Oscar Nominees Montage
I watch the Oscars last night and I was mildly amused by the the opening montage of nominee snippets. I can’t objectively say that my amusement wasn’t caused by the realization that it was very similar to the “Get a Mac” ads from a few years ago.
As I said, it’s an observation, not a complaint. As my last entry on The Art of the Mashup explains, no one exists in a vacuum – everyone is influenced by someone.
I’m sure the Get a Mac ads were inspired by something else as well.

Demitri Martin
Like a lot of other people, I’m sure, Demitri Martin is my new favorite comedian.
His Comedy Central special on Sunday was great. He’s also seems to have some serious sponsorship from Microsoft.

Chuck Liddell & Tito Ortiz
Man, UFC rocks. I wish I could find a clip of this fight.
update – I just found a clip of the actual fight on Acquisition/Limewire. 🙂

People should keep this mentality in mind when they’re trying to think of the next big thing. Just think of what YOU need.
Oh, and WorldTV has a great blog too.
Make Like Tom and Get Outta Here
After working with Tom Cruise for 14 years, Viacom chairman Sumner Redstone decides not to renew Cruise’s contract with the company.
Well, when you start falling apart at the mental seams like Cruise has done over the last few years there’s bound to be consequences like losing contracts and having guys like me illustrate your spectacles on t-shirts:
Why I’m In A Good Mood
I’m in a good mood today for a number of reasons:
- A check cleared from one of my new clients
- I moved out of Miami and am back in New York
- My wife and I are going out drinking tonight with friends in the East Village
- I dig my new job at Deep Focus
- NECKFACE has his own Wikipedia entry
- A check cleared from one of my new clients
Did I mention I have money to go out drinking tonight?
