Thank you to P at What Possessed Me for finding and sharing it! I completely missed it last year so am delighted that she posted it or I might never have enjoyed it and that would have been a shame.
Thank you for that poste, Awesome! AND thank you for your comment on the nose.. yes, that was a real ad- I have an old magazine chock full of them! Found it in a basement of a house for sale. Scarey here in the the U.S. these days, fundamentalists lobotomized by religion, big corporation control. I could go on...Very scarey. Palin is indicative of how far down the tubes this country has gone.
linda sue - incredible that contraptions like that nose adjuster were though necessary, let alone made and sold! I agree about Palin - talk about scraping the barrel in all ways! And (on top of all the other things that are appalling about her) it's embarrassing that she's being held up as representative of women... If I lived in the US, I would NOT want people to think she represented me as a woman - in ANY way! Horrible thought. m.c.i.s - glad you enjoyed it :o)
Saw this post when I popped across for a visit and to give you this link - http://www.24.com/entertainment/default.aspx?p=feature&i=1032958 - to check out (I think it's quite good). Will go and check out "What Possessed Me" now.
Brilliant ad! Marketing generally doesn't sit well with me because most of what's being sold is crap. But, it's great when there is something good being sold and a great marketer gets hold of it. There is some inspired thinking out there!
mrs.french - Oh yes, it would be great if people actually bought into this! bruceg - thanks for the link, will definitely check it out. And I agree, wonderful to see such marketing creativity turned on a good cause/product - for a change! Instead of that boring infommercial approach that's so often adopted. This would surely sell the ideas more convincingly?! stephanie - I'm a little in love with the Wind - so cute!
The main things which seem to me important on their own account, and not merely as means to other things, are knowledge, art, instinctive happiness, and relations of friendship or affection.
Bertrand Russell
The aim of life is to live, and to live means to be aware, joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware.
