The news today in AdWeek (accompanied by a radiant picture of "Laurence of the Capuchins") Tells how Draft/FCB will be laying off 50 people this week... Sorry, AdWeek. The actual number will be 130 and the doomed will learn of their fate on Thursday. Amongst those made to walk the plank will be several long term employees of FCB, with many years of service under their belt. But fuck it, someone has to pay for Laurence's in-office gym and Howard's Aston Martin repair bills. So, all you old geezers... "You're fucked!" Interesting rumbles on the possible fate of Uber-Creative-Fuehrer, Chris Becker... Is he staying... Is he biting the pillow for a few more months 'til he sets up his next mega-gig... Will he swear undying fealty to "Hughie, Duey & Louie?" Don't know at the moment, but never fear, I'll find out, then AdScam readers will be the first to know.

The good ship Draft/FCB sets sail for new adventures!
