Too Drunk To Drive, Bruu

A refreshingly funny, yes funny Anti-Drunk Driving commercial from New Zealand. I've already watched it like 6 times, 'you know I can't grab your ghost chips'. So good.

A Little Something

I just came across some super fantastic street installations by an artist from the UK that goes by Slinkachu. He's been creating these 'little' scenes since 2006. I don't know how I have never seen these before. These are just a couple of them I found most amusing but, there's more on his website which you'd be silly not to check out. http://slinkachu.com/little-people

Boston Boozins

I'm sure everyone, or most of you have heard about the ridiculously expensive bar tab the Boston Bruins racked up after they won the Stanley Cup this year. But, if you didn't, well, here's a little infographic for you to help you get a better idea of just how $156,000 could be spent on drinks in a single night. All I'm saying is, I wish I was the server that night because, good god that tip would have been amazing. I also can't resist pointing out the very disappointing amount of Bud Lights drank that night. Bud light guys, really? Come on.

Far Back Friday

For the past couple of days I've been doing a little Spring cleaning. Except instead of being Spring, its Summer, and instead of cleaning I'm actually making a bigger mess. See, a lot of work can pile up in 10 years and that's what I'm dealing with here. I'm getting all 1o years of these print samples back in order, because needless to say, they are a little out of control. I'll be honest with you guys, it kind of looks like an episode of Hoarders in here and I'm not even half done. There is, however, some good to come out of this process (well, other than things eventually being neat and organized and all) and that is when going through piles of old stuff, some gems are bound to pop up along the way. I've decided to share some of these gems with you here today. You're welcome. Exhibit A: bright colours, and bitmaps. This is all a little bit too much for my eyes to handle. Clearly this whole trend was before my time, and I feel pretty lucky for that. Exhibit B: Check these brochures out, I don't know what to say about them other than gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis are all really fun words to say. Also, I should probably get these things off my desk before people start getting the wrong idea. Unrelated to the photos above, does anyone recognize that dashing young fellow in the photo down there? Whaaa? Who? Wait a second, is that Mr. Callum Beattie?

Thursdays Have Gone To The Dogs

Well they have, but not in a bad way. Thursdays around here have now turned into
bring-your-dog-to-work day. Which just happens to be one of the best ideas I think anyone has ever had. Well, at least in the top 10. We had kind of tossed around the idea a few months ago to the ol' boss, the head honcho, el capitano around here. But, being the new girl I was a little weary of making the first move. Since then Charity has started here with us, and obviously wasn't quite as weary as I (I think you know how the rest of this story goes). However we both were slightly worried that the first bring-your-dog-to-work day might be our last after the first day's little episode... Lets just say someone's pooch was feeling a little adventurous that day, and he may or may not have made his way onto the elevator, and when that same elevator came back up and the doors opened well, maybe he wasn't on it. All is well though, we found him moments later in the basement, presumably getting a sweet treat from the vending machine. So, without further adieu meet Winston and Coco. Winston, my pride and joy is that handsome little fellow on top, and Coco is that sassy little chihuahua on the bottom.
