5. Barely legal con man, I'm guessing.
Edited on Sun Jun-14-09 12:16 PM by onager
Like the hucksters involved in your Enron/Bank of Scotland scandal a few years ago. I was wondering if Mr. Merrill Lynch/Morgan Stanley got out of the UK just ahead of an indictment. Or a Merrill-Lynch mob made up of former customers.

I started laughing out loud when he said that, probably surprising the other people sitting around me in traffic...

Charlie answered your question very well, so I won't belabor that point. Well, a little...

Though KKLA is technically a "religious channel," its advertising is a constant barrage of miracle weight loss products, patent medicines, get rich quick/get out of debt scams, ambulance-chasing personal injury lawyers, etc. Oh, and countless expensive weekend seminars to improve your relationship with your domestic partner or Jesus. Who often seem to be one and the same.

Sometimes the disconnects are hilarious. You might hear Dr. James "Dog-Kicker" Dobson ranting about anti-God lawyers ruining the USA, followed soon after by a commerical that begins: "Have you been injured at work? You have a right to financial compensation..."
