I’m a big fan of the movie No Strings Attached. To me, it’s the perfect romantic comedy. Tonight, I stumbled upon the below quote from the movie. If you miss me, you can’t text, you can’t email, you can’t post it on my Facebook wall. If you really miss me, you come and see me. […]
The other night, as I was talking about travel plans and the possibility of going to Hawaii, the friend I was with said, “Wait on Hawaii.” He continued to explain that I should wait to go to Hawaii with someone special. In particular, a guy. My response? Fuck that. You can’t wait your whole life […]
I deleted my twitter account a few weeks ago. Gasp, I know. I spent weeks deciding whether to really do it or not – the warning message says you can never reactivate or use your same username, unlike Facebook who lets you reactivate at anytime. It was scary, but I felt like it was a […]
Aside from all my gripes with BDA’s, I finally narrowed it down to the three main reasons why I dislike ’em so: Nothing’s done on a handshake. Everything is a process. It’s corporate. I hate corporate bullshit. There’s always an over-the-top anal-retentive AM assigned to your account. Someone, somewhere thinks this is the perfect fit […]
I had the pleasure of sitting in a “special” presentation today. It was one where the presenters had intimate knowledge of some key audience members and yet, structured their deck to go above every one’s head. They talked social and search. They threw in “scary” graphs with steep trends both up and down. And, they […]
Hate is a strong word, so I’m using dislike instead. There are some phrases out there that really irk me. People use them all the time, I avoid them as much as possible. These are them. I Miss You. To me, this one is total bullshit. If you truly missed the person, you would do […]
I lied. This post has no good. But, since it’s still my birthday, I can write whatever I want. I’m so over this year it’s not even funny. I’d say it’s the worst yet, but I can’t really top losing a son and his father. However, I’d say this year comes pretty damn close. Acid […]
BlogWorld Expo was in Vegas this week. What’s that saying? The more things change, the more they stay the same? Yep, that about sums up BlogWorld. It was certainly very different from the iMedia Brand Summit I recently attended and, not in a good way. Maybe I’m just not cut out for social media conferences, […]
I love this post, Your Boss Doesn’t Care About the Conversation, by @MackCollier. It’s been sitting in my favorites for months, waiting for me to expand on it. The piece takes no prisoners; just tells the truth – no boss cares about the conversation. What do they care about? MONEY. If you’re a smart marketer, […]
To say that this week’s been craptastic, would be an understatement. Then, the fabulous Vegas Exposed campaign debuted. Originally, I thought it was a “special” campaign courtesy of R&R Partners and LVCVA. I can’t begin to tell you how thrilled I was that my hotel room tax dollars were helping pay for this campaign. But, then it hit […]
