recent business carton - Roy Delgado
Reminds me of a guy I used to work for . . . nobody
liked the bastard owner . . . . I told one guy the first
day I was there . . . I said to him: " How can you work for a guy you can't stand ! ? " The time goes so slow ! " . . . He
told me: " The secret is to take LONG lunch hours ! . . ,
"It makes the time being here go quicker ! "
Once I caught on, I learned the guy was right !

I do all my color cartoons on
my trusty Corel Paint ShopPro9
program. . . . although Corel is
now up to CorelPaintSopPro 16,
I STILL prefer the NINE.
Now I know what Jerry King meant
when he told me he uses PhotoShop 4,
I believe, although at the time he told me,
( awhile back )his program was up
to PhotoShop8 or 9.

Cartoon of the Day - Roy Delgado

" When I am . . .
completely myself, entirely alone . . .
or during the night when I cannot sleep, it is on such occasions that my ideas flow best and most abundantly.
When and how these come I know not,
nor can I force them. "

My old shop
Back in the good ole days ( Not too long ago ) This photo was
taken in the mid 80s . . . . I had just sold my 81 DeLorean and I
ended up with my two favorite older cars. . . a '55 Chevy Bel Aire
and a Camaro, I think it was a 1987 ? Both neat wheels.

Starbucks in Heaven ? -1000rcd - SatEvePost cartoon coming - Roy Delgado
My company, Delgado Signs of Woodbridge, Virginia
were awarded all of the signage for the first Starbucks Coffee Shop ( 1993 ) in the east coast. It was located in Washington, D.C. on Wisconsin Ave.
Our company went on to do 27 new Starbucks stores
located in Maryland, Virginia, Greenwich, CT. and one in Boston and one in Atlanta. The first store in Washington, D.C. was due completed right in the middle of " The Blizzard of '93.
I think the top brass from
Starbucks were impressed with our timely opening in the middle of a blizzard with no panic at the first store and "gave" us the next 27 as a gift, I don't know, but it was a pleasure doing business with such classy professional
people.
