Rutt, I sent you $5 via paypal.

I have spent some time with our advertising agency and I'll take any of these three choices:

1) LAB: Actually, it's pretty useless

2) LAB: I'm only kidding, folks!

3) LAB: Fooled ya!

    Dang it, Andy. You beat me to it. I was going to buy "LAB, it's what's for dinner!", but then I figured 4labs would get ticked off...and I'd have to explain what LAB is, and then.....well, I just lost interest....

    It's simple, Gus. Under Rutt's name is his avatar ad, like where your says Mod of the Wasteland. Andy bought it. It's his. He owns it. Kinda like owning Rutt, really.

    Mine's for sale too.
    If Ginger hasn't spent all her money yet on all that lens lust glass stuff, I will gladly sell my avatar for $100 to her. That'll pay for the hiking shoes I bought yesterday for the shootout.

    Gus, thanks for the great offer, but Andy hasn't offered me anything just yet, and Ginger has rights of first refusal, and I haven't heard from her either.

    As far as summer goes, I can take it or leave it. So I'll leave it. I'll let you know if something changes though. rolleyes1.gif

    OK. You get 24 hours in the spotlight. The first two adds won't fit, so I used the third. The first would have been:
    LAB: It's pretty

    The second would have been:
    LAB: Just kidding, fo

    The last one just fit. I never expected anyone to pay for this. Guess I'll try raising my prices.
    If not now, when?

    The ad said, "Your ad here." and it's there. What's the problem?

    You said, AFTER the fact, "24 hours"

    :bigbs

    I bought your space. It's mine. Not for 24 hours, but until I'm tired of using it.

    But I can be reasonable. I will give you a new phrase for tomorrow night. But it's my spot.

    What in the world would ever make you think it was permanent? Did you ask? When you ever heard of such a thing? If you buy a google phrase, do you think you get it for all time?

    Do you have a leg to stand on?

    Andy bought it. He owns it. You sold all rights to your avatar signature for $5. World-wide, in-perpetuity. That's a long time, rutt.

    Sorry, you're S.O.L.

    Andy, maybe you could sell it back to Rutt. Like cybersquatting.

    Andy, how am I ever gonna come back from that one? I spit my wine all over.

    Seriously, though, I have a little advice for you, just between the two of us. Find out what that shyster lawyer is charging you. I'll bet it's at least $5 per post. If not, jeez, what kind of lawyer is he anyway?
