Since … oh, at least 2003.

Goodbye to All That…

Salutations and good day…

I just wanted to drop a note to let you know that this will be my last week at Advertising Age.

After more than three years in New York, my wife and I have decided it’s time to take our recently-arrived son back north to a place many Americans refer to as “that big gray blank space above us on the map,” but what we like to call “Canada.”

Don’t worry, I haven’t crafted some hackneyed, Didionesque rant about my time here, but will say it’s been a hell of a good time working with the classy folks at Creativity and AdAge over the last few years. A particular thanks to Teressa Iezzi for hiring a fellow Toronto ex-pat with no fixed address or experience covering the ad industry, back in 2006.

By the time February starts, I’ll be back in Toronto and a staff writer at Marketing magazine. I’m excited to start work with the crew there and continue talking about the interesting, inspired and insidious ways that business and popular culture cross paths.

So thanks to everyone I’ve worked with and covered so far, please stay in touch and keep me posted on your adventures. I’ll still be wandering the interwebs here, as well as @jeffcbeer, while the sports-related ramblings continue at The Cheap Seats. You can also reach me at theycallmebeer@gmail.com.

And with that, a gentlemanly slap to your raised open hand.

huzzah,
jeff
