This week's contest is titled "Protect UR Brand" by Matt Gaffney

The answer to this week's contest is what marketers do not want their brands to do

Good luck with the grid and the meta

On Shore..... it's in the 70s and sunny here so it's Caiprinha Time....yeah. Need to get my drink order in quickly, thinking with this weather it's going to be packed.

Hearts and Thoughts for those that are getting hammered by the weather and upcoming weather. Stay safe.

Another great one.

Pretty tough grid I thought. Northwest corner in particular.
