Drugs….anyone?

A stew is a dish that is compiled of a bunch of different ingredients. Something that is slowly prepared with lots spices and stirring. This blog represents the stew of digital tidbits that live inside our heads. Its a place to document the things that call our attention as consumers, and something to inspire our students in our class at Miami Ad School. Hope you brought a big spoon.
