Nobody Saw It Coming

Half a million dollars for a toilet seat. Paying farmers not to grow food and spending miullions more to warehouse cheese and other dairy products until they go bad and then spend millions to dispose of it.

C'mon people, nothing we as a nation does has really made much sense since we dumped all of that tea in the Boston harbor. Oh and by the way, taxes weren't 1/5th as burdensome as it now is.

So what makes sense? People who never would have come close to qualifying to buy a house had the gree… Continue

400 Hours to find an Available site name

I have now spent more time this year trying to find some clever, unique name for a new website than I have eating, sleeping or on personal hygiene. Okay, maybe not more time than eating.

So I found myself typing what I thought might be unusual combinations of characters to come up with something cool, albeit non-descriptive for a new site I am going to launch (perhaps posthumously). It seemed as though trying to combine any 2 words from the dictionary to make a new word and then use that as the… Continue

Directing an Author Reading His Audio Book

I have in my day both voiced and directed audio books. As a director I have usually worked with trained talent. That is to say, individuals who have some degre of experience perfroming voiceover and/or have had some acting training.

There seems to be a trend these days to have the authors read the books themselves whenever possible. So a few weeks ago I was introduced to Mr. Bill Tancer and his book called Click. Bill Tancer is the general manager of global research at Hitwise and a weekly colu… Continue

It's Not Easy Being Green

Well, I think Kermit the Frog was the first to sing the sentiments of it not being easy being green. For now and some time to come I am afraid that all the other colors of the rainbow will simply have to take a backstage. Mauve and Fuschia will have no place in our society. It's green, green, green.

One of the big reasons is because it's "safe". Just as all of our country's politicians realized that once they couldn't take money from Tobacco lobbyists anymore for 30 years 90% of all legislation… Continue

WOW - I haven't blogged since Christmas. It's almost like I've been in a coma.

SO, it's now mid-April. Actually iut's April 15th and for once I filed my taxes early which means I can act really smug when I watch all the people on t.v. tonight on th 11 O'clock news waiting in line to send their returns. What I really want to do is go to the post office at around 5 or 10 minutes after midnight just to see who shows up and point at them and laugh.

I usually sit down and blog with something in mind, but right now if I shined a flashlight into my right ear, the light would com… Continue

J.S. glad to connect with you here. Keep me in mind if you have any content you want to put on Hot Pluto--I am more interested in building up the advertiser portion of the site rather than making money right now so i'll upgrade your account at no cost.

Hey pal, I just got paid $784,642.86 in cash from Coke! I was an owner of Coke. Coke belonged to me because I love Coke. But I decided to sell Coke back to Coke. Do you love Coke? Then Coke belongs to you too. You own it. So get paid already! Sell Coke back to Coke like I did. What are you waiting for? Would you rather have a Coke, or $784,642.86 in cash? (Watch this Carlos video for all the details. Tell all your Coke lovin friends. GET PAID. NOW!) http://www.adgabber.com/video/brand-ownership

J.S., the next time you feel a little useless, offended or depressed; always remember that you were once the fastest and most victorious little sperm out of millions. Ok? Okay.

Now the technology that the government has been using to track people they want to watch is now available to the common folk. Try it out. Subject: Google Earth search... Want to find out where your partner or employee is? Google Earth just got better. After clicking on the link below, type in the person's cell phone number. Google Earth (via GPS Tracking) directs you to that person's exact location. Give it a try and tell me what you found. Click on Link: http://www.track-your-partner.com
