From the website:

"(RED) was created by Bono and Bobby Shriver, Chairman of DATA to raise awareness and money for The Global Fund by teaming up with the world's most iconic brands to produce (PRODUCT)RED branded products. A percentage of each (PRODUCT)RED product sold is given to The Global Fund. The money helps women and children affected by HIV/AIDS in Africa."

Caught the story on Apple.com of all places (they have a branded Nano).

Cool clean site. Flash. Great client list.

Write Chuck Palahnuik

Odds are, if you are reading this then you don't need me to tell you. Now, I'm not a die hard fan of Mr. Palahnuik. In fact, my only exposure to him (like many) has been Fight Club (which I watched, not read). But, he is the author of choice that I mean to start reading.

It seems he opens his mailbox to fans every once and a while. There are strict rules, but for the month of October you can write to Mr. Palahnuik an actual "letter" and he will get back to you (no email). I doubt I'll write him myself, since I have yet to actually read any of his work, but I hope to be part of the masses next time after I get around to his work - which I really want to.

DIY Ghostbusters

So we've started to get in the spirit (get it?) of the season. Pumpkins, monster stories, letting both my 2 & 7 year olds watch the original 75th anniversary edition of Frankenstein. We take this holiday seriously. What better movie to go along with fun and ghouls then Ghostbusters? A family favorite. Don't ask how I can across this link, but man is it cool - Ghotsbusters Prop Archive. Ever want that Proton Pack? Knock yourself out!

3-1 | GO BULLDOGS

I'm attempting to get back in the habit of posting (mostly due to the fact that 6 months can go by and I have no idea what I've done or seen). As most of you know, I coach my son's soccer team - The BullDogs. We're associated with LSSA. The U7 division. 10 boys. Including me, 5 coaches. We've got a great team of kids. They work hard, the like what they are learning, and hopefully each and every one of them is having fun.

We have our 5th game of the season tomorrow. Against a team that is ranked nearly identical to us. We think we have a set good group for defense and offense. The one game we've lost was a brutal one. We had more shots on goal then could count. I think steroid testing of their goalie is in order - I mean, wow. The kid was a wall.

We'll see how we do tomorrow. GO BULLDOGS.

The Brand Show | It's GO Time

So I've had this new job now for just over seven months. As one of my many duties, I co-host The Brand Show on 1510AM here in Kansas City every Wednesday at 9AM. The show centers around The Dean and his knowledge of Brand image, creation, rise & fall, etc. It's light, it's fun, and hopefully informative.

I love broadcast. When I was working for e.magination I had the opportunity to do a small voice over spot for DuClaw Brewery.

Recently I had the opportunity to do voice over once again for a local Honda TV spot that will air here in the KC market in about a week. I'll post a QT of the spot after it airs here.
