Wazzup? Catsup.

First off -- 'cause I'm still allowed to by eitquette rule:

Happy '007!

The problem with having a blog:

• keeping it up to date
  
  
• avoiding that it doesn't become yet another slice of groupthink pie
  
  
• if you get invited suddenly to a Blogger's networking event (it just so happens) it's important to have some recent content -- even if it's a total slap up job, like this one here...

BUUUT, as I'm a tech-perfectionist so I know I'll "pretty up" this content-heavy post sooner than later.
Sewwwwwww....

A collection of interesting web-minings over the past month ± (not in chronological order) ...

READER WARNING: It's my blog and I'll rant if I want to. And I tend to... Comments are disabled. There's an email address on the right, if anyone wants to send comments that are normal, eg, opinions about what is posted on this blog.

A "glitch"? In an advertising placement? There's no such thing!

But with marketing, why (the heck) can't a food establishment serve its market? Perhaps I am over simplifying. However, I don't see how this pizza joint is encouraging illegal aliens to enter the US. I thought people went to the US to make US currency, not to spend their own country's.

There's no such thing as bad PR. For instance, when (the heck) was the last time you thought about this vocalist? (I can't recall.)

All for publicity; should we be surprised considering the peeps involved? No.

FAITH & "FILOSOPHY"

Someone out there just wants to point out that the genpop could spend expend their energy in more useful ways. It's good to get involved but where is the line between becoming the part of the problem instead of the solution?

For instance the guy pictured with the sign that spins the bible passage Romans 6:23, which is:

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in[a] Christ Jesus our Lord.

Am I not "finding Waldo" here?! I don't see the acronym for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome ANYWHERE in that passage.

The only thing Joe did wrong -- IMHO -- was say his piece. And, okay, he did what lots adolescents do: rebel.
