Art Director Fills Office With
Wacky Toys To Appear More
Creative.
CHICAGO— In an obvious attempt to make up for a lack of awards, art director Matt Sarkisian added a number of offbeat toys to his cubicle this week. Among the new additions are a Nerf dart gun, Rock ‘em Sock ‘em Robots and two G.I. Joe dolls cleverly displayed to look as if they are having sex. "I think this shows that I’m crazy and creative and totally unexpected," Sarkisian said. "Perhaps now, people will show me a little fucking respect around here," he added.

Junior Team Not Sure Why
They Have To Put Logo In
Ad At All.
PORTLAND— A junior creative team became enraged this week when their creative director instructed them to put a logo in their print ad before presenting it to the client. "That’s just so old school," said copywriter Doug Pollard. "Yeah, let’s be all literal and shit," added his partner Amir Vaswani. The proposed ad for a local restaurant chain has no headline or copy, just a blurred image of a woman on rollerblades skating toward what appears to be a church choir. "Geez, guess we have to spell it out for everyone," said Vaswani. No word yet on whether the team will include the logo or not.
