We Get Email – Redux

Putting the Rants in AdRants for a sec, OH you have no idea what gets sent in. Record labels’ latest CDs from D-list talent. Nude iPhone tips. (Those we like, actually.) Upcoming Access Hollywood interviews with an extra from the first season of The Hills. 15,000 word PR releases–with no image or link to a campaign–asking if we’d like an image or link. To. The. Campaign.

Ya think?

Today’s gem included a 15 meg Flash file. (Yes, we have every CS app under the sun, but we don’t post .swfs.) We might have of course, if we even HAD THE LINKED VIDEO CLIP THAT WENT WITH THE .FLA. Instead, Plan B kicks in and a YouTube search turns up the spot. IT’S IN 3D AND YOU NEED SPECIAL GLASSES. (The clip is below. Just shake your monitor; same effect.)

We prefer Quicktime clips (or the embed code from your site), or better, send a link to your clip already posted on YouTube. We grab code > everybody happy. Make us work for it > everybody not happy. Otherwise, that just takes time away from sorting through the important stuff.

Like the assistant who just got promoted to senior assistant at Graphic Printers Inc.*

*sigh*

*Names fictionalized to protect the innocent–but believe, we get that shit sent every day.

Psychology says people who reach their 60s without any major regrets aren’t lucky – they’re the ones who mastered one crucial emotional skill most people never even think about – the ability to let go of the life they thought they were supposed to live and fully embrace the one they actually have

Quote of the day by Maya Angelou: ‘There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.’ For most men over sixty, that untold story isn’t dramatic. It’s the ordinary wish that someone had asked them how they were feeling, even once, and actually waited for the answer

Psychologists explain that people who keep every conversation light and funny and never let it go deeper aren’t being easygoing. They learned early that depth invites judgment, and the humor is a boundary disguised as warmth that keeps people close enough to enjoy but far enough away to never disappoint.

Psychology says retirement doesn’t feel like freedom because freedom requires knowing what you want — and most people spent their entire career postponing that question until a future that just arrived

I didn’t figure out who I actually was until after my kids left home, my career ended, and I was sitting alone at 66 with nothing to perform for — and that’s when my real life started
