When I think of famous Chicago foods, I think of deep-dish pizzas, hot dogs and Italian beef. Will these foods, and other random eats, taste better or worse when smothered with Qdoba Mexican Grill's 3-cheese Queso? The only way to find out is to travel the city in a food truck stocked with nothing but Qdoba's 3-cheese Queso and driven by Joey Dundale, an up-and-coming Chicago comedian with a legitimate love of Queso.

Three weeks ago, I wrote about a trio of BBH Barn interns who created Sartalics, the font to use when being sarcastic in email, tweets and texts. Emoticons are for the emotionally challenged; this eliminates those pesky misunderstandings in cyberspace. Now, you'll recognize a dis and deal with it. At the same time, another intern troika, also asked to "change perception famously," came up "The Social Tattoo Project."

I have a thing for NYC food trucks. I use Twitter to track when trucks are parked near the office to decide where I'll grab lunch. En route to Schnitzel & Things, my co-worker and I came across a pop-up butterfly sanctuary. I've seen plenty of pop-up stores, but this pop-up butterfly sanctuary was a first. Couple that with a street team handing out yogurt -- and you have an interesting brand campaign launch.
