CAWD

Potential Cawd Sweatshirt Design…

So Billings and Christian have been working on a graphic for the back of our CAWD hoodies. They took a photo and are now creating a 2D version in Photoshop. This is their progress so far.

Thoughts?

So do people think they want hoodies? Zip hoodies? What color? Most people seem to like black…but I don’t know if the top of Christian’s head would blend into the fabric….we will have to see when they get done.

All of them…

We are happy to say that we now have all 3 versions of Smash Brothers to use in CAWD, as the following picture illustrates.

That cart on the bottom left is the Japaneese version of Smash Brothers 64, which a certain student picked up while in Japan this summer.

There are less differences than you would think, some different character names and sound effects, but suprisingly similar to the American game. Someone said the thought the AI was less difficult in the Japaneese version, but who knows.

So – the moral of the story is we are playing at lunch, earning CAWD money to……what should we do? Any new movies CAWD related that seem good? I mean, something better than that alien infused Indiana Jones malarkey?

The Chairs are finally dead…

The old CAWD chairs have moved to a farm, where they will have plenty of space to roll around and chair to their hearts content. They truly are in a better place, maybe they will see your first dog there; you know the one your parents sent to that farm to run around and chase cats and just enjoy life all around. I miss Snowball, I wonder how she’s doing at that farm.

So now we have some new chairs in class that aren’t falling apart and squeaky. They also have arms and seat backs that don’t randomly fall off. So just a heads up, you mess around with these chairs, and I may have to send you to live on this farm I was mentioning. Also, the new carpet is in and looks pretty good with the dim lights and the new chairs.

Sadly, for the third straight summer, the tables that are attached to the side wall were not raised up and are still pretty low. So, you might want to get to class early this year or get stuck at the preschool hieght desks, your call.

For you second year, the second projector and screen have been installed so we can watch movies and play 64 when the first years are in English… Just kidding, you second years better be ready to learn some serious Chuck Norris like PHP skills and maybe a little jQuery / Ajax.

See you all Wednesday.
