So her manager decided it was time to adviced her: "Hey, *. Your picture hasn't appeared in the yellow press for a while now. It's time for you to show up ** in public." --------------------- * replace with any name of your choice ** replace with any appropriate phrase, like "naked", "drunk", "stoned", or the like --------------------- Last night a somewhat strange thought came into my mind, when I realized that I've never heard about a guy named John Dunleavy before reading your post Brent. So, I'd probably never would have come accross his web site, his company, or what ever, without reading this. And now? I bet there's a bunch of people like me, who "met" John only because of the existance of this blog post. Well, may be he deserves, may be not. It's like with the celebity mentioned at the beginning: Bad publicity is better than no publicity at all, isn't it? Good for you John. You owe Brent:) Not only for guiding you in the right direction but also for making you (alomost) famous, or at least for your rise to prominence. Would you mind telling us the stats of your web site hits during the last two weeks compared to the month before? Ok, that wasn't meant serious, although I confess that I would like to know... John, its great that you finally apologized for everything you did, hopefully also wiped out all borrowed content from your web site, and start to mention your sources from now on.
