Costa Rica

Hello friends. This is a picture of San Jose, the capitol of Costa Rica. About three weeks ago, I was offered a writer/reporter gig there for a newspaper called The Tico Times, the only English speaking publication in the country and one of a few in Central America. I took it. They tell me I'll write primarily from San Jose, though I will travel around the country some and write stories about a number of topics. One of my beats is actually tourism, so I expect a fair amount of travel.

I figured, if I'm going to be a writer of some sort when I grow up, here's a pretty prime opportunity for material. A lot of my stuff will be online at http://www.ticotimes.net/. Feel free to hate mail me there when I slander your favorite Costa Rican political party.

So, in tres semanas, I leave Chicago, come through Dallas for a week (June 15-22) and head south. I hope to see as many as you as possible before leaving. If not, I hope you guys will come visit, especially considering airfare is as cheap or cheaper than flying to Chicago, and I hear the weather there is a little nicer.

Life happens.

A-Dub, I did a google image search of Costa Rica (trying to find a map), and this is one of the first images that came up.... have fun my friend.

Where's Waldo aka Brian Weiss? This is the only photo I have on file of BDub at the lake

I hope I see more of Brian Weiss in this year's photos....

If I got someone to manufacture these, do you think they could sell?

Please tell me what you think about this picture. I think they actually have a good relationship. But he knows he has to keep shit real. But he still love his woman.

Im playing golf with Mike James tomorrow.

What are yall up to?

The entire interview is great, but mainly listen to his story in the first 30 seconds to a minute:

In addition to being very informative and motivating there is no doubt in my mind that these would sell.

A Baby Shower.... for dudes. A surprise baby shower was thrown in Chambers honor. He received clothing, booties, a can of Old English, A DVD titled "Power Pilates: Post-Pregnancy Workout," and a book titled, "Who's my mommy?."

It was a good party. The baby is due May 7th.

It's a big day for the IC

A Little Help

So, at Love Advertising we have an intern who looks a lot like Wendy. And Wendys just happens to be one of our clients. We are thinking about trying to do a viral video with her in it. Something clever and funny like an SNL Digital Short. So, I was racking my brain and realized I need to employ the smartest/funniest group of folks I know- you guys. So any ideas on how we could execute this in a cool/fun/bizarre way are very welcome.

WANTED TO SHARE

Lee, how often would you wear these if I bought them for you?

Damnit Sawyer....puff, puff pass





This could also be another reason why both Bear and Weiss were NOT good in math
