unbearable lightness of being

I should've worn the mask

This week, I’ve spent nine hours in meetings preparing for a presentation…in which I was alloted one minute and thirty six-seconds (00:01:36) to speak.

I’m out of words now…

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…

From the opening ceremonies on, the TV in the house where the dude abides has been tuned into the Olympics. The Redeem Team is a lot of fun to watch. Michael Phelps, awesome. Chinese gymnasts… eight years old!

One thing I’m really digging about these Olympics is the musical taste of the folks at GM and Nike.

Silversun Pickups. The Killers. Brandi Carlisle. Marvin Gaye… Well done folks. Very well done.


Nike – Courage – long (2008) :60 (USA)


GM – Shiny, Blue & Beautiful (2008) :60 (USA)

I’m a sucker, I just conect with the music, I guess. If you like the tunes, you may or may not find the songs…
