My sister-in-law (who happens to be a fair skinned, red-headed Italian....yes, they do exist) just shared the following exchange she had with her olive complexioned son:
"Why are you pink and not brown?"
Anyone want to take that one?

Not Slogging!!!!
I am just overwhelmed with work that actually pays me (imagine that?).
I'll be back on track tomorrow.
Oh, and since I should, I guess I'll share with everyone a little interesting fact about writing....
Those people on the weight loss info-mercials and in ads telling their unbelievable stories of weight loss....well, I get paid to write those stories.
Oh, and to further awaken your inner-cynic, there are also tons of companies who hire people to go on "costumer-reviewed" marketplaces (amazon, bizrate, mysimon, etc.) and write up fake reviews of their own products. To avoid the paid endorsements, just look for a bunch of reviews posted on the same day/week.

I think this one speaks for itself.
