Monday, September 7th, 2009

The Moscow News goes for the jugular vein with their new ad campaign. Edgy and bold they’re definitely making a statement and getting attention with this “paper mache” mixed media ad campaign.

Is Barack Obama Superman Or A Machine?

Tuesday, May 26th, 2009

obama-superman

You got to hand it to the Swiss they call it like they see it. Now that Obama is what most people would consider the most powerful man on the planet, it makes one wonder… how about the universe?

I suppose only time will tell. Is Obama more man or steel? With the entire weight of the world on his shoulders I’d say he’d have to be 10% man, 25% carbon fiber, 15% organic matter, 25% machine and 25% silicon! To be completely honest with you I could care less what he’s made of but rather what he’ll make of the world.

He certainly can’t do it alone though… can the rest of us step up? I’ve already started my transition got my silicon implants yesterday and am upgrading my joints to carbon fiber next week. Super power, super knowledge look out universe… super humans!

gazette

Normally they say a picture is worth a thousand words but we don’t even have to go that far with this one now do we? Advertising agency: Bleublancrouge from Montreal, Canada summed things up pretty nicely with just 6 words, and I don’t think anyone could have said it better, do you?
