"IMAGE!"  "Yes. Perception is everything.  If your only tool for perceiving is theory, everything looks like an application (and validation) of your pet theory. Every tool is a mirror of our needs. If your only tool is a mirror, everything looks like you. This is my pet theory," says The Adman.

"UNKNOWN!"  Don't put it off any longer. You're not getting any younger. What have you got to lose?  Everything!  But you're going to lose it all... in the end anyway. Discover the unknown before it discovers you!  Discover this unknown wonder before she is gone!

"ANTI-HERO!"  Remember that famous line from "Sunset Boulevard" (movie) about a forgotten Hollywood has-been dreaming of recapturing her former glory? "I want to thank all the little people.. out there.. in the dark."  This is an ode to all us never-have-beens... out there... alone... in the dark.

"SHE SO SWEET!"  See just how sweet she is! Valentine's coming. Have you met your sweetie? Want to meet mine? Take a look!  She's so sweet my tooth aches. (Groans are heard from The Adman as he looks over my copy.)

"I WAS TRICKED BY MY BOYFRIEND INTO POSING NUDE!"  See and experience her tragic tale of innocent love becoming sadder and maybe a little wiser. Love always turns to pain and anger... eventually, says The Adman.

"GOOD LUCK!"  Everyone wants to be successful. But just how much of success has to do with pure luck? Everyone wants to take as much credit as he can for all his good fortunes so that people will worship him for his success and not merely dumb luck. People largely believe what makes them the most self- satisfied, says The Adman.

"DREAMGIRL!" Got one? Lie. Want one? Lie. Who doesn't? So what is a dreamgirl? What is your dreamgirl? Does she exist? In your dreams, says The Adwoman. Dream on, says The Adman.

"MOTEL: Room by the Sea" is a catchy little drunken sailor song I learned as a merchant marine. And I can still catch myself humming the blasted thing to this very damn day. Ahh.. sweet memories, says The Adman.

"ANTI-ART!"  Death to Art! The written will rule! — Words. Madman seeks mad money for mythmaking. Adman seeks ad money for imagemaking. Not satisfied with your image? Want to make a better, more memorable impression? Not satisfied being a legend only in your own mind? I can help, says The Adman.

"FAME!"  It's the high school musical about how the whole of life is one big high school popularity contest. She loves Bob Dylan. Bob Dylan loves himself. Now she's finally wised up. And she's off to get her own piece of the glory pie. Life is a raucous and joyful joke, says The Adman.
