THE POWER OF THE BLOG
Almost singlebloggedly revitalizing the US economy (second item):
Since Barry's gift guide ran, sales of Sperm Snow Globes have soared.
According to Gayann Miller, a buyer for Teacher's Discovery: "All of
sudden, they were flying out of here -- or swimming out of here, I
should say."
Oh darn. They are sold out!

"All of sudden, they were flying out of here..."
Dave should have received TOP billing, & title should read "Barry Blog Makes Shoppers Come"

positive attention from the national media,
1. This place is National Media? Like respected outlets such as Fox News and the New York Post?
2. The Gift guide is positive attention? I guess if you live in Detroit...

There have been several times I've seen things we've discussed on the blog on the news later and also on Conan and Letterman. I didn't think much about it until the other day when I saw Fox News interviewing my surgeon about my surgery. So I guess we are the National Media.

There's a comment here about sperm snowglobes and responding to a demand, but I think I'll let it pass by.

Good for them, everybody needs a good sales spurt now and then.

The Sperm Globe people are ramping up production.
Their new manufacturer is Siemens.

Woody Allen's "Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Sex" also comes to mind.
