Even though it's not Friday ...

I got an email from a nice man called Randy in Perrigo's PR firm (remember Perrigo? They're the guys with the dancing scientists):

Anyhoo, apparently they're still at it at Perrigo. I usually bin these emails after the first generic, badly-written paragraph ["Dear space space Rowan. I have readed your blog and think ..."], but Randy's writing style held my eye and I was glad I clicked through:

Not your typical corporate video. I do hope that Perrigo's CEO is in there somewhere (maybe doing the card trick?) Also, they need a new strapline as the usual corporate-speak at the end detracted from the whole effort. Other than that – happy not Friday. Serious harumphing will resume as soon as possible.

Perrigo Co. CEO Joseph Papa does not appear to be in that video, unless he is Darth Vader.

Oddly though, Eddie Izzard plays one of the scientists.

Rowan,

I'm just checking out your site for the first time. Talk about serendipity-- Perrigo Co. is just 40 miles away from where I live in Michigan. It's based in a small rural community. Not bad for the Midwest section of the U.S. Thanks for giving it some press time.
