He became super controlling and uncomfortable with her career and all the men she had to deal with, especially the italian ones. Ironically reflected in her inability to choose a flavor of coffee to make in the morning, she became slowly less confident both in work and in life due to the unbalanced nature of their relationship. <BR/><BR/>Eventually he left her for a 24 year old pharmaceutical sales girl who immediately quit her job the day he proposed to concentrate on the enormous task of planning her dream wedding. His new wife decided not to go back to work but to start a clothing line. <BR/><BR/>The woman moved to the states and now owns a small gallery/boutique in Sonoma. She grows her own vegetables and still dresses exactly the same as she did back then. <BR/><BR/>She keeps a copy of the Four Agreements on her night stand and rereads a chapter or two every couple weeks. <BR/><BR/>She's also been to several retreats hosted by Andrew Weil and will tell you that this is the best time of her life. She is lying.<BR/><BR/>You know how I know? She wants to cut her hair really short but still isn't brave enough to do it.<BR/><BR/>He will tell you the same about his life and is also lying but believes it because he has two children he pins all his hopes on. <BR/><BR/>His new wife never started the clothing line but got pregnant instead. <BR/><BR/>He doesn't understand why they need a nanny when his she doesn't have a job but is too scared or lazy to call her on it as he subconciously knows it will lead to a fight where he is left staring the true nature of their relationship square in the teeth. <BR/><BR/>The woman doesn't drink coffee anymore.<BR/><BR/>He still does but not the kind from the market.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6056609916904995515.post-33429193582957889502008-12-25T06:17:00.000-08:002008-12-25T06:17:00.000-08:00YES! <BR/>just like the serialized Nescafe Gold Blend commercials were unequivocally 80&#39;s this would be a totally 2009+ thing<BR/><BR/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=igi9u6X4y-s&amp;feature=relatedAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6056609916904995515.post-63233629633922221212008-12-25T06:05:00.000-08:002008-12-25T06:05:00.000-08:00wa wa WOW!... it's almost as if you have two brains chuck... cos it must have taken both of them to come up with such a top shelf idea... as if the shelf is so high you needed to stand on someone's shoulders to reach it... that's how top shelf this idea is<BR/><BR/>i think this is the perfect time for this... because of the nature of the triple dubs (www), trying to link things and lure eyes through portholes to your message is necessary... teaming up, piggy backing, ad on ad just the way it is.... it only makes sense that some of these principles should carry over into more traditional advertising for fun <BR/><BR/>i like itAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6056609916904995515.post-3418248359649988152008-12-25T05:53:00.000-08:002008-12-25T05:53:00.000-08:00this is GREAT! also you forgot to mention the savings on production costs of the actual commercials.... this is an especially relevant in the past 6 months since productions have been slashed dramaticallyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
