Riddle me this, Vet

Napoleon and Josie had to go to the vet last Thursday because Napoleon needed a check-up on his tooth extraction, and Josie was due for a check-up...and this coincided with taping the show, so we boarded them at the Vet's for the day for an additional cost.

So, a few days later, our dogs start coughing, and they are up half the night in misery, and it gets to the point yesterday where Josie actually sounds like she's dying. So I take her in, mainly to make sure that she wasn't--in fact--dying.

So, they have Kennel Cough--which dogs usually get...(you guessed it) from being in kennels with other dogs who have kennel cough.

This is particularly ironic because I paid for Josie to be vaccinated AGAINST kennel cough last Thursday, a visit which led to yesterday's additional Vet appointment (plus boarding again because they weren't sure where they could fit her into the schedule) plus all the antibiotics to cure something that they contracted AT THE VET.

Does that seem wrong to anyone else?

Marketing Tips 2006

A compiled list of tips from marketers and advertising people on developing campaigns, ideas, etc.

Golden Globes

Did Michelle Williams get the Sean Penn personality transplant? She knows she was on Dawson's Creek, right?

While I'm sure that Brokeback Mountain is appropriately serious and depressing...just because you are nominated for a drama doesn't mean you can't smile for the rest of your life. It's not YOUR life story. It's fiction...like A Million Little Pieces.

Two latrines in Soldier Field

Went to the Bears game yesterday.

I've never seen so many drunk people in my life going into the game. And I went to Notre Dame...we're sort of of known for that.

There was also a major toilet debacle with the mens' rooms having literally hundreds of people in line at any given moment for the entire game. (Apparently more men go to football games than women. Shocking.) So Brendan was stuck in line for the entire second quarter.

It took him so long that while I was waiting, I was able to enjoy the entire first act of a half-naked African Ant-Eater ritual performed by this really old drunk guy with his shirt off surrounded by a drum corps...

...which ultimately might have been worth the trip.
