The Untimely Demise of Liberty Fillmore

Date August 26, 2008

Well, I’m kind of bummed today.  Yesterday we found out that VeriSign decided to pull the plug on the next version of the Liberty Fillmore, Cart Whisperer campaign, which was in fact a presidential campaign.  For a few months, we had been working on a new phase of the marketing campaign where Liberty was running […]

3000 meter "Dash"?

Date August 20, 2008

On Monday evening we went to the park across the street.  There’s a pathway that encircles the park that is somewhere between 1/4 and 1/3 mile.  There’s a marker we’ve seen before that says the distance but it was getting dark so we couldn’t find it.  Anyway, when we got there, Logan said he wanted […]

My Favorite Book Ever…

Date August 11, 2008

I think this is probably my favorite book ever. Actually all 4 books of the series are I guess. And I haven’t even read a page of them. Julie tried to read to me from one of them but I made her stop after “…Edward’s velvet voice…”. That kind of made […]

Mighty Dog Site Launch

Date August 7, 2008

Last week we launched the new MightyDog.com website. We used some of the GMNext.com framework for this site, especially the social networking aspects of the site. This site ties in with a national ad campaign Purina is doing for their Mighty Dog line. So McCann also did the television ad production which […]

Ouch, ouch, ouch

Date August 7, 2008

OK, this is getting out of hand.  What is?  Well, 2 things actually - first that I haven’t blogged in over a month.  And second, gas.  This is the most I’ve ever paid for a fillup.  A couple months ago I posted my $100 gas station trip.  Well, that’s nothing.  Check this out…
