  As someone whose new baby will emerge from his wife in 5 weeks or so, I laughed at this, then cried a bit, then laughed again. I think I’ll go and lie down for a bit now.

    Don’t take a moment of sleep for granted… mine came exactly five weeks early. (Two, at the same time.)

Usual dilemma for an ad creative: do I want to create an ad that will, y’know, sell more of the product, or do I want to create something eye-catching that my narrow circle of peers will coo over?

I remember an ad in a computer magazine from the 1980′s for a desktop database query system that had a similar image, of a man’s face with an eyeball in it. It still gives me bad dreams.
