Received this email from one of my buddies.

> I need a illustration done for my friends Batchelor party. I’ve attached a few pictures of him.
>
> We want to use the ‘CANTERS’ illustration attached, but with his face instead of that woman face. So it’s a side profile that needs to be illustrated. Also, can you make sure the hands are male hands holding the sandwich?

> 206-HOP, the new store below the Pike Place Fish Market, is the first Seattle shop dedicated to carrying exclusively local hiphop music, videos, and books, making this the place that anybody and everybody who considers him or herself a supporter should come through. Starting a store with exclusively local product is a bold move, but the folks at Crisis Clothing know how important the local community here is, and they're setting out to be a resource for artists and fans alike. - [The Stranger](https://www.thestranger.com/music/2003/08/14/15289/the-hiphop-tip)
