2004 is about to end, and a new year will begin. In retrospect, it was the year that brought us the following greatness:

  • Janet�s titty
  • Michael Jackson�s pee-pee
  • Pimp my Ride � or the rise of Spinning rims on everything
  • Mary Kate in food rehab � thin is in, too thin is out
  • I got an iPod � just after Brian, just before everyone else
  • The rise and fall (off the face of the earth) of William Hung
  • confirmation of no WMD�s and the �oh, really� that followed
  • Proof that Fundamentalist Christens are willing to sacrifice their children so that gays can�t get married
  • The Red Sox (only people from Boston really care anyway)
  • Mars rovers � and the aliens who love them
  • Dead women with babies and the people named Scott Peterson who kill them
  • Fahrenheit 911, Bush�s Brain, Supersize Me
  • the plummeting value of the American Dollar
  • goodbye to Christopher Reeves, Ray Charles, Marlon Brando, Ronald Regan, Yasser Arafat, the guy from Law and Order
  • Kobe, Shaq, and a crazy white girl who got it in the end
  • gmail – I have ten “invites”, let me know if you want one
  • and of course the greatest event of 2004�HALO 2

I�m sure I missed something, and I�m sure you will let me know what it was.

Have a great Dec 31st, and a greater Jan 1, 2005

Your friend Michael

Christmas Loot – 2004

So it’s been a slow week here in the Wild West. Jon Regul fell victim to the flu, then I suffered the flu’s fate and my body temperature topped off at 101 degrees F. Today is a short day, I looking to leave at 1pm. Everything is done, so I�m just waiting for everybody else to cut loose, then I�m gonna cut loose, foot loose, put on your Sunday shoes.

To day I received two Christmas gift cards for the people in the office: 1) $15 from Starbucks, and 2) $200 from Best Buy. I think I�ll talk an xbox and a chi venti latte, whipped, soy, cream in my mouth, down my chin and all over my tits. Yummmm!

Any, hope you all have a nice extended weekend and Page and Vanessa, have a nice trip, stay cool, see you next year.

The Whole World � Outkast

The whole world took a sick day. There was no traffic, no one in the parking garage. Three of the four AE�s are �sick� today. I haven�t received a call from anybody today. Not one call, it noon. These are the worst days; it�s so boring. I�ve searched every site on my favorites list TWICE. Nothings changed. So I will write to you all, even though you are all at home, �sick�.

Thursday was the Bay City Television�s Holiday party. It was held in San Diego. That means I have to get to San Diego to enjoy this event. In fact, all the AE�s in the office have to get to San Diego. So we did. Driving to San Diego is not bad. It was a very California day (80�s with endless visibility). That was the highlight of the trip. Diving to San Diego was the highlight.

It�s hard to be close to people who work 150 miles away. Much less, people who work in sales (the fakest and most shallow of all people in business). So as I enter the sales office with the other AE�s, everybody is chummy and such, but I am ignored. Why? Because I am the sales assistant, I can do nothing for them and they know that and show me no respect. Fuck them. Time to eat.

Phil�s Roster of San Diego catered the party. Sadly, Phil over roasted the chicken. Brian would have loved it; it was so dry. Covering it in sauce was an act of futility. So far, the foods a bust, the company is shallow and talking about golf, closing the deal at the Harley dealership, and a desire to bang the chicks in traffic and accounting. Now it�s time for the prizes.

Holiday parties, from my understanding, are about celebrating your employees for a years worth of work. Some companies give bonuses, some give prizes or gifts. BCTV gives gifts. But it doesn�t spend its� own cash, instead they make a trade deal. Cheapness in the making.

So let�s say you are the ad agency for Best Buy or Good Guys. We come to you and say, �We�ll give you $10,000 worth of TV spots on Fox and UPN in San Diego if you give us $8000 in credit to one of your stores. But we can�t grantee where the spots will run, but the combined total value will be $10,000 for $8000.� Well that was last year, and last year we had some decent prizes. 32� HDTV, iPods, TIVO, complete 7.1 home stereos. All that stuff. Well, the station ran a bunch of ads for the Good Guys in the worst and lowest rated programs. So this year, instead of $8000 worth of prizes, we had $1500 worth of prizes. Including OPEN BOX items. The balance of stuff was leftover swag (swag is free stuff that vendors and ad agencies send to promote movies, TV shows, music artist, etc.) including SKIN t-shirts (Skin was cancelled in the fall of 2003), Married by America posters and T-shirts, and other junk like that.

Whatever, I hope your office holiday party is better than mine, it shouldn�t be too hard to top, but if yours falls short, I have to hear about it, so let me know.

Any suggestions?

Caroline sent me a link to a party at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. What do you think?

Here’s the link: http://www.daskproductions.com/

I know some of you will be out of town, and some will not. We could have a party at 81st street, head to the beach (Santa Monica is cool), viva Las Vegas, or just cry in our beers. Let me know what you think.
