Land Of The Free Alright

How many times have you seen this scheme? You log onto a website, and are overtaken by a gargantuan and obnoxious "click here for your free gift" ad. Yeah ... ok ... some company is giving away ipods and home computers to any yahoo that clicks on their ads with no strings attached. As pathetic as this advertisements are, they must work. Because if they didn't, the entire idea would have been tossed in the shredder. Like the old timers say, "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is." My personal favorite, are the emails that we all get everyday about mortgage offers with unbelievably low interest rates and free closing costs due to my excellent credit rating and prompt mortgage payments (which, by the way, I have been receiving since I was 14). I guess people really will do almost anything just to get something for nothing ... even if they don't need what they're getting, so long as it was free.

Yes, I like the Mortgage Pre-approved for refinancing; don't have a morgage. My other fav's are for Viagra & penis enlargement; I'm female.

Theysay there's a sucker born every minute. I've clicked on a few of those "Free" ads, that actually you have to spend $300. to get something you could buy for $20. As you said, they must work, they're still out there.

If that many men are having ED problems, how is the population continuing to grow? (pardon the pun) If nothing else, they're faulty hardware ( ... oops, did it again) would at least be advantagous to the rest of the men out there. Thanks for reading.
