Taking a break for the holidays, CWs. MC will be back Monday, Jan 2nd. Until then, may Santa leave presents under your tree. May you survive relatives. May you find something good to read.
Mike Latshaw
Mike is a copywriter at Brunner in Pittsburgh. He put mullets on parking meters for Supercuts. “Has your haircut expired?” That’s funny. Anything with mullets is funny.

Bob Rickert
Bob is a copywriter/CD in Boulder and a fellow Duck (go Ducks!). In his Outdoor section, he has a campaign for the Oregon Sports Hall of Fame that features “the longest copy outdoor ads in American advertising.” About 10,500 words each. That’s what we like to see on MC. Only one complaint. Wish we could zoom in to read all of those beautiful words.

MC Faves Week 3 – Andrew Ault
Andrew is VP ECD at NBCUniversal/ECD of Integrated Media. Check out his rez: CP+B, WK, JWT, Leagas, Fallon. Then check out his work. Then maybe cry a little. Then feel better. Then cry a little more.

MC Faves Week 3 – Andy Kadin
Andy is a copywriter in Los Angeles. He has magic writing powers that MC doesn’t have: he can write awesome lyrics. Check out the first video on his site, Prius Goes Plural, and the last, for Google Offers. Love ‘em. So much other great work up on his site, too. Plus the site itself is rad. Winner.

MC Faves Week 3 – Grant Smith
Grant is a senior creative director at BBDO NY, and who knows if he’s had the time or need to update his portfolio site in awhile. MC doesn’t care. The writing in Print + OOH (Red Stripe) and More TV (FedEx) is so genius, Grant can now add MC Faves Week 3 to his list of accomplishments, right between London International and Radio Mercury. Or maybe not.

Jeff Pospichal
Jeff is a copywriter at 22squared in Tampa. He’s got a ton of Buffalo Wild Wings work in his book, including a print campaign for their 18 signature sauces. Which got MC to thinking, how has MC never been to a Buffalo Wild Wings? Hello, New Year’s Resolution #1. Nice to meet you.

John Ennis
John is a student copywriter at Creative Circus who’s about to graduate. (Got a theme going this week.) You have to like a creative who is both confident and self-depricating. Someone who can dress it up and laugh in the mirror. And judging from John’s site (check out his “About I” link), he does both. Look out advertising, here comes John Ennis.

Christian Feist
Christian is a 22-year-old student copywriter who’s graduating from Miami Ad School Europe at the end of December. His site’s called The Banner Theory, and it’s crazy on the eyes. Like Netscape Navigator circa 1995. Hilarious.
