Palin's Puzzle

It Could be Worse Monday: Presidential

Franklin Delano Roosevelt served his first term as the president from 1933-1937.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt served his second term as the president from 1937-1941.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt served his third term as the president from 1941-1945.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt served his fourth term as the president from 1945 until his death in 1947.

After Roosevelt's death, the newly Republican 80th United States Congress desired to establish a firm constitutional provision barring presidents from being elected more than twice. On March 21, 1947, the Twenty-second Amendment was passed:


Amendment XXII

Section 1. No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once. But this article shall not apply to any person holding the office of President when this article was proposed by the Congress, and shall not prevent any person who may be holding the office of President, or acting as President, during the term within which this article becomes operative from holding the office of President or acting as President during the remainder of such term.


It could be worse, the Twenty-second amendment could not exist, and there could be four more years of this:

We Are Very Small

Saw this video a few months ago, and just thought it was phenomenal. If you just think about how small you feel in a big city, now compare that to the state, country, continent planet, and now the universe. You literally are just a little piece of shit…how's that for an ego buster?

Equinox Shoot

Just got back from LA, shooting ads with another art director Kellar Williams. Here's a few behind the scene images from the process. It was pretty awesome to have all these people there making real what my partner and I thought up with our feet up on a couch.

The Beginning of: It Could Be Worse Mondays

In an attempt to force myself to post more to my blog, I'd like to welcome in a new feature to Thank Krichmar, It Could Be Worse Mondays.

We all know that the day we go back to work is a dreaded day. The end of freedom and fun spent Friday, and Saturday and the relaxation of Sunday. But don't let Monday's get you down. Every week I will feature, a video, a picture, or a story to remind you that no matter how shitty your job is your day could be worse.

And I'll try to make sure they get up late Sunday night, or early to welcome you back to your desk:

D-I-Y Child Molestation


Really Creepy Sex Abuse PSA - Watch more free videos

I'm not sure if this is as much a warning to children as to what to look for in signs of child molesters, or an instructional video on how to get kids to get their clothes off. Either way, this guy Mr. Mac has a huge ring of child labored birdhouses, and the only payment is developmental issues.

My friend did this video for this song. I think it's pretty fucking dope, and wouldn't have the patience to edit this shit. Check him out dennisaliu.com

Justice - Stress



Amazing. This is one of the most emotionally disturbing tracks on the Justice † album. In a good way, and this video is amazing in capturing and portraying the tension in the song. Justice has just gained even more respect from me as artists.

And I want one of those jackets.

New Source of Inappropriate

With my new city and job, come new sources for horribly inappropriate hilarious videos. Welcome Nate Christman to the party.

HBo Title Sequence

So when I started at the Creative Circus I was told that advertising is getting a lot smaller because it doesn't take as many people to do what it used to take so many to do.

Prime example here, this sweet ass 10 minute video about the intro to HBO films. Makes me feel like a lazy fucker.

Half of me wants this to not be a real video, and the other half wants to go buy a horse, so I can get in on this action.

Bacon Flowchart



I love bacon. That makes this great.

Fire your media buyer

So apparently paying attention to where your ad lands is not an issue. Take this one for instance, what are we teaching out children. He who casts the first stone laughs last.

Cartoon Law of Physics (not the author)

Cartoon Laws of Physics
Authorship Unknown

Cartoon Law I
Any body suspended in space will remain in space until made aware of its situation. Daffy Duck steps off a cliff, expecting further pastureland. He loiters in midair, soliloquizing flippantly, until he chances to look down. At this point, the familiar principle of 32 feet per second per second takes over.

Cartoon Law II
Any body in motion will tend to remain in motion until solid matter intervenes suddenly. Whether shot from a cannon or in hot pursuit on foot, cartoon characters are so absolute in their momentum that only a telephone pole or an outsize boulder retards their forward motion absolutely. Sir Isaac Newton called this sudden termination of motion the stooge's surcease.

Cartoon Law III
Any body passing through solid matter will leave a perforation conforming to its perimeter. Also called the silhouette of passage, this phenomenon is the specialty of victims of directed-pressure explosions and of reckless cowards who are so eager to escape that they exit directly through the wall of a house, leaving a cookie-cutout-perfect hole. The threat of skunks or matrimony often catalyzes this reaction.

Cartoon Law IV
The time required for an object to fall twenty stories is greater than or equal to the time it takes for whoever knocked it off the ledge to spiral down twenty flights to attempt to capture it unbroken. Such an object is inevitably priceless, the attempt to capture it inevitably unsuccessful.

Cartoon Law V
All principles of gravity are negated by fear. Psychic forces are sufficient in most bodies for a shock to propel them directly away from the earth's surface. A spooky noise or an adversary's signature sound will induce motion upward, usually to the cradle of a chandelier, a treetop, or the crest of a flagpole. The feet of a character who is running or the wheels of a speeding auto need never touch the ground, especially when in flight.

Cartoon Law VI
As speed increases, objects can be in several places at once. This is particularly true of tooth-and-claw fights, in which a character's head may be glimpsed emerging from the cloud of altercation at several places simultaneously. This effect is common as well among bodies that are spinning or being throttled. A `wacky' character has the option of self-replication only at manic high speeds and may ricochet off walls to achieve the velocity required.

Cartoon Law VII
Certain bodies can pass through solid walls painted to resemble tunnel entrances; others cannot. This trompe l'oeil inconsistency has baffled generations, but at least it is known that whoever paints an entrance on a wall's surface to trick an opponent will be unable to pursue him into this theoretical space. The painter is flattened against the wall when he attempts to follow into the painting. This is ultimately a problem of art, not of science.

Cartoon Law VIII
Any violent rearrangement of feline matter is impermanent. Cartoon cats possess even more deaths than the traditional nine lives might comfortably afford. They can be decimated, spliced, splayed, accordion-pleated, spindled, or disassembled, but they cannot be destroyed. After a few moments of blinking self pity, they reinflate, elongate, snap back, or solidify. Corollary: A cat will assume the shape of its container.

Cartoon Law IX
Everything falls faster than an anvil.

Cartoon Law X
For every vengeance there is an equal and opposite revengeance. This is the one law of animated cartoon motion that also applies to the physical world at large. For that reason, we need the relief of watching it happen to a duck instead.

Cartoon Law Amendment A
A sharp object will always propel a character upward. When poked (usually in the buttocks) with a sharp object (usually a pin), a character will defy gravity by shooting straight up, with great velocity.

Cartoon Law Amendment B
The laws of object permanence are nullified for "cool" characters. Characters who are intended to be "cool" can make previously nonexistent objects appear from behind their backs at will. For instance, the Road Runner can materialize signs to express himself without speaking.

Cartoon Law Amendment C
Explosive weapons cannot cause fatal injuries. They merely turn characters temporarily black and smoky.

Cartoon Law Amendment D
Gravity is transmitted by slow-moving waves of large wavelengths. Their operation can be witnessed by observing the behavior of a canine suspended over a large vertical drop. Its feet will begin to fall first, causing its legs to stretch. As the wave reaches its torso, that part will begin to fall, causing the neck to stretch. As the head begins to fall, tension is released and the canine will resume its regular proportions until such time as it strikes the ground.

Cartoon Law Amendment E
Dynamite is spontaneously generated in "C-spaces" (spaces in which cartoon laws hold). The process is analogous to steady-state theories of the universe which postulated that the tensions involved in maintaining a space would cause the creation of hydrogen from nothing. Dynamite quanta are quite large (stick sized) and unstable (lit). Such quanta are attracted to psychic forces generated by feelings of distress in "cool" characters (see Amendment B, which may be a special case of this law), who are able to use said quanta to their advantage. One may imagine C-spaces where all matter and energy result from primal masses of dynamite exploding. A big bang indeed.

Kinda cool. To promote the Thriller 25 release avoiding the use of that creepy white/black guy these viral vids have hit the web. Random acts of MJ anyone?

Thank Marques for Comfeze



No help from Jeff on this one. Just some randomness I stumbled across in my world wide webventures.

Sometimes Jeff sends you things, and you can have no more appropriate response but confusion. Take the above as an example.

2 Guys, 1 Clay



Camera + Designer + Photographer - Pants = W The Fuck

Steroids…the least of his worries



So my brother sent me this one the other day. I knew steroids was a somewhat serious accusation in the 80's and throughout today. But our dear friend "The Macho Man" Randy Savage apparently had issues with other drugs. No clue what they were, but son-of-a-bitch if this ain't funny as fuck to me.

Super Bingo



From the people who bought you Powerthirst, comes another conglomerate of random thinking in the form of Super Bingo. My personal favorites include Burngo Bingo and Pegasi. I'm hopped up on Banadryl right now, but am more than sure that this will be equally as funny when I'm sober.
