Like an account planner that actually knows the target audience he’s bullshitting about in a new business presentation, George Parker writes us, “Cos, I know you guys are always looking for stuff… Steve, tits and arse, Angela, more intellectual stuff, I’m sending you something you might want to use in the category… “What do ad guys do when they finally get out of their BDA’s?”

Yes, George know Angela and I very well. And we appreciate him sharing with us some “life after the Big Dumb Agency” which comes in the form on HeadstrongBrain, a new (oh God, not another one) social network that centers around…um…exercising the brain. He explains it all here which is a good thing because we sure can’t.
