Congratulations, Mr. President

Congratulations President Obama on winning the coveted Titanium Prize for your presidential advertising at the Cannes Advertising Festival. I'm sure it must be one of your proudest moments.

Also congratulations are in order for Mahmoud Ahmadinejad who won the Uranium Prize, and Kim Jong Il who won the Plutonium Prize.

Thanks to the great George Parker for finding this.

Talent, intelligence, and virtue are three qualities that have absolutely no correlation.

Michael Jackson's death is a good reminder of what a freak show the entertainment business has become. Michael was an astounding talent, and an alarming human being.

By the way, Michael's doctor is going to wind up in deep doo-doo.

The Bob Channel
While we're making predictions, TAC predicts that the internet will be a short-lived technology. Soon (within 20 years) we'll all have our own "channel" in which all aspects of our lives will be stored and broadcast.

My Favorite Twits
I thought it would be a nice idea to acknowledge some of the people who follow me on Twitter. So here's a little collage I put together. Sorry I couldn't get everyone in. For a larger view, click on it.

More thanks, in advance, to the great George Parker for not calling me a douchenozzle for doing this.
