Ricky Van Veen's GET EXCITED

March 23, 2010

Had lunch today with a guy who, as it turns out, did this Errol Morris ad campaign for Miller High Life — one of my favorite ad campaigns of all time.

All of the spots are here.

Subject: [CAA-Alumni] Strange (But Serious) ISO: A Stand-In Boyfriend
To: CAA-Alumni@[redacted].com

Hello all,

A strange, but serious ISO. I work with an attorney who is in his early 60’s. He has a girlfriend who is in her early 20’s. I know, I know, but hey - we live in LA - it happens. 

The issue: The girlfriend’s parents don’t know about the older bf and they have been bugging her about her lack of a bf.
 
So, here’s what I need: a really good-looking and respectable-looking white guy in his mid-to-late 20’s who will be her stand-in boyfriend. No need to meet the parents in person. Just need the guy for about one day to go around to various locales around LA and take photos with the gf in various outfits, so that she can forward the photos to her parents and shut them up.

The individual will be paid for his time, but…as funny of a situation as this is…he must be dependable and he must be discreet. Really.

If you guys know of anyone whom you think might fit the bill, please have them e-mail me directly with their name, contact info and a recent photo

Thanks,

[redacted]

Don’t usually plug stuff like this, but they asked me to mention it, so:

I’ll be interviewed next Wed at “Employee of the Month” at the Tribeca Y. 8pm.

Just finished third and final day of the Blueprint Cleanse.

Heard a lot about it and wanted to see what it was like. Biggest takeaway was the realization of how little food you actually need to eat to get by.

After the incredible experiences I have had healing my life and truly connecting to my dreams with healer intuitive Aiden Chase, I have officially asked him to become my manager,” Montag says. “Having an intuitive psychic leading my team gives me an edge no one else has.”

SXSW

Are you going? If so, from when to when (I’m talking about the tech portion, of course. The music portion is obviously for losers)?
