15 minutes with @United CEO Scott Kirby. No talk of jets, lost luggage or airline mergers.
Only family, books, sports, and how staying in shape after 50 is it's own kind of flex.
Especially with such a short window, quickly connecting over some mutual interest always leads to better work.

Nope. This isn't AI. Some kids really do enjoy flavors other than butter and pasta.

"Every Ratboys album is good." So says Stereogum.
For a kid who grew up in the 90's, this Chicago quartet channels my CD collection of the time: Julian Hatfield, Belly, Throwing Muses. They've played just about all the festivals and just released their 3rd full length album scoring high marks with the hard-to-impress indie crowd.
They were kind. Sweet. Offered me tea and playful as kittens.

The conversation the agency started was for a CGI-based project. I disagreed.
Despite what my favorite CGI studio was telling me, I felt that approach would not offer the organic feel we were looking for. After some holistic thinking, I recommended the agency design and build their own dairy cow.
Once we established how, "Happy"–the ever-leaping Horizon Milk mascot–would look in a standing position, I decided how big to make her, out of what, and how we'd transport her from Indiana, where she was made, to Chicago and Atlanta where we were shooting her. I solved this with the help of Rich Schiller @rich4props and then studio assistant @tblokel .
After the shoot, we boxed up Happy and she was trucked away to HQ. So, if anyone knows where Happy is today, I'd love to visit. @leoburnett@horizonorganic

Trade ads are an inside joke. What is he even working on? Well, it's a heat pump. Why is there a desert aquarium there? Ah! Therein lies the punchline.

Crossing my fingers for these virtuoso Chicago musicians–my occasional collaborators–Third Coast Percussion on their nomination at the 2026 Grammy's.
Add another one to your trophy case gentlemen. 🏆 @thirdcoastpercussion
I’ve been chill on Instagram about my political thoughts. I think Donald Zuck might be listening. Over coffee I’d have more to say.
But when one bike shop sparked a worldwide day of remembrance for Alex Pretti, Chicago turned out–all wet and frigid–to give voice joining 200+ other rides worldwide. @bikegridnow@angrycatfish
