Politically Correct
by Bob OsgoodbyTruth, Justice and the American Way – whoa there Superman – you can be for Truth and Justice, but not the American Way. You might offend someone in a foreign country. Today, it appears that those in a decision making capability for corporate spending, are so afraid they might offend a potential customer, that they toss all values to the wind and wind up doing just the opposite of what they intended.
If you have a product geared toward older folks, you’d better not refer to them as Old. Senior citizen is OK and so is Chronologically Gifted, but you can’t call them Elderly. Today a person is not fat – they are Horizontally Gifted. A Gang in a Ghetto is a Youth Group in an Ethnically Homogenous Area, and a Garbage Man is a Sanitation Engineer.
Well I got news for you – these guys who are trying to not offend anyone, are Fecally Full. You can’t wish someone a “Merry Christmas” or if you use the word God, you might offend an atheist. What the corporate decision makers don’t realize is that the majority of people don’t really care, and a small minority is setting the tone for all of us. How many ads have you seen lately that really make no sense at all, and you have no clue as to what they are hawking?
A Tree Hugger is another term for someone who is environmentally concerned. But wait, “Tree Hugger” is not a politically correct term. People are starting to rebel and giving non-politically correct terms to those who they view as blocking progress.
Who is blocking the development of offshore windmills to supply badly needed energy? Why the “Tree Huggers” of course who are afraid that a bird could be hit by a blade of the windmill 12 miles offshore. Who is blocking the construction of a pipeline from Alaska, but then bitterly complains about the price of fuel? Who is costing us millions of dollars to reroute a highway because it might endanger a tree frog? Right again.
If your advertising program is so sensitive to the needs of a vocal minority, you might just be alienating your real customer base. Now, don’t get me wrong. I am not saying you should be insensitive to the feelings of others. Realize however that sometimes the politically correct term is offensive to more people than the word it is replacing.
If you refer to your wife as a hormonally homicidal person who is overly aerosoled and collagen dependent, and is metabolically underachieving when it comes to reducing follicle stubble, and she replies that you are a sexually focused chronologically gifted individual, you might be politically correct, but you’re most likely going to sleep alone tonight.
I think you get the point - if you use simple but meaningful words in your ads, and avoid terms that many times are difficult to define, your copy will be much more effective.

In The News
Students Hack Professor's Account To Change Grades
Two California State University at Northridge students have been charged with hacking into a professor's campus network account to change their grades and those of nearly 300 of their classmates.
They are also accused of using the professor's credit card to send pizza and magazine subscriptions to the professor's home. Lena Chen and Jennifer Ngan, who confessed to campus police and were subject to the university's disciplinary procedures, now face arraignment on several misdemeanor charges.
The two no longer attend the university.
Generating Real Residual Income
by Timothy RohrerWe've all heard it before, "buy this package now and I promise you'll become rich overnight." The following statement is just not true and there is no real "Holy Grail" on the Internet. Many people feel as though the dot com boom has come and gone and I am here to tell you that those people are wrong.
I am not here to tell you what to get involved in or how to spend your money, rather to inform you on how to create multiple streams of income that can provide for making a living on the Internet. The problem is everyone that looks for these types of home based businesses are looking for the easy way out. They are looking for programs that will make them rich overnight and a millionaire in a year.
Being a home business owner and having nothing more than a few hundred dollars when I first began looking for home based business opportunities I can tell you that it’s work. The major reason 99% of the people who whish to start a home business fail is that they have no business plan. People tend to become very excited when they hear of a new money making opportunity and jump the gun before they realize what they are getting into. Lets be real here, an online business is a commitment and it is a job. If there is no consistency in the program you chose, you are destined for failure.
The first program I looked into was e-currency trading. I had no idea what this program was or if it actually worked. I had $100 to my name from selling my guitar and decided to invest that into e-currency trading. The program provided to be a money making machine and what was once $100 was now $5,000 in just 3 months. I thought to myself, this is great but why stop here?
Through e-currency trading I met some very wealth people and I thought the best thing to do was to stay in touch with them and find out how they were generating money or how they had started initially. Eventually my contacts in e-currency trading lead to a few very reliable wealthy friends who introduced me to other opportunities and private investments that are still generating money to this day. Before I knew it I had income coming in from e-currency, private investments, stocks and other business programs.
The key to generating unlimited amounts of money in my experiences is to network with people that are already wealthy and do what they are doing. You don't need large amounts of money to become a wealthy person. The only thing you need is consistency and a strong business plan.

Trivia
The first toilet stall in a public washroom is the least likely to be used. It is also usually the cleanest. Possibly because people automatically assume that's where everyone stops first, and they continue on.
Biz-Tips
by Kevin Nunley"Why Aren't You Answering?"
Email is exploding. Now that over half of all North Americans send email on a regular basis, just about everyone's email box is over-flowing.
If your prospect doesn't recognize your name or email address, or your subject line doesn't sound interesting, your carefully crafted email message can be deleted along with the morning spam.
Many of us also leave messages we want to respond to in the IN file of our email programs, hoping to get to them when we have time. After a week or so we forget all about them.
One aggressive entrepreneur sends me his sales messages almost every day. When he wrote a personal note to me, I mistook it for his daily ad and didn't open it.
Here's the number one way to break through to email-swamped customers on your third send. Put their name and the words "Why aren't you answering me?" in the subject line.
To keep your note from sounding hostile, make the body of your email less impatient. "I know you're getting an avalanche of email and may have missed the note I sent last month. Here is my original message below. Thanks for your time and I look forward to hearing from you."
The "Why aren't you answering me?" subject line works every time. It can be just the solution when you absolutely must get your message to its intended destination.

A Little Humor to Start the Week
Visitation
=-=-=-=-=-=Several women were visiting elderly Mrs. Diamond who was very ill. After a while, they rose to leave and told her, "Esther, we will keep you in our prayers."
"Just wash the dishes in the kitchen," the ailing woman said, "I can do my own praying."
-----
A Sunday school teacher asked the children just before she dismissed them to go to church, "And why is it necessary to be quiet in church?"
Little Johnny jumped up and yelled, "Because people are sleeping!"
-----Doug and Bill were at the racetrack. Doug says, "You know, if you win $600 on a race, the track tells the government."
Bill says, "Well it could be worse."
Doug replies, "What could be worse than telling the government you won $600?"
Bill sighs, "Telling my wife."
-----
A New York family bought a ranch out West where they intended to raise cattle. Friends came to visit and asked if the ranch had a name.
"Well," said the would-be-cattleman. "I wanted to call it the Bar-J. My wife favored the Suzy-Q. One son liked the Flying-W, and the other son wanted the Lazy-Y. So, we're calling it the Bar-J-Suzy-Q-Flying-W-Lazy-Y Ranch."
"But where are all your cattle?"
"So far, none have survived the branding."
----------I married my wife for her looks...
but not the ones she's been giving me lately!
Feedback - Q&A
That was one great tip regarding offline browsing. Specially - as you've mentioned - for those who don't have web-access 24/7.
Your ezine 'Tip of the Day' is a great help. Thanks.
Could you add some more to it? I want to know why sometimes pages don't show offline. You've said something about coding...Is there a way around this without increasing online
time?Thanks too for mentioning India's Blog Clampdown, the world needs to know when such things happen.
Regards,
Jerome.

-----Jerome – there is one other way. If you have Word for Windows, or possibly some other decent word processing program that can read an HTML document, you can use it for that purposed. Simply “Save” the page and you can view it using your word processor. I recommend a separate folder for these files as they do take up a lot of hard disk space.
Stupid Ads
"Head On! Apply Directly to the Forehead!
"Head On! Apply Directly to the Forehead!
"Head On! Apply Directly to the Forehead!Not only stupid, but extremely annoying. Most folks simply flip to another TV channel when they get bombarded with this. Wonder if the producers of the shows realize how much market share this stupidity is costing them.
