Is it or is it not?



Some controversy on the web when Washington Nationals anounce their new logo. Especially 'W' make some critics. Some say it's just an inspiration other that's a copy. Is it or is it not? Anyway it's a little bit similiar for me but I have to say that if it's a copy it's look better than the original ;)

Dallas Clayton write kids books.



HELP
If you took all the time you spent complaining
about feeling like a better person
and learned how to make furniture with your hands
and fix your own car
you would be a better person
and everyone would know it
and you would be happier.
