I just finished a new flash banner for Joe Cipriano’s client site and am reminded of what fun it is to be associated with a guy who is in such good company. I have been doing all of Joe’s Internet marketing for over 10 years and the relationship goes a little beyond client-vendor. I take a lot of pride in having Joe voice my podcast open and close – it’s the same voice that introduces America’s Got Talent and well – listen to a “Web Strategies Podcast” episode when you get a chance and you’ll know what I mean.

Here are Joe’s instructions for the new animation and below is the work I just launched earlier this evening.

Signature Voice of:

Fox, CBS, Hallmark Movie Channel, The Simpsons, Two and a Half Men, Rules of Engagement (CBS), Mike and Molly (CBS), Who Wants to be a Millionaire, Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader, America’s Got Talent.

Radio Imaging: Boom 973 Toronto, Star 941 San Diego, The Fish stations (portland, cleveland, honolulu), Country 105 Calgary, KLLY Bakersfield, ED FM Albuquerque, 102.3 The Wave Vancouver Island, Mix 106 Owen Sound, Magic 93 Charlottetown.

Live Shows: Emmy Awards, Grammy Awards, PGA Awards

So if you read the last entry I owe you a follow up. I did go back to the office last night. The alarm did go off again. I did put the correct code in. It did not work.

When I called my boss at home for the second time on the same day I needed to write down the temporary pass code. While reaching for the ball point pen sitting on my nice new oak (well oak-ish) credenza in my darkened office, a thin blue stream of ink left a gooey filament all the way from the credenza to my new desk to the new leather bound executive pad there. But the Coup de grâce was the moment I walked into the now lit and populated office this morning. Our Office Manager gave me a wink and asked which number I used on the alarm pad. I told her. She tried it. It worked.

Damn.
