I keep forgetting to mention that I got a note from Louise Logs creator Anne Flournoy that she and crew have been working on a number of episodes to the Louise Logs and hope to be “cranking them out during the summer.”
I can’t wait!! Of course you’ll hear about them here first.
I’m what you might call a closet George Carlin fan. I didn’t talk about him much, but if I had an opportunity to listen or watch him, I was there.

Okay, here’s my quick cool tip for the day (the day?… is this a regular feature?) If you’re anywhere in the east where temperatures are hitting record highs and heat index is over 100, try this:
buy some seedless grapes (I like red grapes)
put some of them in a sandwich baggy
put the baggy in your freezer
when they are frozen… eat and enjoy!

I received a newsletter from Globalworks (see my previous post) announcing that they had won three more awards for their beach ads. Just thought I’d quote from the newsletter about who created the ad:
A multicultural creative team at GlobalWorks created the spots. The creative director was born in England; the art director is from Venezuela; the producer is from Puerto Rico; and the copywriter is from the Dominican Republic. The directors of the spots hail from Puerto Rico and Argentina, respectively.
