Big Boi, one half of super group Outkast, is the new face of Coca-Cola’s “Full Throttle Fury” Energy Drink. Big Boi has clearly cashed that check already. You can tell by the released statement in which he said:
“Full Throttle Fury” appeals to men like me who consider themselves real and authentic, whose work style is to go all the way. I spend most of my days in the recording studio or involved in new projects. Full Throttle Fury has a great taste and provides me the energy to get through my busy day.”
Seriously. How can anyone say “Full Throttle Fury” and not feel like some sort of anime character intoning their battle cry?

I'll spare you my analysis of the congressional bailout plan, but I do know something about what happens to agencies during a downturn. I've been through at least three recessions and hopefully learned a few things along the way. In each case, I'd say my naivete was stripped away, and I've had to accept some unpleasant realities.
“State of panic we hang by a thread/
The earth will be safe when we’re all dead/
Call me pessimistic, the glass is empty/
After the blast a new society/
Fear spawns greed and see what it brings/
A world where no one enjoys the small things/”
Oh don’ you just love BioHazard? Sigh. Hard, hard rock is so appropriate for today’s news:
Lay-offs abound. The number of jobs cut were “33% higher than the same month last year, when 71,739 cuts” took place. The Euro jobless rate slid to 7.5%. Still, the total fall-out from the banking crisis has yet to be calculated with Lehman Brothers, Merrill Lynch, AIG, Wachovia and Washington Mutual still in states of flux.
The pitch for the bailout has been rebranded. It’s now a “rescue.” Look at our business in action! The FDIC wants to temporarily boost bank deposit limits over $100000.
Housing values continue to drop, but consumer confidence saw an uptick. Wonder if they were including the last week of September in those figures?
City governments are cutting back on programs due to the sudden loss of credit, other factors and tighter credit isn’t helping the auto industry one bit.
I’m such a Debbie Downer.

LONDON – Condé Nast is to launch an as yet unnamed twice-yearly style magazine edited by former Pop editor-in-chief Katie Grand.
The Guardian has posted the Country Life butter commercial starring John Lydon (aka Johnny Rotten) that we’d heard was in the works. It’s actually quite depressing to see the former Sex Pistol in his bathrobe gushing about his breakfast, but he doesn’t care what anyone thinks. “People know I only do things that I want to or that I believe in, and I have to do it my way,” Lydon says. “I’ve never done anything like this before and never thought I would, but this Country Life ad was made for me and I couldn’t resist the opportunity.”
