Barbara – the photo DOES fit the topic quite well – doesn’t it? And of course, it’s not REAL! Her attorney expenses should be filed under “marketing and promotion” for 2008!!! Totally a case of shameless AND graceless self promotion!

Hi Kathy – Love the photo! I heard about the model who is suing Google for the derogatory remarks about her on a blog. I asked myself, “is that for real?”. Let’s face it, as bloggers we read much worse than that on a daily basis. Self promotion? Yup!

Tom – great point! Somehow, I feel like there’s a real dichotomy at work when you use “sex tapes” and “authentic” in the same sentence!!!

Sara – thanks for the compliment

Guyate – welcome!

Betsy – you’re way too cool to be snarky!!! (Snarky is for those with 1/10th your personal charm!)

I do believe that one can shamelessly promote oneself authentically. In fact if you truly are authentic then it's easier to be shameless. Who knows public displays of lewdness and dissemination of sex tapes may be authentic for Paris? Tom Volkar / Delightful Works last blog post..A Guided Meditation for Authentic Expression
