Pompeii
A corn-roaster at work in Elliots Beach, Besant Nagar. A fresh, just beginning to ripen ear of corn is roasted over hot coals and flavoured with salt and lime-juice. A fantastic snack. Fuck! I miss Besant Nagar and the beach and the heat of Chennai.

Why, where are you now.
I do miss it.
So bad.
I am atleast gonna visit the beach 3 times in 2 weeks, while I am in Chennai. Even if I have to go by buses.

why do all good books on advertising say break the rules and throw out all that you hold dear? isn’t it possible to create great advertising holding what you hold dear close to you? hmm. thanks for the review. have read the book. loved it. almost as much as the copy book. how about a review of the copy book? i see you take requests. what say?

Avi, probably because if you throw out the rules, you wind up thinking in fresh creative patterns. An advertising approach takes off and then everyone else jumps on it, and you no longer have a fresh approach! Then it’s time for some fresh thinking again, which defines the new rules of operation all over again, ad infinitum, or should I say ad nauseum?;-O
