Best Dish Service/Deal May 29, 03, 4:22 p.m.

When I'm not posting my opinions on America's shortcomings, I need to know important items of business like:

Who has the best satellite dish service and offers it at the best price?

I saw an ad for WOW Dish network but I don't know them from anyone else.

Approaching Burnout May 21, 03, 5:42 p.m.

Yes. I am.

Everyone has been there from time to time. Your eyes falling out of your head and the hours start to melt together. You can't tell Monday from Tuesday from Wednesday, etc.

What do you do to break the cycle.

I would say vacation but I have too many damn projects going on at once to escape for longer than 2 or 3 days.

Trying to find a solution before "approaching" becomes "experiencing."

thanks,

Creative Frat May 17, 03, 9:30 a.m.

I work in the design / production studio of our ad agency. For a while I have had the notion to switch to art direction and in particular, find a slot in the agency's creative dept.

I know all of the art directors and copywriters very well. We are all on good terms. Small but worthwhile opportunities to concept and art direct are starting to appear for me. This is great. But is this enough? I sometimes feel that if you are not in their dept. your outsider status can undermine, to a certain extent, your acceptance level as doing great creative.

Has anyone else experienced this "not a member of the club" like feeling when trying to prove your creative worth.

Or am I just overthinking the situation. I know my work speaks for itself. But I am not in the frat. Yet.

Drawing Again :-) May 13, 03, 6:41 p.m.

I have rediscovered the pencil and paper. Where my creativity started. I did these 4 last week. A varying assortment of sketches. Going back to my comic roots.

It's kind of nice to step away from the monitor for a while. I plan to do it more often and will update with new sketches.

They came to our agency yesterday to show their new reel. Some of the funniest and most creative commercials and shows on the tube.

Hank Perlman's spot for Fox Sports Motocross is worth the visit alone.

enjoy,
