| 78. I think she wants some PR stuff to hang her teeth on |
|
There haven't been any 'bullhorn' moments, or 'mission accomplished' shots to make her feel all warm and safe inside, lately. The PR budget must have run dry.
I remember one Hallow'een I went as Dolly Parton. I couldn't find any round balloons for 'enhancement' so I stuffed two, long ones under a sweater. They were so obviously false, sticking out about three feet, that they were comical, or so I thought. But guys I knew went WILD, even though they KNEW they were false.
PR people must already know that reality doesn't necessarily sell, that some people will overcome their better judgement if they are presented with an appealing image.
Whenever I see people falling for the phony cowboy routine, and I begin to ask 'how on earth can they fall for this' I think about those long balloons and the otherwise perfectly intelligent guys who fell for the fantasy that night! I wonder who they voted for in the last election?
