  The Rock

  on If Your Product Placement Is Obvious And Awkward, You're Doing It Wrong
  "30 Rock" does blatant product placement, and they do it very well. Of course they make a joke out of it (selling out), but it's a comedy show so that works for them.

  on People Who Exaggerate Themselves On Online Dating Sites Do So Just As Much In Real Life As Well
  I don't know why people would lie about themselves online. Maybee they're not as awesome as me. Oops, pardon that typo please. I was a bit busy staring at my pecs and chiseled abs in the mirror while I was typing that.

  on How UK Chiropractors' Attempt To Silence One Critic Created The Backlash That May Change Chiropractics In The UK
  I agree with you. I probably didn't make my statement as clear as I could have. What chiros do is very worthwhile and helps a lot of people. I'm just curious as to why they would confuse the issue with all the other wild claims a lot of them appear to be making.
  No, aligning my back will not give my hair more bounce and shine than the leading salon brands! :P

  My father is a golf pro, and as such is susceptible to back injuries from torsion and just lugging an awkward 40 pound bag for hours on end. He has gotten good results with his chiropractor that he has been unable to find anywhere else. Don't know why they need to exaggerate what they can actually accomplish. Sounds like they have Billy Mays running their marketing.

  I've never even heard of that! But to be honest, I did base my song off of my father's 1965 minor hit song "Slacks on the Tile".

  Is it too late to point out my controversial, and nonexistent, hit song from 1978 entitled "Britches On The Terrain"? I knew I should have copyrighted that!

  You might as well argue that P. Hilton is famous for being an actress and singer. She only got the radio show, the "web presence" and the Twitter followers for being famous for being famous.

  on 50 Cent: Piracy Is A Part Of The Marketing
  I download music, and it directly led me to going to a Tom Waits concert earlier this year, and a Leonard Cohen concert later this year. Thanks for your input though. It's always good to have divergent viewpoints voiced.

  I love the 80's (and the 90's, to a lesser extent)

  on Once Again, Music Licensing Harms The DVD Release Of A Classic TV Show: The State Goes Generic
  This past weekend I just watched Manhunter, Michael Mann's excellent Miami Vice-y version of from 1986. One visual that will forever be stuck in my mind is the scene in the grocery store where the main character is telling his pre-teen son about how Hannibal Lecktor (how it's spelled in the film) nearly killed him and drove him insane. It appears to have been shot in an actual grocery store, with shelves filled with clearly-visible Cap'n Crunch and Folgers... and Mr. T Cereal!! Imagine sharing that story with your little kid on the sugary cereal aisle.
  
  Anyway, you don't get scenes like that these days. Just thought I'd share. Slow day at the office. :)

  I'm in total agreement with you and pegr up there. Mike is a bit off on this one. That doesn't "bear a passing resemblance to Godzilla", that IS that MFer!! Next up for Comcast advertising: The Beetuls, starring Jon, Pau, Jorge, and Rengo.

  on Explaining Why 'If We Charge, People Will Pay' Thinking Is Misguided
  You can go out and buy a $4000 carbon fiber-frame bike but your riding will certainly still be distinguishable from a professional rider's. And you can go on any golf course and see two dozen guys playing with the same gear Tiger uses, but it doesn't help them break 100. On the same note, I've seen a lot of amateur photogs' work, mine own included, and it's extremely rare to see any that rises to the quality of a top professional. Then again, there are a lot of pure hacks out there making a good living off of their camera...
