		<title>Viral videos grab valuable attention.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the blog entry previous to this one, Alan discussed how to aid marketing efforts with attractive, creative vehicle wraps. This article also touches on vehicle modification, but in a considerably different light.
Recently, a client decided to pull a legendary prank on an employee. The employee was told his company car needed to be detailed [...]]]></description>

		<title>Start your engines.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In an uncertain economy many businesses let their advertising efforts idle while waiting for the green flag to drop. I hate to say if that’s you, your competition has already passed you by. While you’ve saved gas others are revving up and getting their message in front of your audience, lap after lap. 
Effective advertising [...]]]></description>

		<title>Growth spurt.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[[See post to watch QuickTime movie]
My son just completed kindergarten. In the span of one year, he has grown from a barely turned 5-year-old whose writing was just legible and drawings were basic stick figures to a determined child whose handwriting is better than most adults and drawings are detailed images of spaceships and ninjas.

		<title>Eyes wide open.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
As long as I can remember I&#8217;ve been in and out of my parents&#8217; offices on a weekly to daily basis. Part of everyday life, from dinner table conversations to talk of me going into the family business, it&#8217;s been in my blood for quite some time. It wasn&#8217;t until last week, starting as an [...]]]></description>

		<title>Last word on a bad word.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I wrote a while back about David Foster and his gratuitous use of “F-bombs” in his memoir. At the time I indicated I had thoughts on people who have this propensity and would comment soon. But I quickly lost my mojo and didn&#8217;t follow through.
Well I got my mojo back. I took the family to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fight series—entry #2. Ushering in a new day.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I’m a huge American Idol fan. I love watching how potential is coaxed to life. I was so stimulated by last night’s surprise value lessons I lost sleep. Usher was the Idol mentor for this week’s R&#038;B-inspired show. He did a phenomenal job of coaching the idol “10” to take the stage. He seemed to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Value Lesson</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I’ve thought a lot over the past 24 hours about what drives an agency and the people who work within its walls. We were asked to spend two hours with a group of students from Northeast Magnet High School in Wichita. Jeffrey asked Scott Light and Jo Tomson, art directors here, to prepare for and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sorry Tiger, but it’s my job.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was doing some client billing the other day and stumbled across an email conversation between a client and Alan, one of our account executives. In short, the email volley pertained to the possibility of conflicting logos on a small brochure we were designing. The client told us to just do it and not worry [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fight series—entry #1.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I’m tired. This is a business, but we live with it like it’s a family member. When our clients feel anxious, we feel anxious. Many of our clients have ridden a rollercoaster of anxiety this year-longer sales cycles, lost sales, no sales. Squeezed margins. Fewer profits. We watch clients swallow down panic. Nearly every business [...]]]></description>

		<title>Oprah, Bill and Toni</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just finished reading the memoir of David Foster, music producer extraordinaire. Laurie picked up the book because we&#8217;ve really enjoyed watching/listening to his PBS concert special (now in our disc library) &#8220;David Foster and Friends.&#8221; Even if you don&#8217;t recognize his name, you would most certainly recognize his music. Foster banged out hits with [...]]]></description>
