This was for a full page in BusinessWeek, last week, on the credit freeze. The writer used the term ice age much to my delight.

Here are the initial roughs I sent (the were alot more but not to bore ya)
I was glad the AD Steven Taylor got right away that I was spoofing the bull statue near Wall St. despite the barely legible rough.

Now I needed some reference, hmmm I wonder where I found that Stanford cover (thanks TIm!)
and of course I had to go in and watch Ice Age with the kids ( just kidding I don't have that much time) I just looked at some picts of Manny the Mammoth, designed by Peter de Seve as most of you know.
