Feh Tarty, who was up for our Hottest Man In Advertising Award, is now blogging from the Andy's where he is judging for the 2008 competition. Ain't so easy, is it Tarty? The talented Goodby CD is keeping track of the free booze ("In the evening Yahoo sponsored cocktails for all the judges and the Advertising Club members at The Summit Restaurant in Australia Square."), the butt loads of work ("Lunch was really fun, but the last thing I expected was to be handed an assignment after I sat down.") and the fights ("David Droga and Susan Credle almost got into a fisticuffs about the youthful embrace of the Sydney business market and their success rate.")

Tarty seems to be having a good time over all and is full of pertinent and riveting information like:

"Not only are judges not allowed to vote on work from their respective offices, they are also not allowed to vote any work from their network. That didn't work out too well for Susan Credle because that meant she could barely vote on anything. Andrew Keller found a loophole by voting on his own work he had nothing to do with."

Oh! And more drinks -

"After that work out, David Nobay took us to his old watering hole across from Saatchi & Saatchi Sydney until our night's big event."

Seriously, raise your hand if you are half way to being an alcoholic from working in the biz. We should all get together and file a class action suit against the 4A's. In the meantime, we'll be keeping an eye on cutie boy Tarty and the shenanigans taking place in Sydney.
