The Friday Salute – 9/20/13

Raise a Martini or 2 This Week – “Pioneers of Doo and Rock” Edition
The pop, tech, NOLA, music and marketing culture you should be celebrating at happy hour:

➔ Biggest news of the week iOS7 and the new iPhone 5S… So intuitive that your cat can use it.
➔ More tech? Ok. Robocop is back. Yes, they remade it. No, it actually looks good.
➔ And while you’re watching, the new CBGB movie about the iconic rock club premiered on DirecTV.
➔ Just in time for the massive CBGB Festival in October…Rock lives again!
➔ It’s manly…Like Old Spice and the return of the man your man could smell like.
➔ What’s less manly? Claire Danes and “My So-Called Life”… and Audi and “Homeland” references.
➔ Speaking of government secrets and ObamaCare… Creepy Uncle Sam is gonna’ get you.
➔ But drink enough rum and you won’t even notice… Then go look for proof that the Kraken exists.
➔ So keep your head above water… The brain amoeba is unfortunately real but enters via the nose.
➔ What’s worse than that… The sweet, tear-jerking Thai ad you’ve been hearing about.
➔ More tears, you say? Done… With an unconditional stink-free guarantee from Poo-Pourri.
➔ And also in the stink-free category: The bored guy who redesigned all 32 NFL team logos.
➔ Because sports inspire… Like Ford’s trophy on the square. Gooooooaaaaaalllll.
