The Ad Contrarian's Fourth Anniversary

It's the fourth anniversary of this thing.

Ten days into it I thought I had run out of things to say. Fortunately, advertising is a very long-running comedy series. There always seems to be new material.

I have to be honest and say that the 4 years I have spent writing this blog have probably given me as much personal satisfaction as the more than 35 years I've spent in the ad business. I know there's something very wrong with that, but I'm not sure what it is.

Thanks to all who have taken the effort to check in here from time to time. I know you don't always agree with me -- and I'd be discouraged if you did -- but I hope I've given you some stuff to think about.

Thanks for four terrific years.
