yeah, takes a loooooong time until the payoff, and some consumers might miss it at the end, but pretty darn good overall.

AICP party costs $228 to get in, ADC party will cost you a children's toy...for charity. Tough choice.

FYI, the $20 is also donated to children's aid, not to ADC.

And it's not on the "5th floor," it's at the ADC gallery (only one floor)

i have fun poking fun at you guys when appropriate, but let it be known that i'm also willing to tip my hat to you at times as well. kudos.

Re: GSD&M’s Curiosities Stacking Up - AgencySpy

UTBRT — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 14:44:06 -0000

surely gsd&m's response -- or lack there of -- can't come as any surprise, considering the way you guys have covered them in the past year or so.

the PR-editorial relationship should be give-and-take...there's never a guarantee of always getting positive coverage, but both sides tend to benefit over the long run when they treat each other fairly and with respect. PR people should have some balls and fess up to tough questions/bad news. but by the same token, a blog that continually posts snarky gossip and unverfied negative rumor has to be prepared for the consequences of that choice. they've f%&$ed up on how they've handled things along the way, but you guys ain't exactly innocent victims.

love the blog!! :-)

say what you will about mr. speedo, but he went further in advertising than 99.99999% of the readers of this blog ever will: built the agency into a mega hotshop, sold out at the top of the market...pretty fucking sweet, if you ask me. so what if he's full of himself...and his daddy gave him his start. jealous?
