t have a home if you couldn’t build one. Lincoln logs weren’t even a blip on the radar, and being a lumberjack was the only recession-proof occupation. Join with us in raising our glasses to this historic and iconic symbol. Here’s to Log Cabins.  Doug Penick is an art director and designer based in the very hot and deserty state of Arizona.

The plastic pink flamingo was designed in 1957 by Don Featherstone while working for Union Products, and actually won him a Nobel Prize for Art in 1996. Madison, Wisconsin recognized the utmost importance of the (plastic) Pink Flamingo in 2009 as the official City Bird (100% true). Also, with a name like FEATHERSTONE, isn’t it destiny that he created this curious icon? I really think it’s time the Pink Flamingo got the attention it really deserves.

Go Skateboarding Day is easily the best holiday in the month of June for our artists. It’s an indisputable scientific fact, the majority of designers realized their love for graphic design while sketching Powell and Spitfire logos on the outside of 3-ring binders. There are few things more unifying than young dudes with old knees reminiscing about ‘that one gap’. Today is special. Go outside, skate to lunch, find out if you’ve still got it in you to nollie that 5 stair across from Denny’s. Whatever you do, don’t push mongo.
