 Black Friday – the most wonderful time of the year. The time for ad agencies to come out swinging. For brands to peddle their wares in the homes and on the screens of delirious-for-the-deal, bargain-brained buyers everywhere…

San Francisco – The Golden City, The City by the Bay, the home of cable cars, Alcatraz, sourdough bread, and the world’s only fog with a twitter account (@KarlTheFog, if you don’t follow already).
