Either: 1) Call them up and tell them they could save $385 million by using the brilliant Goats On Unicycles marketing plan, or, 2) Go learn something and call us back when you have a clue. -- tholub ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tholub's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/804 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/75376 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

Izze counts neither as a major beverage company, nor as a company which doesn't do sponsorships. In fact, they even did a commercial with 'Pink Man' (http://www.unicyclist.org/cont/play....420315PinkMan). -- tholub ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tholub's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/804 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/75376 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

They can spend 100% for all I care. That don't prove squat. Sir... Do you find it so necassary to be rude to a sweet little boy? Was I being so rude towards you? Remember, I am yet in my formative years and I'm rather impressionable. If you fill my mind with your acidic remarks, I'll grow irracible and resentful, taking it out on my wife and children, escaping in a bottle. I'll start selling ciggarettes and booze to minors just for the kick of being a menace to society. But seriously, why be so rude? Show me where I was rude, I'll stop. I won't be offended. I want to be a nice person and that always takes a lot of help. Don't be a jerk. My utter sympathy goes out to your children. Also, just cause I'm young, it dons't mean I don't know my ****. I study social trends, the culture of consumerism and sociology as well as keeping tuned into programs such as Market Place and The Nightly Business Report. Please, don't develop the condition that so many people your age have, of thinking, because of your age, you know it all. I'm not claiming to no ANYTHING. I was voicing a harmless opinion and you shot me down. But I don't mean to be so biting. so here's some happy faces and some hearts! 3 3 3 -- Goats_On_Unicycles -So hot!

They spent $385 million? Hopefully Dan got at least $1 mil, because thats the only thing I remember about them from last year. I think the advertising with big companies works more subliminally than it does consciously. Though, I don't really see why companies such as coke really need to advertise anything. Is anyone in the western world not at least vaguely familiar with them? As Jackie said, just because they spent a lot of money certainly doesn't mean they know best. If they really knew what they were doing I'm sure they could get by without wasting so much money. They are marketing towards the average person, not rich CEOs. Wouldn't we have a slightly better idea if its working on us than they do? Maybe Tholub works for Columbia and that's why hes getting worked up. He sure seems to know so much about it. ---------- Spencer, if you get on the air be sure to give a T-Spen shout out! -- Brian O. *'ProjectUNI' (http://www.projectuni.com) - *3D Unicycle Computer Game** - Follow the 'progress.'
