Happy Friday from a very snowy south Jersey, where I am one happy camper. Other grouchy people may not like winter, but I love the snow, which we’ve seen very little of this year (minus our big blizzard, of course), so I’m quite pleased to see some of the fluffy stuff again before I’m sure it will warm up and melt once more. And I say that despite being solely responsible for the shoveling around here.
This weekend is, of course, also about the Superbowl, or for those of us without a team in the fight, the Superbowl commercials. You know what that means – next week starts my annual recap of the good, the bad and the ugly of this year’s crop of commercials, and just as with every other year, I haven’t cheated and watched any sneak peeks. So I can’t wait for the new ad debuts! (I know, I’m a terribly nerdy legal marketer, and I heartily embrace that)
So Monday, watch this space for the best of this year’s crop, if there are any! And as for today, here is this week’s roundup from around our Network on ILNToday – we’re going with a top 10 this week, and you’ll want to pay particular attention to EBG’s update on the Zika virus, and McDonald Hopkins discussion of the results from their latest Business Outlook survey:
