The America 24/7 project that I participated in May is now publishing the national book (which I did not get in). I thought they were going for more straight-on human shots, but based on their state examples, it’s pretty even:…
There are no websites that feature rubber band art. What a shame. I shall soon have to correct this oversight of the internet. If you have any rubber band art, please let me know in the comments. Thank you.
I’m organizing my bookmarks in explorer, and I’ve found that I got 2,173 bookmarks. How ridiculous is that? To find out how many bookmarks you have, export them into a text file, and then do a word search for like,…

After the heart-breaking loss of the Chicago Cubs, it was time to take down the huge night window sign on the Tribune Tower, home of the Cubs owners. As the Tribune engineers removed the half-inch thick gatorboards, they discovered that…
The Cubs are going to clinch the pennant at Wrigley Field on Tuesday. I’m going to the ballpark during the game, and hang outside left field. (not inside the park, but outside.) I was thinking of anything wacky that I…
The look is picked up from the Insider Trading folder I did previously. Except this time, the twist is using the orange as the dominate color to differentiate the pieces a bit. Client: Tribune Media Services: News & Features department…
The Tribune Tower is putting up one of those big window night signs for the Chicago Cubs being in the National League Playoffs. The Tribune Company owns the Cubs, so it’s about time that they finally do this. I work…

I simply cannot believe that the following phrases do not exist on the internet: * bouncy ball catapult * bouncing ball catapult * bouncy ball gun * bouncing ball gun * bouncy ball shooter * bouncing ball shooter
KRT Campus provides top-notch news, sports and entertainment content to college newspapers. The copywriter and I came up with a bunch of funny ideas for this brochure to target the college audience, but the client wanted something that speaks to…
The person who got the least number of votes in the California Recall is: Todd Richard Lewis with 171 votes. I would think there would be someone with like only 25 votes. but 171, that’s not too bad. Lewis appeared…

Today at the historic Tribune Tower in Chicago, the security man accidentally broke the %%274-7415_IMG_400.jpg]revolving door. It’s rather ironic that the guy responsible for keeping the building secure broke open the entrance to the building. (reported by ladies man dave)
Eric Zorn compiled a list of all the crazy headlines for yesterday’s Cubs win with pitcher Kerry Wood. I added some more to create this combined list: “It’s All Wood” (Chicago Tribune) “Too much Wood” (Chicago Tribune) “Braves go to…

Oh, so then I got my haircut and I got ther JUST in time. It was 8:24pm and they close at 9:00pm. And the receptionist asked the only hair stylist left there if she had time for another person. She…
After work yesterday I went shopping for some brown or tan pants (preferably the stretchy kind) that would go with my shirt that I bought at H&M at lunch. I went down to Marshall Fields, and they had the whole…
lunch.com is available the deal of a price: $125,000.00. While I can’t quite afford that much money, I am currently in negotiations with them. Here’s an email that I sent to them: I’ll give you my lunch of a reuben…
