No, you certainly can’t.

Last words spoken by John F. Kennedy in reply to Nellie Connally, wife of Governor John Connelly, commenting “You certainly can’t say that the people of Dallas haven’t given you a nice welcome, Mr. President.

Critically injured Diana was reported to murmur the words, “oh my God,” and after the photographers were pushed away by emergency teams, the words, “leave me alone”.

New Money

If you haven’t heard, people are wanting to redesign the American Currency. I agree. Our bills just don’t say “United States of Fucking America!” We’re America- our bills should be cooler and more fly than any other country. Good design inspires and sets a mood. The current design says “remember getting ripped off by greedy assholes?”

So spread the word, little bird, and let’s get this ride moving! You can keep up to date here: http://richardsmith.posterous.com/

Melissa Cronk + Bleu = Awesomeballs

Posted in Business, Life, Social by Michael Donovan on January 12, 2009

I got a text from my friend Melissa Cronk the other day. She is now a booker at Bleu Models in LA. Mel is like a cool sister-in-law to me (kinda like a sister… but our disagreements are more spiteful and tasty and our friendship is great but not too good to make things wonky).

I cannot express how excited and proud of her I am! Bleu is already one of the worlds best men’s agencies and Mel is one of the best people so this can only mean that exciting things are going to move forward with everyone! Bleu and Mel both made the right choice.

Yay Melissa!!!!

(this is where we all put lay out a blanket, put her in the middle and flip her in the air while she does somersaults and we yell her name just as a unicorn appears… oh yeah… it’s one of THOSE celebrations!)
