That’s because it has.

What do you think you’ve been doing the last couple of years? Writing about online marketing and making pizza?!

In my head, it’s already been a long-standing, interactive-Broadway musical; I’ve spent time amid numerous shows, dressed in disguise, languishing in my creativity’s triumph; and, reserved my final days drinking Johnnie Walkers on a remote island suited with automated Google golf carts and local theater troops, which reenact the musical every Wednesday after proper homage to my effigy..

In reply to 011100110110010. I will compose the soundtrack on a number of different child-sized Casio keyboards. 'The Ballad of 01100111011001010110010101101011 (Dot Co Dot UK)' will top the adult contemporary charts in no time flat.

In reply to Dug. Dustin, I know you're not a 'hardened SEO veteran' but I have to agree with Dug. Always go with Bran Flakes!

“I got to second base with a client once, but I still haven’t, you know, landed one.” (cheery-cheeked boy sips Mountain Dew while eating Charleston Chews on curb adjacent to urban convenience store)

Next scene, Rand Fishkin (played by Sean Revell) comes out of store, smiles, and ruffles the boy’s hair.

Epilogue: Young boy grows up to read Sean Revell’s (played by Sean Revell) blog

In reply to Dustin Verburg. It's the Fruit Loops that does it. Try a more serious cereal like Bran Flakes and they will sign without even reading.

In reply to Dug.

That’s a good point, Dug. Contracts and money both run out and I guess that’s inevitable. It’s never an Alphaville song!

I always try to sneak the “this contract if 4EVER” clause into contracts, but it turns out no one takes my ‘contracts drawn on a piece of cardboard torn from a Froot Loops box’ seriously. Which is totally their problem, not mine.
