A couple of thoughts before I leave


Gonna be with our Florida client all next week, the fabulous Pier House Resort and Caribbean Spa.

Working. Honest.

But just in case I don't have a chance to post anything while I am gone, I want to leave you with a couple of thoughts:

1.
Whether it's a bank or a credit union, almost all of their print advertising is tedious and uninteresting. Sorry, but that's the way it is.

2. Anybody who uses a picture of the Abe Lincoln statue in the Lincoln Memorial and puts him in sunglasses, a Hawaiian shirt, sneakers, a camo jacket or has him holding a cell phone, a puppy, a coffee cup, a cocktail, an AK-47 or any other damn thing has to get out of this business . Now.

Please. Do it for me.

It is not original. And not even clever anymore.

So there.
