Jeeeez Bec, I thought you were toooo busy for us... Now I can see why!

This reminds me of the time... when a young designer, under my direction, had gone crazy doing a "parallel" design program for The Spagetti Center - this was when we were on the Getty Center project... (7 years!)...at any rate, I let him go with it and all of us on the team would add in little stuff to have fun (when we weren't working)... Welll, one day, my boss, Saul Bass, primo mega designer, decided to pay my project area a little visit...he saw The Spagetti Center project and bellowed the biggest, loudest, hollerin', mother-fuckin', bad ass, bunch of shit I ever heard... the kid got fired...(I was hiding under my desk)...
