I could agree with KRE8TIVE on this. and yes Leo Burnett is a big deal! but lots of big deal agencies even here in America, do make last minute ads that aren't that great.

happy day everyone:) stay cool!

you mean .. elf-acclaimed, self-proclaimed, egoistic, feeling superb, hypocr*te, super blabber, picasso-looking kharoof logo-making idiot *secertary general head of the united advertising people and mentor

Well here goes ur originality ! instead of coming up with a new concept of a blog .. you find a well established one, email them as the secretary general of IAA kuwait chapter (they don't have an idea how this organization sleeps) they say ok, THEN ITS OK TO COPY ? or imitate ! so if i copy an advert off of the same network, yet a different agency.. i am not copying ? i am not imitating ? off course we are partners .. yet !! i copied my partner *wink

About you and your IAA conspiracy theory.. we dont care, we dont care even if you reached as a president, all we care about is our work, our industry, and our clients..

but you ? who are you ? what if you are the sleeping beauty of IAA ? so what ? do you think you are worth the effort for us to join (1)as members of the IAA (2) vote for people who look down to the industry and (3) looked down upon without anything in return ?

do you read the word "idiot" on our heads ?

do i need to reveal myself ? do i really have to ? for what ? for you ? i do have the right to keep myself anonymous, by the way.. u do have that right as well, but your i understand your on a ego trip.. but wait let me remind you of something .. if you think your famous, and Hollywood level of stardom, think again.. go to cannes and lets see how famous are you .. no one will know you ! in this blog no one knows you..

yeah .. you should thank me and kre8tive, we are giving u such great publicity .. attention w4or3

[sarcasm]

As for the definitions of copy cat, lateral thinking, etc. have you noticed that the source of everything is mentioned on my site? Did you notice that as a Mentor I am stating the definitions so that you and others would understand the terminology behind the concepts?

In addition if you don’t think (and you really don’t) that I am not worthy of being an IAA board member then what can you do about it? May I suggest that you first become a member (I will approve your application) and in the upcoming election you can vote for someone else ;)

I never claimed to be the best or the only creative in the Kuwait Advertising Industry…if you read my comments on this same blog and others you would see that I actually praise work that deserves praising and enlighten others about copy cat ads…you do read? I mean read comments.

On a final note…remind me again who are you; oh I forgot I must be getting old…you are too chicken to reveal yourself to me so that I don’t get you fired and never get hired in Kuwait so enjoy being invisible :*
