   $182 for a whiteboard with a clock in it? Because that’s all the page seemed to describe the thing as.

   Or (and repeat after me, kids) am I missing something?

   sure, a similar sized dry erase board is $50 and i could probably find a nice wall clock cheaper than $100, but as a designer, i’m always looking for elegant inspiration — especially in my home office.

   “Elegant inspiration”? Since I’ve got kids, I’ll settle for “work clothes with no vomit on them.”

   you should introduce the idea of inspiration to the designers over at the n&r… they could seriously use some.

   do you even have designers over there?

   Ouch. Our print page designers win national awards.

   The web site? Not so much, although I think they’re redesigning the site again after the first of the year.

   i like the design of the print paper… but the web is a different beast. it’s not all about controlling headline, image and gutter space. if you ever need *billable* assistance, you know where i live ;-)

   Lex: Hey it’s a whiteboard with a clock and zits on. :-)

   Yeah price may be a little over the top (I got a cheaper one myself — hey I’m Dutch ) but I do like the fact the hands of the clock aren’t behind a piece of plastic (I have to take the thing of the wall to adjust the time for daylight savings)… At least that’s practical.

   if you remember our last conversation about clocks at fanelli’s, courtney, i’m guessing that you’re being facetious?
