Try and keep up, will you?

The Dieline blog, the self proclaimed "Leading package design website" is known to be on the cusp of the latest, greatest new packages.  They've develeoped a reputation for finding good packaging design and revealing it to the design community before word gets out on it's own. Well, Credit goes to The Dieline for featuring the excellent packaging for Elsa's Story snack foods....about 2 years after me that is.  Some of you out there may recall (that is, if you went to college with me and were paying very close attention) that I chose Elsa's Story brand crackers as my example of good packaging for a homework assignment.  I enjoyed the box so much that I even kept it in my car for several monthes so that  I could admire it occasionally. And, unlike The Dieline, I found the crackers somewhat bland (though not unsatisfying). So,"The Dieline"...You think you're so great with your fancy website and vast readership? I don't need either of those things. I've got my prognostication skills.  Why don't you join me up here on the cutting edge?

I heard this blog was good! And if you say so, it really must be! Totally checking it out.

I never said it was good. Who told you that? But I figure it's simple odds. If there's enough posts eventually one or two will have to be good, right?
