Hi ngk:

Wish I knew how to draw on here. I said sign, but I meant a circle with Oral Cancer inside and the line going through it.

Hurry and think of more so we can beat Eric grin

We have been down this road before when we contributed slogans for the Pepsi Refresh Campaign".
(see link below)

I have copied the suggestions from that thread here for consideration.

Even though folks who do that do come up sometimes with pretty good stuff and than other times just silly but THEY think it's good! (at the time) smile

I think it is still good to keep this going but just want to go back to Brian�s original post and emphasize the SHORT....it needs to be visible on the wristband without turning it 360 degrees.
A few more gems from me smirk

Wipe Out Oral Cancer
Eliminate Oral Cancer
Defeat Oral Cancer

Quote from Brian�s Killer Deal on T Shirt post�.
"By the by� we are in need of a new SHORT saying. The wristbands will stay the same for the next decade, but all other things need to change now."

I stopped and then moved and now I can't find it!!! I'm wondering if that's why the movers were so funny, those dicks! Some of the best commercials I ever wrote were with help smile

Time to hit up the local college students!

But they cut my tongue out anyway!!!
BE SURE YOUR DENTIST DOES AN ORAL CANCER SCREENING"

I do think some of the most memorable slogans involve humour and "memorability". And, that would be the purpose of the slogan....interest people AND get your point across.

As far as your stash Eric.....we'll talk later wink

In the spirit of "one look is worth a thousand words" - How about a picture of a great big screw with the words "Oral Cancer" underneath. That should get attention. No naughty words used in that.
