While I’m blogging about people who read my Beyond Viral book, I’d like to thank Rhett & Link for the product placement. Aren’t they cute?

@2 ^works for me
It’s no wonder you have so much credit card debt.
That’s just my way of saying I’m jealous.
@8
Meh, I must be lying.
@10 nice leap 😉
@9 So glad I could get the debt reminder while we’re spending away. The resort/airfare wasn’t bad, but you gotta stay out the Bermudian grocery stores.
What the fuck is up with that Jim Edwards? You want we should roll his car while you’re on vacation? Just say the word, Nalts, and your back row will have his hide.
