Buckley's

So when looking up the blog post for this week not to long ago, i just realized it was about watching advertisements over this past week. Well i think that not actually paying attention helped me realize which ads stuck out more. This only thing that i can remember is watching a new commercial about Buckley's Cough Syrup. The commercials are hilarious. What they do is link the bad taste of cough syrup to random other liquids which just by the smell you would think they have to taste bad. Like a blindfolded taste test of Buckley's vs Puddle on Floor of Public Restroom, in which the end result was not being able to taste a difference. They then end with two check marks, one for it tastes like crap, the other for it gets rid of coughs. This is stuck in my head and so are the other commercials cause they pretend to use anything rank or spoiled in the taste tests which everyone will know about. It also makes me want to use it, so ill try it next time i get a bad cough.

Group Communication

For the most part i found that communicating with my group was very effective. We in general used emails for communication and when needed called each other on the phone. Our meetings went over fine ever time. Derek and I being out of town for the first one or two was a little difficult to catch up and be on the same page. The only problem i found was not everyone checks their email at the same time. I know this makes sense but that was probably the only real problem. It is more or less playing tag with emails, but you are still able to leave long enough messages and questions to move forward with the project. Our meetings went over fine and we worked out the schedule every time we had a meeting. I think the separation of work worked out well for the most part. Sometimes it was hard because not everyone had the program required to open some documents so it took longer to try and merge things and re-organize. I hope that in phase two we can work out a little more before hand what we will do and how we will put it all together. Other than that i am very happy with our group and the progress we were able to make.
