"Build your advertising campaign around a BIG IDEA or it will fail."David Ogilvy, certainly one of the five greatest advertising people who ever lived, constantly preached that advice to his staff. I was a creative supervisor for his agency, Ogilvy & Mather, Inc. in New York for eight years, creating print and TV ads for clients that included American Express, IBM, KLM Airlines, United States Travel Services and others. I tried very hard to find the "big idea," not always successfully.

OK, let's establish some ground rules. It's called the City, not Manhattan. And under no circumstance should you ever say New York City. Yes, we know some New Yorkers do take things a bit too far and say they are from the City even when they are visiting relatives in Tulsa - where the nickname really loses its luster.Whatever it is you are trying to do while you're in the City, do it quickly and get out of the way. That applies to ordering at the deli (where do you think the Soup Nazi idea came from?), riding the escalators, crossing the street or buying a paper. Things have a faster pace up here and people like it that way. This City will eat you alive if you don't prepare properly.But even with...

But, take my word, the surroundings are pleasant, the drinks unadulterated, the prices average, the food good and the clientele well dressed without ostentation.I was introduced to jazz while...

In some markets across the country -- San Francisco, New York and Washington, D.C., for example -- the renters' market is so hot that properties are snatched up the same day they become available. In fact, many landlords in these markets find themselves negotiating among multiple offers. In climates like these, propsective tenants often feel pressured to sign on the dotted line. The reality is that if they opt to take home the lease, read it carefully and return to the property the next day, they'll lose the apartment to another tenant. Unfortunately, this pressure to sign and do it quickly means that tenants merely skim the terms of their leases prior to signing them. Contrary to what you believe...
