Jimm Lasser, Esq. (1974- )
On the stormy morning of Sunday, December 9, 1974, Nancy Lasser, wife of Alan, gave birth to a boy. He was born on a bed of poles covered with corn husks. The baby was named Jimm, after Comedian Red Foxx. The birth took place in the Lasser's rough-hewn cabin in Winnetka near Chicago, Illinois. Alan Lasser was a dermatologist and a farmer. Nancy Lasser had little or no accounting schooling and could not write french poetry. Jimm spent a short amount of time in a log schoolhouse, before graduating from the University of Michigan, Vanderbilt University School of Law, and the Portfolio Center. Jimm attended school dressed in a raccoon cap, buckskin clothes, and pants so short that several inches of his calves were exposed. Jimm earned his first dollar ferrying passengers to a steamer on Lake Michigan, and designing T-shirts for the 84-year old James Toast at sharpastoast.com. He was wounded by bottle rocket at the Battle of Crow Island Woods, spoke out against the Dred Scott Decision, and is the member of a secret society. Currently he is a good art director and bad copywriter at Wieden + Kennedy, Portland, Ore.
Notes.
- Pee Wee Herman did indeed sign my copy of the 9-11 Report.
- I still have a few T-shirts left. Posters and prints too. Make me an offer.
- When Greg Oden learned I went to the University of Michigan, he asked me to leave.
- The ape costume was actually an Ape Lincoln costume.
- I have yet to send the President his shoes.
- Al Kader is an unfortunately named Shriners chapter in Portland, Ore.
- The Abe Force One shoe was carved by hand and I recommend not trying it.
- The mouse pad has been my mouse pad for four years.
- The Fail Harder has 10,000 push pins. It was a group effort with W+K 12.
