Oprah and Obama

Barack Obama is the first candidate Oprah Winfrey has endorsed since being on-air 21 years ago. Maybe it is all about the “O” as Overstock claims. Or maybe Oprah is curious about the scope of her influence on the public. But can her endorsement elect someone into presidency?

Oprah is one of the most-powerful women, if not person, in the entire world. Any merchant, vendor, author, or entrepreneur can tell you their product sales skyrocketed after appearing on the show. But Oprah has made some mistakes. Remember “A Million Little Pieces”? Oprah supported the author’s self-proclaimed autobiographical novel and the book sales escalated to Best Seller’s lists across the country. After the public learned the novel was fiction, Oprah was criticized immensely. Still there is no question about Oprah’s clout and effect she has on the masses, especially women.

Many women love and trust her voice. Oprah’s book club alone has millions of readers who religiously buy and read every book she introduces. Oprah’s charity, Angels Network, has raised more than 50 million since established in 1997. Oprah’s national magazine “O” started in 2000 with 500,000 copies. Currently, there are now over 2.6 million subscribers. Nevertheless, Oprah does not have the same power on men. Several men have come out and said unkind words about the media mogul. Most have a problem with her tact as being brainwashing and “cult-like”.

Fan or not, one has to believe Oprah’s endorsement of Obama will have an impact on voters. Time will tell if Oprah’s endorsement will help Obama get elected into the White House.

All I asked was, where are my Apple Cup pictures??

Re: Apple Cup Pics

Dear xxxAnonymousxxx –

Said pictures will be downloaded and certainly will be shared amongst the parties in question.  The obstacle currently remains that my battery’s juices have are at this moment depleted to the point where a download is impossible and turning it on is harder than a fat kid trying to jump over track hurdles (trust me, it’s pretty freaking hard).  One might say, re-charge your battery give him/her or shim some life, well that would be the obvious choice except for the fact that my battery charger has seemingly grown legs and walked off, presumably with a younger and fitter looking guy…it’s my fault really, I’ve put on a few of the ole’ lb’s…took her for granted I suppose.  I am still searching for her and do hope to find her…maybe in Cheyenne, WY on the beaches somewhere…

If my search doesn’t turn out to be a success I may purchase a new one this weekend (can you purchase new battery chargers).  Truthfully she won’t be the same, but it’s much like a mail-order-bride…sure it’s not the same as say an actual wife or even a wife found through a street search…but still a bride nonetheless I suppose…

My apologies if the sphenisciphobia set in…please try and look past, let the fear subside…because you’re good enough, you’re smart enough and gosh darn it, people like you (and even I do too)…

In a humble heap of sunshine…

Signed,

AdWeek's Freaky Ad Moments of 2007...Vote or Die!

Adweek has been compiling the ads they deem "freakiest" in 2007.  I have to agree with a lot of the ads they chose.  Makes me want to peek into the mind of a copywriter.

MTV's "Maturity is overrated" in which a ball of pubic hair chats with a pair of boobs in the school hall.

Check out all of their other MTV ads here at hornet.com

Also, my favorite, the Starburst Dancing Lad ad by TWBA/Chiat/Day in NY. Because he is a little lad who loves berries and cream!

Help A Friend In Need

Take your family member or friend down a notch when they start to feel good about themselves.  Nip/Tuck wants you to do so.  Have one of the Doctors, Troy or MacNamara give your friend a personalized consultation over the phone.  The traumatizing "personalized message" phone gimmick is to advertise their latest season.

And We Thought McDonalds Was Bad...

I am going to get strait to the point here.  I thought eating fast food was putting crap into your body.  I was wrong.  There are worse things to eat. 

Yeah, that is a duck fetus.  People spend their money on duck fetus... and enjoy it. I think that forcing this down the throats of those in Guantanamo is way more effective that water-boarding.  The crunch of the duck beak would cause them to break into tears then spill any terrorist threats.
