Sears Gifts for Guys: Twitter Party, Fri. 10/26, 1:00- $800 in prizes

Guys can be a hard group to purchase gifts for, I should know, I’m a guy.  Until recently my default answers for “What should I get you for…” was socks and underwear-true story.  One holiday my wife said, I’m not getting you socks or underwear, just tell me something that you want or need.  It was then that I got much better about the communication of gifting.  A side benefit of said conversation is that I now get much better gifts, but I have to buy my own socks and underwear.

Swifter: Man Up is clever, funny, great advertising aimed at men

America loves a good comeback story. Back when the Olympics were on television there was a series of commercials with the tag line ‘Thank you, Mom.  P&G, Proud Sponsor of Moms’.  Prior to that there was the whole Pampers, so easy a dad can do it campaign.  Personally, neither campaign spoke to me in a negative or positive light.  The second one was a bad ad campaign and the first had a bad tag line, but I could understand who they were aiming for.
