anyone click on that NYTimes ad, bottom of the page?

it takes you to a dead page. strange thing to spend money, on, huh? (and yes, I was quite literally looking to subscribe, I need a new sunday paper...)

1. I never click on any of these ads.

I should donate so I can make them go away.

Glad the Jesus Camp banner finally went away. Those kids were freaking me out.

3. well, I figured if I was going to buy the Times anyway

might as well do it to support DU by increasing their click through rates, right?

and I have Jesus Camp on my page right now. going to see it, so it works

2. True story-there are no boobies in the New York Times

I have a voice that I do for telemarketers (or did) that Billy Crystal did in "Running scared". It drives my wife nuts-if I am on my game the person on the other end of the line has no idea if I am a man a woman mentall ill mentally retarded a horny teenager or anything. I once had a girl on for 45 minutes (while I watched a football game) until finally I asked about her boobies and I could hear the whole call center just lose it in laughter.

Anyway this guy from the Sunday NYT called me up one time and after a few minutes I say "I like boobies .....do you have boobies in the paper?" He pauses (laughing) and then says "Yeah I think they are in the lifestyle section" at which point I broke character and said "come on man you just told me that there were boobies in the freakin' New York TIMES????" He just lost it after that. I didn't subscribe.
