The scroll
Behold Jack Kerouac's mighty scroll he typed up in two weeks of pure writing 'On the Road'.
Definitely came in handy when it was my turn to churn out my dissertation.
Computers are too quick to rid us of our mistakes.
I like it when they're left on the page infront of me, with secret misspellings not popping out because of the red line beneath them.

Found it.
One thing i regret, is not buying the economist when this was it's front cover.
I love it for nerdy reasons mostly.
He looks like a superhero.
Except he's better than that.
He's real, with a real cause.
His mask represents the face of every Iranian fighting for an uncorrupt government.
And its just a simple piece of coloured cloth.

Stagnant times
I liked this video when it came out in 2002.
I still like it now.
This video I think was ahead of its time.
I think it'd fit in now.
Saying that, I think its past it's date too.
The animation is like the super nintendo system of the 90's.
So is this ahead of it's time or past it?
The same applies to a lot of things right now (for example fashion).
Are we moving forward by moving backwards?
Or are we in the age of the Tribute?

Mr. W
I think the reveal needs to be made a bit more obvious, but it's a great idea, and its been beautifully executed.
(Except for the bit where they use Times New Roman!)
Dixons
On my way to work I saw this at both Caledonian road station and Holborn station.
My favourite thing about this is it's strap line: 'The last place you want to go'.
My least favourite thing is 'most happening department store'.
(It just makes me think of Mrs. Doubtfire.)
It's got a nice cheekiness.
The other two in the campaign are fine too, except they're pretty much exactly the same.
