Lol, in case it wasn't "glaring" at you, the image has been changed...

at least, temporarily.

I still like my original shot better, so it'll likely go back up.

The change is just a little present for Mark Shipley who previously wrote:

Sam, you have to change that picture on your site. You look like you are really pissed and are ready to slap some teeth out!
And would it hurt to lose the hair clips?
They are so yesterday, sister!

;-D

(I'll be putting the OTA trackback article back up top for this weekend; scroll down to add your trackbacks to it now if you're looking for it)

I saw a commercial about that game show coming to Canada, and thought I'd share the new prize board with you all.

Go for the 'big money' - a Year of Beer!

By the way, what's with Howie Mandel's little fist handshake thing, also known as 'The Touch', aka 'Knucks', aka The Fist Bump, and who knows what else it's called.

Does he have some phobia about shaking people's hands or something? (Probably, I mean, doesn't half of Hollyweird have some bizarre hang up?)

Where did those come from?

Lol.

Thanks to Tramp at Tramp's Riverbank, I've been exposed.

Apparently, this ad was found on my site, so I guess the terrible truth is out... I have giant knockers, I mean, I'm a swimsuit model.

Maybe I should switch my top picture for this image, lol.

On the same page where Michelle Malkin was beating up Verizon over sponsoring Akon who commits shameless acts (and then congratulating on a victory over Verizon):

I saw this side bar advertisement (click to enlarge) of a woman in a thong suggestively posing:

I am sure Michelle Malkin would never have knowingly approved of that advertisement, but it does show that you must be careful about what's not under your control on your site or it could unintentionally reflect badly on yourself.

I am not comparing the Verizon situation to Michelle Malkin's. They are different:

• Verizon surely knew Akon's questionable background before signing a multi-million dollar contract.
• Michelle is using a generic advertising script and the advertisement that is served came from another company not under her control.
• The advertising script on Michelle's site shows different ads to different visitors and she would likely never see that ad.
• While some ad serving companies allow you to prevent certain ads from showing up, most require you know the name of the 'offending' advertiser first.

Fortunately, anyone who reads SamanthaBurns.com knows Sam doesn't have such high moral editorial standards, but even those like Michelle Malkin, who encourage moral standards, can end up having their name tarnished.
