Subject:RE: STORY: Goober's Best Conversation of the Day From:"Sean Brierley" <sbri -at- haestad -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Thu, 25 Jul 2002 16:46:51 -0400
In addition to being humerous, Goober's posts draw attention to both
the Techsmith ads and the "paid for" section of the list, thus giving a
probably unintended boost to both Eric and Techsmith! A true win-win . .
..
I'm receiving various e-mails, pointing out that there is a cute series
of
ads for Snag-it written in "story" format in the Premium (read "paid
for")
section of this list, which I don't normally read.
Goober wrote parodies of these, which I read without knowing what they
referred to. I got confused (much like I do when trying to understand
the
difference between Cholupas and Gorditas at Taco Bell), and wrote a post
that might have confused others more than Goober's.
Goober and I have since communicated offlist, and are now planning to
attend an STC-sponsored font-fondling seminar together in Tahiti later
this year, in an effort to increase my satire sensitivity.
So all's well that ends well. I think.
