Your Whole Life is a Sponsored Moment™
I was sitting at the Jetpacks Mobile WorkStation™ when I noticed a bunch of logos staring back at me. And so, this blog post was brought to you by Yahoo!® , Corona® , Dell® , Logitech® peripherals, the Dish Network® , Verizon® Wireless Broadband and Kensington® peripherals. (And Blogger® , by Google® .)
And none of them have paid me yet.
I guess I use them because they're good, or maybe I perceived them as quality goods and services at affordable prices when I engaged them in business, but how do I know that's true if I don't try the others? Like a fickle client leaving a decent, performing agency for another, I'm willing to ditch these brands who haven't been giving me cold, hard cash (or kickbacks & free stuff) in return for my patronage.
So, if another computer manufacturer would like to furnish a better laptop than this rode hard, put-away-wet dinosaur, get in touch. I might even be persuaded to crossover to the Mac® side.
If Comcast®, BrightHouse® or another competitor of the Dish Network® wants in here, we're open.
Kensington® and Logitech® competitors?
Cingular® on the wireless? (Oh, wait. I mean AT&T® .) And I'll go ahead and invite Sprint® to participate in the RFP.
MSN® ? Google® ? You want a piece?
Oh, wait. Google® provides the blog, the email, the cool maps, the relatively reliable search results, the awesome view of my house from outer space and all kinds of other goodies - for FREE. (All with a simple, clean interface. Verdict: Exempted this month) So, MSN® , you get first shot at the beer cozy sponsorship.
Corona® ...I guess you can stick around a while longer. One month exemption.
(Oh, yeah. Nikon® took the picture. You have 30 days from today, otherwise Canon® gets a shot.)

I was thinking the other day how there's NOTHING free on the planet. EVERYTHING comes with a price tag whether it's money or time or energy or something.
It sucks.

Nice. Cuz you know that Yahoo! beer cozy makes it look like you’re fucking working–except for the Corona part.
