Some of the ads seemed almost progressive, encouraging the era's burgeoning black middle class to "Come Up to the Kool Taste... them that smoking a Kool was "Like riding a Rolls Royce." (My note: I remember these ads clear up into the early 1990s.) To make further inroads, the tobacco companies loudly supported the Civil ...

I'm confused by all the ads on tv for Bing. They make fun of other search engines for bringing up lots of superfluous results, and suggest that a good search engine will be able to read you mind and find only the search results that happen to match with what you were thinking but didn't say.

Michael Jackson's death actually broke Livejournal for a few minutes (or, well, ohnotheydidnt broke lj). It is a pretty big bummer.

...NEVER HAS ANYTHING IN STOCK ! IF YOU HAVE ITEMS IN THE SUNDAY AD, YOU SHOULD HAVE ENOUGH ITEMS FOR PEOPLE TO BUY." She called on a Friday. A lot of items that are popular in the Sunday ads are gone by then. :/ D. This happened about seven hours ago. While I was folding a table of shirts, I received a customer complaint about a horrible smell coming from the fitting rooms. I stopped what I ...

Друзья, Есть идея привезти в Киев чудесного музыканта Ортала Пеллега (Ortall Pelleg). Не корысти ради, а исключительно ради эстетического наслаждения. Ортал родом из Израиля, но музыка в его душе не имеет ни границ, ни национальности, ни вероисповедания. Начав играть в 15 лет на австралийском диджириду, музыкант путешествует по миру, выступает с концертами в Европе, Индии, Израиле, Америке, и ...
