creativity in 1987 was not fueled by kale, kimchi, boba, avocado, soy milk, plant-based burger, gluten-free pizza...

sean kelly, a writer of lethal wit whom i met at the national lampoon, died this week. sean's words always leapt out with their precision, originality, and comic flourish. just ask his kids. 'the acrid smell of burning bridges.'

the early '80s was a golden age of spending on tv commercials. this shoot also included a rope bridge, a bed of nails, and an eagle that got loose. (rest assured, george survived. if he hadn't, i'd have covered it.)

tired of existential dread? take a brief journey with my cartoon strips back to the ad world of the '80s where your main concern might be finding an actress whose lips please the client.
