The Social Media Backlash Has Begun

Joe Sedelmaier
Legendary commercial director Joe Sedelmaier will be in Dallas tonight at the Dallas Angelika (Mockingbird Station) screening some of his classic work — Wendy's "Where's The Beef?" spots and the fast-talker for FedEx among them. It's part of the USA Film Festival.
I believe it's $10 to get in. There's a question/answer afterward and cocktails at the Margarita Ranch downstairs. For more information, IM Kyle. He may know.
I may try to go. If you're up for it, let me know, okay?

Final Review
Kiran has a problem. Well, he has many problems. But this one isn't sexual in nature. No, it's about the final review.
He's going to be out on production the first two weeks of May. We've talked about it, and wanted to know what you guys thought of having the review either Saturday, May 9 or Sunday, May 10. That's really the only time he's going to be here. Plus it really isn't cutting your time short--you still have dead week to prepare.
So... which one will it be? We're recommending Saturday evening, say 5-ish. We're still trying to figure out a venue.
Post your replies in "comments."
Thank you, and pray for Kiran.

BILBOOYAH!RD
From Adweek:
BMW makes an audacious move here in its battle against rival Audi. The latter apparently erected a billboard taunting, "Your move, BMW," for its redesigned 2009 A4, on a thoroughfare in Santa Monica. Shortly thereafter, in a bit of inspired luxury auto one-upmanship, signage for BWM's M3 sedan appeared across the street with the line, "Checkmate." It's a fun, in-your-face concept that's fast earning kudos in auto and ad media worldwide. (Juggernaut Advertising, an independent agency in Santa Monica, created the response ad for BMW of Santa Monica.) Audi should just shrug it off and respond with an ad proposing "Two out of three?"

Somebody is Teabagging Senators
Teabags Of Doom Inundate Senate
Just put them in your mouth and suck on them for a while.Huzzah, another contribution from a brave Senate staffer who has suffered the terrible onslaught of anthrax (or “tea”) bags from voters who dislike taxes. All of these heavily irradiated teabags represent Freedom from Tyranny.
Note that many people opted not to send actual tea but just the little paper sleeve they came in, and one teabagger thought that a bag of fucking Vanilla Chai would really stick it to the man. This is the most terrifying bit of mail an elected official could hope to receive, besides maybe a goat’s head in a box.
Our informant, “Bilbo ‘Baggs,” tells us that this is a pretty representative haul from a typical mail run, which happens four or five times a day. Goodness gracious, that is a lot of anthrax to sort through.
