The Pierogi Diaries: Kobiety!
http://pierogidiaries.blogspot.com/2007/07/kobiety.html
Friday, July 27, 2007. Let me begin like this: You know how most offices might have a little kitchen area stocked with a few plates, coffee mugs, tea cups? Well, the Democratic Union of Women has a kitchen with plates, mugs, and cups - in addition to a collection of about 20 shot glasses. The women in the office surprised us yesterday with a traditional Polish lunch and with a 500-zloty stipend that we hadn't planned on receiving. (Guess who's buying gourmet pierogi for dinner!

The Pierogi Diaries: June 2007
http://pierogidiaries.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 28, 2007. While at the party, the other interns signed up for a camping trip to Slovakia this weekend. I missed out on the sign-up session, but I've decided to go to Krakow this weekend without them. So there. I'm going to get a train after work tomorrow. In Poland giving Bill directions from the PA Turnpike to the Day's Inn on Banksville Rd. How absurd. How is this my life? Monday, June 25, 2007. After bowling with the Aiesecers on Saturday afternoon (I'm bowling . . . in Pola...2) Jackie...

The Pierogi Diaries: August 2007
http://pierogidiaries.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 3, 2007. Don't Cry For Me, Wroclawskie. This is officially, officially my last post from Poland. After a week of goodbye parties and reflection, I think I'm ready to blow this popcicle stand. My flight leaves in four hours. Tuesday night was my official goodbye party, held at Strefa 0 (where else? And now I'm on to other good things. From this point on, consider the title of this blog "The Falafel Diaries." See you in the holy land. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The Building JJ Collective.

Sportscentric: May 2009
http://sportscentric.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 29, 2009. When it comes to sports brand icons and their TV commercials, more often than not, I’m impressed by Nike, perplexed by Gatorade, and fascinated by Adidas. While Nike continues to blast down the road of consistently strategic and surprising work, and Gatorade rambles along a twisty turny highway in search of the Holy Grail of millenial connection, Adidas keeps crossing the street and trying different routes. They look and sound different, which is good (voiced by Chali 2na from Juras...

Sportscentric: A message for Reebok: You suck.
http://sportscentric.blogspot.com/2009/11/message-for-reebok-you-suck.html
Wednesday, November 11, 2009. A message for Reebok: You suck. You suck for taking a brand with great potential and doing 17 random campaigns over 15 years. You suck for spending 100’s of millions of dollars on properties like the NFL and barely ever activating them. You suck for being so desperate for attention that you do an ad like this:. 8220;Make your boobs jealous? Make your boobs jealous. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Sportscentric: December 2009
http://sportscentric.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 28, 2009. When one virtual door closes, another opens. Michael changed his sport. Cassius changed his name. Tiger changed his swing (insert your joke here). Marv Albert changed his clothes. Carlton Fisk just changed his Sox. Renee Richards changed sexes. Sugar Ray changed his mind (a few times). Kenny Lofton changed teams (17 times, an MLB record). And in my experience, change is good. So as of today, SportsCentric is retired. And Twist Your Thinking. Labels: change is good.

Sportscentric: February 2009
http://sportscentric.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 25, 2009. Tiger returns. Golf happy. Golfers sad. You could argue that when Michael Jordan retired (each time he retired), he opened up a world of possibilities for other NBA players. But MJ did have Scottie, and there were even times when he needed the spot up jump shooters like Bobby Hansen and John Paxson to win a game. And now he’s back. After almost a year away from the game rehabbing his injured knee. This ad from Nike captures that feeling perfectly. Sometimes, the assignments ...

Sportscentric: July 2009
http://sportscentric.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 25, 2009. Not the best an ad can get. As a marketer, there’s a lot to like about this commercial for Gillette. Their cast is diverse in many ways, from skin color to home country. The music is ambitious. And they seem to have a solid strategy: no matter who you are, from superstar to everyman, you have doubts inside you, and you have confidence inside you; these products will make you look and feel good so the confident side can win. A lot going for this ad. I just wish I could like it.
