planning joke
Adam Morgan's done well for himself.
damn right
I like the attitude of this Travelodge ad. Though I think it's risky asking bleary-eyed commuters - what's the point?
99 channels
There were 89 channels on the TV in the hotel in Jordan. Some of them were repeats, but I couldn't help flicking obsessively through them. And then taking a photo of each channel.
quick trip to Jordan
That's exactly the kind of dentistry you want isn't it? Conservative dentistry. Not radical dentistry or progressive dentristry, just tried and trusted, plodding, non-experimental conservative dentistry.
I'm assuming this is Pizza Hut. I hope so. It shows the power of a small red hat.
This is everyone at the conference I spoke at - waving because I took a photo to show Arthur what I was doing. I think this was the highlight of my presentation. I got a bit rambly after this. John Griffiths was there too. (You can see him on the front row.) I bet he was better than me.
A display of old sewing machines in the hotel. Obviously.
status
Went to Watford today to talk to the advertising students. Very nice bunch. Asked good questions. But the highlight was my reserved sparking space with my name on it. Made me feel good. (shame about the spelling though). It reminded me how all the non-heirachical, flat, democratic companies I like working for really let you down when it comes to pointless but gratifying symbols of seniority. I'd love a reserved parking space, but I'd hate to work for the kind of company that would give me one. Dilemma.
found weekend
Troubling posters all over New York. Like someone wrote a bunch of notes in a brainstorming and then decided to just run them all.
Arthur's suddenly into Star Wars. He now knows the letter X because it's the letter that looks like an X-wing fighter. That's educational.
Central Park children's zoo. Brilliant.
There are lots of people like this. Press them lightly for talking. Press harder for shouting.
