Belgian NEE party senate candidate, Tania Derveaux, in an effort to thwart the efforts of candidates who were making what she claims to be ridiculous job opportunity promises, launched a campaign in which she posed nude and promised she'd create 400,000 new jobs. Men, being who men are, immediately responded to the campaign by emailing Tania to ask her for a blowjob. (Hey, it's got the word "job" in it after all.)
Ever the one to capitalize on the chance at more publicity for her cause, Tania plans to oblige her supporter's wishes and has promised to offer 40,000 actual blowjobs to those who sign up. Humorously, she's offering the shy and married ones a virtual blowjob in Second Life. All one has to do is sign up and agree to the terms of service.

A couple years ago, Tug McTighe and John January, creatives at Kansas City-based Sullivan Higdon & Sink launched a facetious banter fest called American Copywriter, a podcast everyone who works in advertising should be listening to. Initially, the podcast was linked closely with SHS because everyone involved with it worked at the agency. Since Tug has moved on to another agency and others have become involved, the pair thought it was time to to kill off the sheep (SHS's logo) and introduce a logo of their own.
John describes the new logo writing, "Ugly? Sure. Poorly designed? Without a doubt. But that's just what we like about it." And after you listen to a few American Copywriter podcasts you won't care what the logo looks like because these two guys are not just experts at what they do but exceptionally talented entertainers. Give it a listen or two.
