28

Howdy readers. Yesterday, as every year, I spent the day honoring the birthday of our former and possibly future First Daughter, Chelsea Clinton. I've done so ever since she captured the heart of the American people as a lovable, awkward teenager back in 1993. And now, at 28, we see how much she's grown. But why should I go on, when ABC News says it best? Secret weapon, indeed!

It seems only yesterday when she spent her 18th birthday partying away with celebrities in New York, while the rest of us had to go to school. Now, as a successful, responsible adult, she spends the day campaigning for her mom, while the rest of us slogged through a day at the office before whiling away the evening at bar trivia. Amazing how much can change in 10 years.

I bet you're all wondering what this has to do with advertising. Maybe nothing. But perhaps it's important to remember that in spite of advertising's relentless efforts to turn us into stable, reliable consumers, we continue to grow and develop nonetheless.

My loyal readers should know that Drink Moxie will be on hiatus next week. In the meantime, you could check out this other site that I like:
