Whoddya thunk that the same nation that ran this offensive ad just 50 short years ago would now be ready to run a woman for President?
Oh, wait…
OSCARS: So Many Complaints… So Little Time
Posted in Celebreality, Marketing, Media, Movies on February 25, 2008 | 2 Comments »
Okay… I admit it. I am one of those people that kind of get in to the Academy Awards. I watched the entire thing tonight - without interruption. Mostly because my husband is out of town, so he couldn’t get bored and therefore interrupt me. I actually took some illegible notes as I sipped some [...]
Bud Light: Sausages! Please, Sausages! Sausage!

I don’t know what it is about this ad… I have watched it a zillion times and I laugh every time. This is such a fabulous ad in an otherwise mediocre campaign. What is it that makes it so fucking hilarious? I think it’s the dog’s accent (and the change-up from sausages to [...]
QVC vs Quicktime Logo
Posted in Marketing on February 23, 2008 | 2 Comments »
As a Graphic Designer, I can tell you that - at least in my opinion - creating logos is one of the hardest and most time consuming of projects. They look simple, but that simplicity is murder to do. I can also tell you that when creating logos, I have browsed through other logos for [...]

I have to admit, I chuckled a little when I ran across this story in The Consumerist. It seems that a party in the UK didn’t appreciate the special appetizer they found on their receipt - specifically the “Suck My Dick Fuck Face”. Hey, at least they didn’t charge them for it!All I can [...]
In Honor of President’s Day (a few days late…)
Posted in Holidays on February 21, 2008 | 1 Comment »
This little ditty really shines a light on the man we know as George Washington. Very interesting and informative video cartoon set to music you can’t get out of your head. I promise you’ll learn things you never knew about General Washington, such as that he was 12 stories tall, fucked the shit out of [...]
Vintage Cookbook Centerfold of the Week

Courtesy of 500 Tasty Sandwiches, 1949.
Actually, this centerfold doesn’t look too bad - I’m all for anything broiled with cheese. What I thought was interesting was how good the tomatoes look. These are real, actual tomatoes - you know - the kind that seems to have been extinct for the past 30 years.
My mom [...]
My Album Collection: Grease Soundtrack 1978
Posted in Favorite Album Covers on February 19, 2008 | 4 Comments »
Ahhhh… the Grease Soundtrack. Do you know that I listened to this so much that I actually wore it out and had to buy another one? Did you even know that you can wear out a record? Well, you can and I did.
Grease was my favorite movie of all time when I was a kid. [...]
Seinfeld: Leave George a Message

Just a little Seinfeld to brighten an otherwise dreary Chicago day:
Where could I be?
Believe it or not…
I’m not hooooome!
