Don't you love ads that communicate the concept without much required reading? I'm loving "A Visual Anagram," the new print campaign from Scrabble. Nice photography too.

I Love Modern Architecture - Green Dreams on Madison Square: New York

New Yorkers are used to living amongst huge skyscrapers around Madison Square Park but they have probably never seen anything like this. For his first New York building, Daniel Libeskind has proposed a 900+ foot, 54-story glass condo with dripping sky gardens. Libeskind’s creation would swoop up next to, and past, the 700-foot Met Life tower. The green spaces would be… Continue

A couple summers ago, I had the pleasure of visiting the Ankor Wat temples in Siem Reap, Cambodia.

There are over one thousand temples in the Angkor area including the magnificent Angkor Wat, said to be the world's largest single religious monument. The temple complex was… Continue

Who's Sports Illustrated Sportsman of the Year? Our Favorite Swimmer, Michael Phelps!

Who doesn't remember the Olympics because of Michael Phelps? He kept us glued to our TVs night after night as we watched in disbelief, history being made. As a fellow swimmer, I came to appreciate Phelps not because he is an American hero but because of the journey it took for him to get there.… Continue

Mattel's Little Mommy Real Loving Baby Cuddle & Coo Doll

What does it sound like this doll is saying to you?





Now, to me, and a whole butt load of other people- it sounds like this little creepy looking doll is saying "Islam is the light"

It's December, Do You Know What You're Buying Your Girl for Christmas? (video)

This ad must play like a horror movie for dudes.

Just in time for the Holidays, JCPenney has released its "Beware of the Doghouse" commercial. Although a little long, the beginning is pretty funny.

I happen to think extra RAM for the computer ("Thanks for the memories". HA!) is very romantic.

In his first New York solo exhibition, entitled The Architect’s House, Eamon's pieces explore his fascination with architecture and landscape. According to the artist, “Society traps us with our desires." For O’Kane, a home is not just a home, and green rolling hills are not just green rolling… Continue
