good one, shel!

Shel Israel on the state of the Press release:

The peo­ple who use them are fewer. The peo­ple who ignore them are more. The peo­ple who want to make money wri­ting them seem to remain about the same in numbers.

These num­bers could apply to SO MANY indus­tries. Heh.
[Bonus Link:] “Hugh McLeod does these really funny dra­wings on the backs of busi­ness cards. I mean funny as in odd, strange. I mean funny as in… huh? I have a hard time unders­tan­ding most of them. Maybe it’s because I’m a girl.”

"Hugh's Daily Cartoon" Newsletter. A new cartoon sent out every weekday morning to your inbox [RSS version here.]. A wee chuckle to start your day off right etc.

    boy, i’m a girl too. and i’m gonna give it a try.
    cuz unders­tan­ding (or, maybe, this trying) Hugh McLeod’s dra­wings is my new night time hobby when sleep is lost somewhere on the way to my bed.
    ps. you had me at these simply words “i want to be with you” ;)

    That Kat Her­ding spoof is a real hoot.
    I espe­cially enjo­yed the parts about scre­wing for sta­tio­nery, and where she pro­vi­des a mailto: link for sur­fers to explain clue­train, obviously so that there wouldn’t be any messy dis­cus­sion on her pretty site.
    Whose sense of humor is res­pon­si­ble for this? I’d like to see their next project!

    Well, *I’m* res­pon­si­ble for it. Silly boy.

    Hhhmmm…what does being female have to do with art appre­cia­tion (or lack of)? Me thinks I’m con­fu­sed (a regu­lar state).
