another another tweet over the cuckoo’s nest

Following up on a follow up of another one of my posts about the magic birdie.

For some reason there are now 300+ people following me on the Twitter. Alas, only half of them want me to buy Viagra. Here is a quick snapshot of the poor unfortunate souls who’ve chosen to listen to what I have to say:

the dramatic and the dude

the dramatic and the dude

It was almost a decade ago when the dramatic and I had our great expectations realized when we broke away from our little ones for a date night with the beautiful Moulin Rouge. We were huge Baz Luhrmann from the moment we saw Strictly Ballroom and when we heard that he was making a flick with Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman we counted the days until we could see this epic. We loved it. In fact after the credits rolled, we left the theater, strolled into a nearby Target, and bought the soundtrack so that we could enjoy the moment a little longer as we re-entered the real world. Great love story. Great soundtrack. The most lush visuals we had ever seen on film. We really loved everything about it. … Read the rest of this entry »

one tweet over the cuckoo’s nest

I laugh out loud at my phone. All the time. I get these text messages from Shaquille O’Neal, and they’re just about the funniest things I’ve ever read. John Hodgman (you may know him as PC from the Apple commercials) his texts make me look silly, too. Dooce, her messages are equally hi-larious.

Obviously, these folks aren’t texting me. I follow Shaq, Dooce, Hodgman and about 80 other folks on Twitter. It took a while for Twitter to win me over, but through the course of the ’08 Presidential election, I grew to love it a little. It has a place. It serves a purpose. And now, this dude is throwing Twitter his endorsement as a valuable platform for communication.

office space

New newsy news! Later this week, flairification.com will finally launch.

flairification is the latest addition to this little of blog consortium I’ve been building over the last year or so.

Here is the rundown:

wholebrevitything.com – just one dude’s slice of life.
extraawesome.com – my collection of cool found on the interwebs.
adfeed.extraawesome.com – OPP (other people’s posts) about advertising.
flairification.com – truth well flaired: a place where I can write about advertising, thereby saving wholebrevitything from shop talk.

I hope flairification turns into a place where lots of folks can post, and add thier perspective on advertising. Like SB’s appreciation of Target’s latest 30 second spot. So feel free to be a guest writer of the flair.

It’s after 3AM now, and I’m out of words…
