bob's revolutionary, portable, billboard ad campaign (old school meets innovation)

well, you can't say i don't listen to my fellow pond chums.
no one has to tell bob something twice.
i've been wrestling with how to take this joint to the next level—sadly, it's all i have.
anyway, i guess i was kind of moaning and groaning when someone, who will remain nameless, recommended i stop whining and advertise already.
bob heard loud and clear.

sooooo...
after locking myself up in my big thinkin' tank, i came up with something very exciting.
a revolutionary, portable billboard that's costs nothin' more than dogfood quite honestly.

all i have to say to someone, who will remain nameless, is that you weren't counting on this brain!

Since you're open to suggestions, could you please put the pink back into "if it's good news, it must be somebody else's." It kinda reminds me of the "pink polo shirt and plaid madras shorts" post.

It's getting closer to that time of year again . . .

Pretty please, for moi?

I hate to presuppose you’re proposing precluding pushing your preposition position? But is that your proposition? I mean is this advertising thing instead of instead of? or in addition to instead of? I’ve got nothing against your newfangled ad campaign Bob. I just hope it isn't instead of instead of, but hey it's your call, and I'm still gonna read your blog instead of? …okay, in addition to the competition no matter what.

I mean my boots are already muddy, and my tent is pitched up yonder from the pond, so I’m staying. I just don’t want to see a bunch of billboards goin’ up around the place. Dogs in T-shirts I guess I can live with, but don’t let this thing spiral out of control. For crud-sake I hike out here to the pond to get away from civilization! Next thing ya know there’ll be a boat rental over there, and a souvenir shop, and then a water slide, and a ...hey, ya know what this place could use? …a beer garden! Yeah! All we need are a bunch of plastic tables, and some chairs, and a big cooler for the kegs, and some signs; some big signs: BEER GARDEN OPEN ...BUDWEISER $2.00 …PITCHERS $6.00 …Hey Bob, we gotta advertise this thing!!

beer/wine garden and spatchcocked chicken booth? not bad. i may have to bring you two into my little advertising think tank. there's tens of cents to be made here if we play our popups right!
