Is the World Ready for a $2,000 Baseball Cap?

directhitpp@sympatico.ca — 2007-12-08T23:15:50-05:00

BY LARRY KNOWLES
SEPTEMBER 5, 2007
SAN DIEGO (TNA) – If you thought $20 was a lot to pay for a baseball cap, how does $2,000 strike you? A San Diego company is offering what is believed to be the world’s most expensive baseball cap. At $1999, the Zerino “Elita,” a black cotton-and-leather ball cap with a 22-karat-gold top button, is nearly 20 times as expensive as the high-end hats sold by competing cap makers. At least you get a nice mahogany box with the hat for 2000 big ones.
For the price of the Elita, a baseball enthusiast could attend a whole lot of major league games – and in style, too. A Yankees fan, for example, could buy seasons tickets for two ($1,620), an MP3 player to listen to the play-by-play ($150), and a Yankees cap ($27), and still have $200 left over for hot dogs and beer. The question is, why would someone pay two grand for a ball cap?

The Japanese manufacturer had the tremendous idea of combining a moment of pleasure with a brand or logo by launching a promotional toaster.

The concept is quite simple: You can have your toaster customized with a logo or text printed on it, but the funniest thing is that it comes with a customized metal sheet you insert on the toaster.
The result: you have your logo toasted on bread! it's incredible!

directhitpp@sympatico.ca — 2007-11-06T12:16:05-05:00

Now here’s a branded premium with a small imprint but a big impact - Peanut Business Cards. Some very cleaver people in Japan have figured out how to get an imprint on peanuts.

"For people looking to liven up the formal rigmarole surrounding the exchange of business cards in Japan, Arigatou Co., Ltd., a company specializing in the sale of laser-etched food products, offers “Taberu Me” edible business cards printed on peanuts.

Laser-etched beans and nuts -- Taberu Me cards are created using Arigatou’s high-grade CO2 laser engraver nicknamed “Shiawase-kun,” which can etch up to 700 characters per second on hard organic materials like beans, nuts, rice and pasta and which has been optimized to print clean-looking logos, names and telephone numbers on the irregular surfaces of peanut shells.

directhitpp@sympatico.ca — 2007-10-11T13:33:11-04:00

this was last week fishing on Bronte Creek

This is a good one....

directhitpp@sympatico.ca — 2007-10-11T13:30:46-04:00

This is a good one....   tough questions  Question 1:   If you knew a woman who was pregnant, who had 8 kids already, three who were deaf, two who were blind, one mentally retarded, and she had syphilis, would you recommend that she have an abortion?   Read the next question before looking at the response for this one.   Question 2:     It is time to elect a new world leader, a nd only your vote counts. Here are the facts about the three candidates.   Candidate A. Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologist. He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10 martinis a day.   Candidate B. He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.   Candidate C He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, drinks an oc casional beer and never cheated on his wife.   Which of these candidates would be our choice? Decide first... no peeking, then scroll down for the response.                    Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt.  Candidate B is Winston Churchill.  Candidate C is Adolph Hitler.      And, by the way, on your answer to the abortion question: If you said YES, you just killed Beethoven.        Pretty interesting isn't it? Makes a person think before judging someone.  Wait till you see the end of this note! Keep reading..        Never be afraid to try something new. Remember:  Amateurs...built the ark.  Professionals...built the Titanic       And Finally, can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 500 employees and has the following statistics:   * 29 have been accused of spousal abuse  * 7 have been arrested for fraud  * 19 have been accused of writing bad checks  * 117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses  * 3 have done time for assault  * 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit  * 14 h ave been arrested on drug-related charges  * 8 have been arrested for shoplifting  * 21 are currently defendants in lawsuits  * 84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year...          Can you guess which organization this is?          Give up yet?         It's the 535 members of the United States Congress. The same group that crank out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line.   You gotta pass this on....2 TOUGH QUESTIONS
