March Meeting: Wieden + Kennedy Art Director Jimm Lasser
MAR 3 — What a guy! Jimm has made good on his promise to reschedule and will be speaking at our March meeting. Who is Jimm Lasser? Glad you asked:
Jimm Lasser, Esq. (1974 — )
On the stormy morning of Sunday, December 9, 1974, Nancy Lasser, wife of Alan, gave birth to a boy. He was born on a bed of poles covered with corn husks. The baby was named Jimm, after Comedian Red Foxx. The birth took place in the Lasser's rough-hewn cabin in Winnetka near Chicago, Illinois. Alan Lasser was a dermatologist and a farmer. Nancy Lasser had little or no accounting schooling and could not write french poetry. Jimm spent a short amount of time in a log schoolhouse, before graduating from the University of Michigan, Vanderbilt University School of Law, and the Portfolio Center. Jimm attended school dressed in a raccoon cap, buckskin clothes, and pants so short that several inches of his calves were exposed. Jimm earned his first dollar ferrying passengers to a steamer on Lake Michigan, and designing T-shirts for the 84-year old James Toast at sharpastoast.com. He was wounded by bottle rocket at the Battle of Crow Island Woods, spoke out against the Dred Scott Decision, and is the member of a secret society. Currently he is a good art director and bad copywriter at Wieden + Kennedy, Portland, Ore.
We'll see you all there. And don't forget, we have moved to the Magnolia Theater at West Village. The Reception is upstairs at the bar followed by the meeting in Theater 1.

For example then the child has put all of the discs in the box with discs, she has successfully complete a cycle of activity, feels a great deal of satisfaction, and is often ready to repeat the activity. But you want to avoid every parent’s dread – the “toy safety recall”. The pre-cut artwork panels can also be colored and folded in such a way to make archways and buildings.

There are several other that are being sold that may also be more high-end the traditional toys for children. Comfy hoodie sweatshirts, from a quality label should always be in a comfortable set of basic necessities for a girl. apart from this you would feel relieved to have bought your children to play with all the time and they annoy you less.
