  1. Hah, nice lawn dart. Ooooke!

    Until I read the tags, I though the rocket might be an intentional statement. "Look out! We’re breaking free from the mold!"

  2. Don’t worry, we all have our price.

    (Mine is $5)

  3. Check out this sleaziness. Just received it:

    From: Patricia Chi
    Subject: Radio Interview with Telstar Logistics

    Hello:

    I am writing on behalf of Sky Radio Network, the nation’s
    leading in-flight media company, in regards to our upcoming
    "America’s Innovators and Entrepreneurs" talk radio show on
    American Airlines.

    This special on-going radio series spotlights compelling
    profiles of innovators and entrepreneurs — from the small
    business owner to the large enterprise CEO — the people that
    make up the backbone of business in America and are rarely
    heard from. This show will feature stories of hope, ideas and
    success stories in ways you’ve never heard before.

    I would like to personally invite you to participate in our radio
    program, which airs worldwide on American Airlines for a full
    month reaching 4.2 million business and leisure travelers. There
    is a small production fee to participate (see participation costs
    and details below).

    […]

    Our production team will produce a dynamic one-on-one
    interview. Our writers will script everything in advance with
    your final editorial control. Your interview will air in a
    continuous loop on 29,000 American Airlines flights during
    the entire month of September 2007.

    Since we’re on deadline, we’re offering our last two spots on
    our September 2007 edition for only $3,995 (normally $6,995).
    Please note we must record your interview by May 30th and
    because of our tight deadline, we need a commitment to secure
    your spot no later than noon PST on Tuesday, May 15th.

  4. Ha!~ Only $4 K!?!?!

    I’d be tempted to go on the show for a prank. Make up a business and spout off fictional business ‘hope, ideas and success stories" in ways they’ve never heard before. If they are willing to sell air time, I’ll bet they ain’t picky about content.

    I’d kick in a hundred bucks towards a good prank.

  5. Thanks for making this photo available via CC license. I just used it to illustrate this post:
