Me? In The Princeton Premier? Never!

It's finally happened! I've finally gotten the notice!

It is my pleasure to inform you that you are being considered for inclusion into the 2008-2009 Princeton Premier Business Leaders and Professionals
Honors Edition section of the registry.


Really? I feel so honoured! Of all the people you could have possibly asked, all those "business leaders" and "professionals", you picked on little ol' me! And to think, if I hadn't had my email on a website that has nothing to do with this, but where any web spider could pick it up, I might never had been selected at all!

The 2008-2009 edition of the registry will include biographies of the world's most accomplished individuals. Recognition of this kind is an honor shared by thousands of executives and professionals throughout the world each year. Inclusion is considered by many as the single highest mark of achievement.


Wow, all those people... many, many people... beside whom I might have an entirely paragraph of self-dictated indulgence... it's like some kind of dream come true... the chance to be associated with all those other people who received this very same email!

For accuracy and publication deadlines, please complete your application form and return it to us within five business days. There is no cost to be included in the registry.


That's likely to be true. Yes, there is no cost to be in the registry. Can't accuse them of any dishonesty there. What they miss out in mentioning is that pretty much anyone can get in (so it's not that exclusive) and that to get a copy of the registry, all nicely printed up and bound... that's where the money earner is. The chance to be associated with all those names!

Yeah... sign me up... I'd rather Send Your Name to the Moon!

[END]
