Myopic clients...meddling managers...and people in general who feel the need to finger f*ck a project to death. <br /><br />But nothing is as daunting, and challenging as....children. <br /><br />My son Paul just turned a year old...and man, is he awesome. Like any parent, I think my kid is the shiz, and I'm happiest when we're kicking it together, bouncing footballs off the dogs heads, making weird noises and generally having a great time.<br /><br />But with the good, comes the bad...like sleepless nights, mad rushes to get to day-care before they start the meter and making organic mac-n-cheese while my off-spring stickes odd objects in his mouth. This combo...plus the daily sausage grind that is advertising can suck you dry.<br /><br />My reading time...both in the trades, blogs and for pleasure...has vanished. Thursday and Friday night ventures to galleries, readings and theaters have been replaced by a bottle of $10-vino and sleep. And as a result...my ability to think conceptually has been replaced by a plodding, linear approach to, well, just about everything.<br /><br />Any tips out there? Any industry vets that can throw this old dog a bone. There's only so much caffeine a man can take...<br /><br />cheers.Raybaconhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13593292189690684795noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7493355.post-26249346234912818782009-04-28T14:16:00.001-07:002009-04-28T14:16:08.740-07:00Swoon: Swimming Cities of Serinissima Fundraiser<a href="http://coolhunting.share.flux.com/Post/Swoon-Swimming-Cities-of-Serinissima-Fundraiser/02BFBFFFF000E26EA000800B883AA"><img src="http://filesll.fluxstatic.com/00B883AA000E26EA00082BFBFFFF/Jpg/B-1237/AR120x120,Resize/633764322600000000" style="margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; float: left; clear: left;"></a><div>source: <a href="http://coolhunting.share.flux.com/Post/Swoon-Swimming-Cities-of-Serinissima-Fundraiser/02BFBFFFF000E26EA000800B883AA">Cool Hunting</a></div><p>Swimming Cities of Serenissima, international street and installation artist Swoon's floating art project, is the kind of undertaking that puts it in … <a href="http://coolhunting.share.flux.com/Post/Swoon-Swimming-Cities-of-Serinissima-Fundraiser/02BFBFFFF000E26EA000800B883AA">more</a></p><div style="clear: left;"></div>Raybaconhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13593292189690684795noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7493355.post-68634581067469411042009-04-27T09:31:00.001-07:002009-04-27T09:31:25.289-07:00Airstream x MINI Cooper S Clubman x Republic of Fritz Hansen<a href="http://coolhunting.share.flux.com/Post/Airstream-x-MINI-Cooper-S-Clubman-x-Republic-of-Fritz-Hansen/02BFBFFFF000E26EA000800B7E337"><img src="http://filesll.fluxstatic.com/00B7E337000E26EA00082BFBFFFF/Jpg/B-1237/AR120x120,Resize/633760218000000000" style="margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; float: left; clear: left;"></a><div>source: <a href="http://coolhunting.share.flux.com/Post/Airstream-x-MINI-Cooper-S-Clubman-x-Republic-of-Fritz-Hansen/02BFBFFFF000E26EA000800B7E337">Cool Hunting</a></div><p>For someone raised traveling in a converted bus like myself, this new Republic of Fritz Hansen-designed Airstream and coordinating modified MINI Coope… <a href="http://coolhunting.share.flux.com/Post/Airstream-x-MINI-Cooper-S-Clubman-x-Republic-of-Fritz-Hansen/02BFBFFFF000E26EA000800B7E337">more</a></p><div style="clear: left;"></div>Raybaconhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13593292189690684795noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7493355.post-59560916083168352152009-04-15T10:58:00.001-07:002009-04-15T10:58:23.493-07:00Rocawear Mobile RocPopShop<a href="http://coolhunting.share.flux.com/Post/Rocawear-Mobile-RocPopShop/02BFBFFFF000E26EA000800B6F32C"><img src="http://filesll.fluxstatic.com/00B6F32C000E26EA00082BFBFFFF/Jpg/B-1237/AR120x120,Resize/633753090000000000" style="margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; float: left; clear: left;"></a><div>source: <a href="http://coolhunting.share.flux.com/Post/Rocawear-Mobile-RocPopShop/02BFBFFFF000E26EA000800B6F32C">Cool Hunting</a></div><p>by Tamara Warren Taking the temporary retail concept to a mobile level, Jay-Z recently collaborated with architect David Ashen of D-ash on a tricked-o… <a href="http://coolhunting.share.flux.com/Post/Rocawear-Mobile-RocPopShop/02BFBFFFF000E26EA000800B6F32C">more</a></p><div style="clear: left;"></div>Raybaconhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13593292189690684795noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7493355.post-10761953238681386832009-04-09T13:34:00.001-07:002009-04-09T13:34:49.736-07:00BEST COMPANY EVERGreat shizzle from my friend(s) at BEST CO EVER.<br /><br /><object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/uV4WDBM7N3c&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/uV4WDBM7N3c&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>Raybaconhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13593292189690684795noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7493355.post-39413978198041473042009-03-20T07:48:00.001-07:002009-03-20T07:48:11.338-07:00Boxed Water Is Better<a href="http://coolhunting.share.flux.com/Post/Boxed-Water-Is-Better/02BFBFFFF000E26EA000800B29644"><img src="http://filesll.fluxstatic.com/00B29644000E26EA00082BFBFFFF/Jpg/B-1237/AR120x120,Resize/633730734000000000" style="margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; float: left; clear: left;"></a><div>source: <a href="http://coolhunting.share.flux.com/Post/Boxed-Water-Is-Better/02BFBFFFF000E26EA000800B29644">Cool Hunting</a></div><p>With Boxed Water Is Better, the only thing you're really consuming is the water itself.

And as stated above...if it's free, does it have value.<br /><br />Take Google. I get on Google at work, type in the name of a company I saw over the weekend and get the scoop. I don't click on any ads...I don't buy anything, and the only "cost" is that of my company to the internet provider. Google gets nothing.<br /><br />I really don't know where I'm going with this yet...but it seems to me that free nature of our economy is currently crashing on itself. and maybe what we need is less 'free-dom'... <br /><br />sPbRaybaconhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13593292189690684795noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7493355.post-10499956551931602882009-02-18T09:27:00.001-08:002009-02-18T09:27:51.682-08:00Renzo Rosso: Diesel Planet Store Fifth Avenue<a href="http://coolhunting.share.flux.com/Post/Renzo-Rosso-Diesel-Planet-Store-Fifth-Avenue/02BFBFFFF000E26EA000800A75832"><img src="http://filesll.fluxstatic.com/00A75832000E26EA00082BFBFFFF/Jpg/B-1237/AR120x120,Resize/633705030600000000" style="margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; float: left; clear: left;"></a><div>source: <a href="http://coolhunting.share.flux.com/Post/Renzo-Rosso-Diesel-Planet-Store-Fifth-Avenue/02BFBFFFF000E26EA000800A75832">Cool Hunting</a></div><p>Fresh off a smoke, Renzo Rosso sat down with us to answer a few questions about Diesel's newest and largest Planet store on swanky Fifth Avenue in NYC… <a href="http://coolhunting.share.flux.com/Post/Renzo-Rosso-Diesel-Planet-Store-Fifth-Avenue/02BFBFFFF000E26EA000800A75832">more</a></p><div style="clear: left;"></div>Raybaconhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13593292189690684795noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7493355.post-19379037132734314372009-02-17T05:00:00.001-08:002009-02-17T05:00:16.951-08:00LVHRD ARCHDL V<a href="http://coolhunting.share.flux.com/Post/LVHRD-ARCHDL-V/02BFBFFFF000E26EA000800A75152"><img src="http://filesll.fluxstatic.com/00A75152000E26EA00082BFBFFFF/Jpg/B-1237/AR120x120,Resize/633704310600000000" style="margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; float: left; clear: left;"></a><div>source: <a href="http://coolhunting.share.flux.com/Post/LVHRD-ARCHDL-V/02BFBFFFF000E26EA000800A75152">Cool Hunting</a></div><p>Pitting two architecture firms against each other in a timed construction duel, LVHRD sets the scene for another one of their infamous creative compet… <a href="http://coolhunting.share.flux.com/Post/LVHRD-ARCHDL-V/02BFBFFFF000E26EA000800A75152">more</a></p><div style="clear: left;"></div>Raybaconhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13593292189690684795noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7493355.post-44977774325265783302009-02-16T14:47:00.000-08:002009-02-16T14:49:32.330-08:00Fastest Weiner in the West<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZKLAklNQyg_Bo5j1u5p-kljwHXXn2_93WxNa2u_YpwUJNLIT6yVzK98Q696PBpDdxPIAHlqW-L6juKnHOKGzt2ULwa-sBBcaRdNQC1dE8DaYjHVYGmgSg25XnAwjWTMtY67DQ/s1600-h/ralphie.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZKLAklNQyg_Bo5j1u5p-kljwHXXn2_93WxNa2u_YpwUJNLIT6yVzK98Q696PBpDdxPIAHlqW-L6juKnHOKGzt2ULwa-sBBcaRdNQC1dE8DaYjHVYGmgSg25XnAwjWTMtY67DQ/s400/ralphie.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303531116700531586" /></a><br />My boy Ralphie defended is Weiner Dog racing title yesterday.

(actually, it was linked to a PSFK article...so go there, too). The purple cow example is not new...but it's still striking, and it confounds me that more marketers, brand managers and product designers don't follow it. why do beer companies think that new secondary packaging will sell more beer when EVERY beer company is always changing their secondary packaging. <br /><br />a great example was a brain drizzle i was in a few weeks ago and someone asked, "can we tell or show <insert client name> that we're are smarter than the other guys." and the resounding answer was no...we can't. we can show them we're smart...we can show them we're good...but we cannot show them we're smarter. what we need to show them, i argued, is that we're remarkable. we'll see how it goes....<br /><br /><object width="446" height="326"><param name="movie" value="http://video.ted.com/assets/player/swf/EmbedPlayer.swf"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><param name="bgColor" value="#ffffff"></param> <param name="flashvars" value="vu=http://video.ted.com/talks/embed/SethGodin_2003-embed_high.flv&su=http://images.ted.com/images/ted/tedindex/embed-posters/SethGodin-2003.embed_thumbnail.jpg&vw=432&vh=240&ap=0&ti=28" /><embed src="http://video.ted.com/assets/player/swf/EmbedPlayer.swf" pluginspace="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" bgColor="#ffffff" width="446" height="326" allowFullScreen="true" flashvars="vu=http://video.ted.com/talks/embed/SethGodin_2003-embed_high.flv&su=http://images.ted.com/images/ted/tedindex/embed-posters/SethGodin-2003.embed_thumbnail.jpg&vw=432&vh=240&ap=0&ti=28"></embed></object>Raybaconhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13593292189690684795noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7493355.post-31926030224537325062009-02-02T16:03:00.000-08:002009-02-02T16:04:02.089-08:00Big News Baby!Switch in the news today!<br /><br />http://www.stltoday.com/stltoday/business/stories.nsf/workplace/story/E6985C4F9700C725862575500004DF1D?OpenDocument#tp_newCommentAnchorRaybaconhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13593292189690684795noreply@blogger.com0
