Friday, September 28th, 2007Spent the morning setting up new IKEA office product. Their instructions always add a dose of adventure to the task….but the best part about them is the featureless, chubby humanoid (aka, the customer) who demonstrates the complete mental and physical experience.

Dragon Slayer
Thursday, September 27th, 2007Unfortunately JC (aka, Dragon Slayer) had to pull the plug on last week’s Tail of the Dragon, the annual homecoming event for southern s2000 enthusiasts. Something about the heat breathing down their necks. Nonetheless, this year’s poster was pretty sweet.

Bottle Deposit

What do you get when you combine Millennium Music’s Feed Your Player promotion with 1,000 CDs? Free iPhones, of course.

While it may not change everyone’s perception of the brand (do their savings really allow everyone to live better?)….it’s a stronger position and the work is solid.

Take a whirl.
