The small thumbnails on the top of this page are a random sampling of websites in a member’s Network.
PLANNER: We want to be the intellectual Sunday paper. ME: How about this? PLANNER: Love it. But we also want to be the playful Sunday paper. ME: How about this? ...
The intent of this website is to allow you to explore me at your own pace. To discover hidden felicities without the pressure of the clock. To dip in to my soul,...
I'm of the belief, old-fashioned some would say, that writers should have some skill with words, although simply attaching the proposition to the bottom of the art...
Everything new is old again. Or some such hoary chestnut. A while back, Microsoft wanted to show much you could get done using their MSN.com web portal. We...
Helga's was best-known for doing a very annoying campaign featuring very annoying people asking "Is the bread Helga's?" at inappropriate times. With sales dropping...
There are billions of dollars of lazy money sitting around in banks doing nothing. Sounds like a pretty sweet life to me, but apparently not. Our solution was that...
I'n not a big fan of the great outdoors, although I sometimes like to gaze at sections of it from the great indoors. Preferably from a comfy couch. With the TV...
Like most advertising types, I have posted a bunch of funny, award-winning ads. I've even posted a picture of my cat. We all like pictures of cats. The intention...
I find having some nice art about the place projects an air of sophistication that might otherwise be beyond me. After my black velvet 'Dogs Playing Pool' art...
Sometimes good things happen to good people. My karma must have received a sneaky boost, because one day the agency I was working at received a brief for PowerAde,...
They say you shouldn't play ball in the house. They say blondes have more fun. They say all insurance is the same. But who are They? We did some research of old...

I've always been a bit of a fan of modern design, although you would never suspect it from my slovenly appearance and general messiness. So when I found myself the...
For many years I played saxophone in a Sydney ska band accurately called The Hangovers. I'm the handsome chap bottom left. We never officially called it a day, so...
A friend of mine likens radio to the gaping carcass of a zebra after the lion has had its feed. The bits the lion has removed are television, posters, press,...
So you're given a brief to promote the island of Tahiti and you are wondering how you can get a trip out of it. This is tricky. After all, it's not like there...
I love a good fact. It makes the job of writing a good ad so much easier. So when the fine folk at Bacardi asked us to move their rum from being a the first drink...
I'm fond of books. They make dandy doorstops, can be stood upon to reach high places and, in numbers, can be used to create posters. This one promotes the sale of...
It is safe to say our Adult Survivors of Child Abuse (ASCA) campaign was not universally lauded. Our clients, all of whom are child abuse survivors, wept when we...
That was the charming greeting from the neighbours writ in indelible crayon ( or so they hoped) on the front door of my new house shortly after it was finally...
