Garner, Elliott, and The Big One

[Guest guest]

Dave,

 

Quite right. Garner was the Beef Industry spokesman, then had a triple

by-pass. Stopped him smoking, but didn't make him stop eating meat. He

was fired, however, as spokesman, and Sam Elliott the cowboy was hired.

" Beef, it's what's fer dinner. "

 

Yeah, right.

 

Reminds me of the Marlboro Man sure enough dying of lung cancer.

 

So no, heart attacks and by-passes don't always work to wake people up.

Nothing wakes some of them, while others don't need the warnings.

When Alexander the Great visited Diogenes and asked whether he could do

anything for the famed teacher, Diogenes replied: 'Only stand out of my

light.' Perhaps some day we shall know how to heighten creativity.

Until then, one of the best things we can do for creative men and women is

to stand out of their light.

Yes, but my goodness they couldn't have picked a

sexier man for the job!! Sam Elliott's voice alone

makes my knees weak. He can talk all he wants about

beef;)

Warmly,

Allison
