Marketing Lessons From Tony Bennett | M4B Marketing
"Hi Susan. He's so popular now, that Alec Baldwin has done impressions of him on Saturday Night Live - a couple years ago near Christmas, and in the XXXVIIth season opener just this past Saturday. The impressions are very good - and hilarious. In fact, the real Tony Bennett joined Alec (as Tony) with Christina Aguilera in a Christmas trio, and Alec (as Tony) interviewed Tony (as guest Tony Benedetto - his real name) on "The Tony Bennett Talk Show". Funny stuff - the impression was so good it was hard to keep track. Duncan"Being Social Was Never So... Antisocial
"Interesting, Andrew. I spend as much time blocking weirdo @tweeters as I do anything else on Twitter. By now, I've likely blocked 4-5 times more people than I've followed.

Sexist Ads and How to Avoid Using Them
"Wonderful, Deborah - I abhor all idiotic sexist advertising. Women certainly have suffered this over the long years, but they're not alone (thank you for mentioning the "stupid husband" commercials). For anti-male ads, the sports beer commercials are the bottom of the barrel for me (mindless men very insecure about their manhood - maybe a more "manly" beer is their "real" problem - or, maybe it's the 12-pack they've already quaffed?).
