I was surprised to learn that there was theory that Leonardo da Vinci painted himself as Mona Lisa, and I was even more surprised to learn that this theory is not really new.

In these days of modern technology, where online social media, e-mails and text messages has changed the way people talk to their family and friends, it is still worthwhile to send handwritten personal letters, greeting cards and postcards. Although this is being frowned because of the number of days involved before the recipient would receive the message, that is why it is called snail mail. An alternative to this to get letters and postcard mailing services who will take care of our mails and deliver them the soonest.

Let’s just watch the video, right after the lyrics to the song below.

Pants on the Ground
by General Larry Platt

Pants on the ground, Pants on the ground
Lookin’ like a fool with your pants on the ground
With the gold in your mouth, hat turned sideways
Pants hit the ground, call yourself a cool cat
Lookin’ like a fool, walkin’ to downtown
With your pants on the ground!
Give it up! Hey, get your pants off the ground
Lookin’ like a fool, talking with your pants on the ground!
Give it up! Hey, get your pants off the ground
Lookin’ like a fool with your pants on the ground
Gold in your mouth, hat turned round
Pants hit the ground, call yourself a cool cat
Lookin’ like a fool Talkin’ with your pants on the ground!
Boom! Bam! Pants on the ground!
Lookin’ like a fool with your pants on the ground
With the gold in your mouth, hat turned sideways
Pants hit the ground, call yourself a cool cat.”

One of the most common and convenient way of introducing your new business is through the use of business cards. Because they are small can be readily carried, you can always give them away whenever you meet a potential client, customer, partner or investor. That is why you should always bring your business cards everytime you go out. Creating a business is easy because because there are softwares that can help you make one, you can also search the web and get your business cards online.

But for better representation and professional looking business cards, it is better to let a professional graphic artist and printer do your cards for you. A card can tell about you and your business, so a thorough planning should be done in trying to figure out the information as well as logos and their placement, which will be included in this small marketing tool.

Once you got your business professionally, have it printed by professional printers too. You can also do the same online or search for some within your neighborhood. It is always wise to invest on your marketing tools, even in the small ones as the business cards… even if you believe you can design one yourself.
