There is a new airline, called, no joke, Derrie-air. Basically, the less you and your luggage weigh, the less your flight costs. So, i guess that if you are a ‘little larger than life’, then you can make flights cheaper by turning up in only your pants. Excellent.

This event happens once a year in Gloustershire, England. A big round cheese is rolled down a big hill, and the closest one to catching up with it, wins the cheese. Simple.

Check THAT puppy out.

I especially love how the My Kleenex Tissue-logo corresponds with the headline underneath.

The sun loses about 400 million tonnes per second. However even after 2 billion years, this loss constitutes only one 10-thousandth of the suns total mass.

Mental. The mind boggles eh?

Check out this link to see the end result of an American mans dream… to build a bike-plane. Is it a bike? Is it a plane? NO… It’s bike-plane boy!
Well, i guess the actual result is just a really, really heavy bike… Anyway, at least it is a tribute to the American people hey? hmm…

During my journeys I often encounter people with strange stories. Especially those who roam the world with almost no money in their pocket amaze me. Well, most of them have jaw-dropping looks, like the one girl I meet in Krabi (Thailand), that was Brazilian, works half of the year in Sydney and then goes to SE Asia for fun. But that’s another story I might tell someday…

Back to the I’ve-been-here-and-there-and-worked-on-every-kontinent-people. Within them the I’m-a-seasonal-worker-in-Ibiza kind is a really interesting specimen. Always complaining, how hard it is, and no fun involved, etc. But in the end. After a few beers or buckets of happiness, he/she finally unravels all of it. Like this guy:
Here’s one conquestadore, that’s job-hunting in Ibiza for his first time.

Yeah, you’d wish to be young again. And nice self-marketing.

Frank Zappa’s the MAN! No doubt about that. He defended copyright and freedom of speech, long before it was considered necessary. Where are you, dude? Mankind needs you! Here’s an old vid for all the youngsters, that didn’t get to know him. After seeing that, go buy his “Sheik Yerbouti” album and be amazed about the lyrics, which can easily beat most nowadays writers in the ass. And guts. And anyever else. Therewhile I go and attend my baby snake…

Here is another beautiful campaign from Wieden & Kennedy for Old Spice, which makes me a manfume wearing unexperienced sissy-man.

But how the heck should I know all about american presidents in the first place?

Anywhoo, sad thing is, me and Jake were working very hard on a campaign at the beginning of last year, which was as close to this one as one could get. We did it for a big german client and he liked it all the way through and was impressed and supportive and smiling and cheering and proud of his own brand until he shots the whole thing down and produced a 25° TVC with another agency. Big difference though: our testimonial was William Shattner.
I hope you see this, big german client.

I hope you see this and cry.

I hope you see this and give your job to the guy who’s dancing in the streets in front of our office to the sound of cars honking at him because he could do it at least as good as you.

Nobody prepared me for the psychadelic-retro-coal-mining-experience I would encounter in Essen this saturday.

After strict obidience to the navigation woman, the location was reached from Duesseldorf in about 30 minutes. A non-profit association reworked the mines and all the gigantic surroundings plus machines. Finally they are staging an exhibiton on how society will develop in the next few years and decades.

I always adore those scientist and visionary minds, which can predict clear visions of technology after a long period of time. I can’t even predict the development of my paycheck next year. Or my digestion the next day.
