Our local paper, the Daily Breeze, has decided to make some gelt by offering 3 in. x 3 in. sticker ads which are placed on the paper's masthead every morning. They are usually for such mundane, but necessary firms such as plumbing, contracting, etc. I'd never seen a book ad, so why not?
This is the copy that will run on Wednesday, April 25th which is also my birthday so this is my present to myself. $1,400 worth of present. But: the buy order is for 25,000 subscribers in the beach area plus Torrance. This is not as bad as it looks - it is $0.05 per person. Math is by no means my strong suit. In fact, as a "suit" that would be a Brazilian bikini. Scanty.
Be that as it may.
"The axe forgets, but the tree remembers" is a saying I ran across and (obviously) adored. It is an African saying along with "Be not so proud, rooster - you were once only an egg."
Here endeth today's philosophy lesson.
SPEND A LITTLE - BUY MY BOOK! IT'S ONLY $12, SURELY YOU CAN AFFORD IT - I ATE THE $1,400!
