Except newspaper ads. I used to supervise ad production for Radio Shack and Computer City back in the day when we used mechanicals with poster board and slicks and wax rather than via computer - YUCK!), but I don't have the proper tools to do really spiffy ads, so I'm about ad-ed out after these appear. I like the writing-related stuff better.
