Marketing Speak
I love marketing… (you should be able to smell the sarcasm in that statement)
For example, my Verizon Wireless cell phone plan has a feature service “included for free”, called Mobile Web 2.0 Access; that costs $1.99 per Megabyte. However, I could upgrade to “Unlimited Free Mobile Web 2.0”; that only costs $15/month.
So let me get this straight… I can either access the web for free and just pay per access, or, I can pay to access the web for free. How can I lose?
I have another term to describe marketing and sales people when they talk like this… Shit Speak.

About
"The secret to happiness is short-term, stupid self-interest!" ~Bill Watterson, Calvin and Hobbes
Here, I can write about the things that bring me happiness. After all life is full of lots of things, but happiness is what makes it worth living.
I will often write about family, sports, home improvement, games, movies, TV, technology, food & drink, Octoberfest and life in general.
