"You’re Welcome."

Unsolicited Advice for Life, Work, Work/Life and Lifework

PIX: HP Confirms It? "I scream, you scream, we all scream for a MacBook Pro."

File this under "ads that mystify me": 

What does it mean, what does it mean? 

1. hp couldn't handle the power of its own envy, so it decided to knock-off a MacBook Pro? 
2. hp made a knockoff for people who can't handle the power of their own MacBook Pro envy? 
3. What is this ad saying? What? What? What? 

(I think it's saying, "For a little bit more money, you can get a real MacBook Pro.")

Could someone please shed some light on this?

Truth in Advertising: France to Adopt Photoshop Disclaimer?

The French government is debating a law requiring all Photoshopped images in advertising to come with disclaimers stating that said images have indeed been 'shopped.

This is to protect little girls from thinking that those impossibly beautiful women are actually real.

The law should also prove beneficial for adolescent males.
