Only one thought went through my head as I got back to my hotel room after spending the day on the show floor, in meetings, and getting 50,000 volts jolted through my body, and that thought was, "GET A DRINK."
My night was supposed to start off by Tunnel Flying with Nicole Sheridan and her Husband, […]
The six people who sent this to me before 6am this morning can shut up right now.
And if any of you were planning on it… It’s been done. Go do something else.

I, on the other hand, get caught proving it. A lot.
I love my job.
Props to T-mobile and Danger for allowing me to do it from anywhere. Even on a ride up to altitude. (Was answering a reporter on a query about a client, btw.)
I went online looking for Boxing hand wraps this morning. They’re long pieces of cloth that you wrap around your hands before you put your gloves on.
I would buy them at Sports Authority, perhaps Sears, maybe a sporting goods outlet.
I wouldn’t buy them at Home Depot.
Yet, Google thinks I would, and would even charge Home […]
Apart from fulfilling their dream and telling them "I’m engaged,"(Sorry, not yet…) I would assume that this has to be an announcement that makes mom and dad happy:
Their son is a published author.
Go me.
Now please help me improve my Amazon rank from the 400,000’s into something a little bit better.
Well, this should go over well.

ZD writes it up this way:
Its lawyers say in court documents that Web scribes are not "legitimate members of the press" when […]
Chevy thought it’d be fun to piggyback off the Apprentice and allow people to create ads for their Tahoe SUV.
Good idea in theory. Except that not everyone likes Chevys, SUVs, or things that (in their words) guzzle gas and destroy the planet.
And their promotions agency didn’t see this coming because WHY?
Chevy Ads Chevy won’t like…
Just for the hell of it, I called Verizon this morning, and said, "Hey, I’m curious - why is my home telephone bill so high? I only have one line, doesn’t it seem a bit high?"
Without missing a beat, the rep on the other end said "Yes, it is. We can lower it by $25.00 […]
Just a thought… If I wanted to spend my day writing business plans that included such terms as "projected sales revenue splits" and "pricing strategy in year 1, 2, and 3" then I’d have gone to freaking BUSINESS SCHOOL, INSTEAD OF BEING A KICK-ASS PUBLICIST.
It’s NOT MY FAULT that I’ve come up with one of […]
Been wanting to post this for a while.
My office is on the 30th floor of a building. But to get there, I have to walk past a lot of offices on the first floors of buildings - with full windows. Below is the problem with having an office or a desk on the first floor […]
