Murphy's Laws

Sometimes I wonder why does Murphy's Laws seem to apply to so many instances? Murphy's Law states that "if something is going to go wrong, it will go wrong at the most inopportune moment."

I really believe AOL pulling the ad crap the way it did, immediately after the ViVi Awards was a definite Murphy Moment. Aol took a community that had pulled together, even jumping the pond to do so, and in one fell swoop cut it's jugular.

Having worked in customer service and public relations positions my entire life I still shake my head in disbelief at what these idiots did. At the very least they could of warned people. A good deal of the journalers actually felt violated...having something that they worked on so diligently used in a crass manner was a total turn off.

Well, the powers that be at AOL still have not peeked out from behind closed doors. So much for marching in there and jumping up on their boardroom table...I guess art does not imitate life. But I do believe that MAD TV should do a sitcom on AOL's TV commercial....only this time when the lady customer jumps up on the table...it collapses under her!

Never again will I ever spout off to anyone, anywhere that AOL is good for anything....Sandi

Thanks for the comment in my Blogspot blog! I agree about AOL's timing-- it couldn't have been worse. I still can't quite believe they did this, and that they've kept the ads after such a mass exodus.

btw: I love silver glitter belts, LOL...
