CP+B+me

So, big news in the ad industry today. And by big news I mean, no one's really noticed but me. But still, it's pretty awesome news.

Since leaving Wieden, I've enjoyed not only seeing the American West but also the American West of advertising. I've dropped by a few agencies, corresponded with even more.

But the cake was certainly taken by the folks at Crispin Porter + Bogusky out in Boulder, Colorado. And they took my cake.

OK. That was weird.

Anyway, the big news is that I've taken a position as an interactive writer at Crispin Porter. It's an immense honor and a huge opportunity, and I can't wait to get out there and start tearing it up.
I went through an intense gauntlet yesterday. It started with a 6 am flight out to Denver and trip out to the Crispin warehouse. Eleven interviews and nine hours later, I survived. Then I had to follow it with dinner and drinks. Definitely a long day, but I had the chance to sit down with guys like Andrew Keller, Rob Reilly, Jeff Benjamin and others. It was the first long day of many to come. But that's why I'm stoked.

Let the games begin.

Good to hear you well. I'll be in dodge city soon for a shoot. Maybe we'll meet up and eat cow testicles. They're local fare.
