If you've worked in advertising longer than one month, you know there are some very stupid people in the business. Perhaps you are one of them without even knowing it.

Did you know that Gary Dahl... The guy who wrote "Advertising for Dummies" is the guy who invented the "Pet Rock?" Made a ton of money, blew it all on bad investments. He now runs a bar in Los Gatos California... Still, not as bad as the time I got in a NYC cab and found it was driven by an ex CD from Y&R. Now you know what's in store for all of us.

The Adverbatims blog is quite a read, Steve -- thanks for sharing. I laughed... I cried... I tried to hang myself....

Crazy business.

Cheers! -- Roger D.
