The great holiday round up
Dec. 27th, 2011 12:37 pmBack at home after a trip to Boston. Many things make a post?
- Google ads seem to have decided that my thing for the day is some diamond company that puts a special mark on their diamonds. Their tag line is something like "Only 1% of the world's diamonds have a Forevermark" or whatever it is. Which I suppose is supposed to drive scarcity-based value. Thing is, I don't see how this mark makes them better. I could also arrange for a handful of diamonds to get licked by a dog and say "Only 1% of the world's diamonds have a BestFriendsKiss."
- We got a bunch of gifts from vendors today. I scored a nifty mug and a coffee frother. (And coffee, which I promptly donated to the office coffee stock.) We also got two giant Harry and David fruit baskets. Moose Munch!
