infomercials are the best of the best of the best in terms of persuasive copy.

they are really fkng good.

some of the guys running sharp infomercials are virtually mega multi millionaires for putting together one single good script.

all of this from an avertising point of view.

jesus i am typing this on a tiny keyboard of an eee pc in the crapper. really difficult to type while sitting on the loo with the battery burning your thighs.

all power to wireless internet. yay.


that was my feces reference for this page.

had lunch with the king of us infomercials back in march... really interesting man who has successfully built an empire.

for some reason though, i find there is a stigma attached with infomercial prodcuts, but people are getting over that if the product works.

which info guy was that?

I read a bit about copywriting from guys like Dan Kennedy, John Carlton, Gary Halbert and the likes.

Did you have lunch with any of these geniuses?

The infomercials are derived from print long copy sales letters and work just as well.

Some of the headlines these guys are able to pull off are pure genius...

i'm sorry, GC. i just got excited about hump day!

freakish storm blew in last night... turned off the computer and went to sleep, which was probably a wise thing to do as i forget how potent certain drinks are in the states. two long islands and bam! out for the count.


HC... his name is billy mays.

the foot pad things. they seem to be working. i have no idea if i actually have less toxins this morning. surprisingly, they were rather comfy!

waiting for an tree doctor to arrive and evaluate some trees. life is thrilling...

ever have such a disasterous area that you look around and no idea of where to begin? that is the other part of today's project...

lucar should be back to shanghai on thursday, his flight departs in 15 minutes.

the beastie is really becoming impossible. she insists on waking me up every morning for absolutely no reason. not once, but until i am physically out of bed. what is her deal?

suppose it's time to stop procrastinating and figure out how to make rhyme or reason out of this mess.

maybe it's time for the peanut butter in the vagina trick?

i heard it works.

ah.

a grossing out opportunity.

like anal sex, it's the kind of opportunity that you don't want to miss.

Hurricane Dolly is hitting my city at 7pm tonight and the night's going to progressively get worse and worse.

Do cats like peanut butter?

Hurricane Dolly sounds kind of wank for a such a potentially destructive force.

Quote:
A GREEK court has dismissed a request by residents of the Aegean island of Lesbos to ban the use of the word lesbian to describe gay women.

Three residents of Lesbos, the birthplace of the ancient Greek poetess Sappho whose love poems inspired the term lesbian, brought a case last month, arguing the use of the term in reference to gay women insulted their identity.

But the Athens court said the word did not define the identity of the residents of the island, and so it could be validly used by gay groups in Greece and abroad.

The ruling ordered the plaintiffs to pay court expenses of 230 euros.

“This is a good decision for lesbians everywhere,” Vassilis Chirdaris, lawyer for the Gay and Lesbian Union of Greece, said.

“A court in Athens could not stop people around the world from using it. It was ridiculous.”
