Life I spent part of lunchtime being advertised to. A replica General Lee was parked up in Church Street and the Pot Noodle roadshow, part of a cross promotion for the film version of The Dukes of Hazzard had pitched up on the events podium, with Jessica Simpson lookalikes giving away samples (or rather whole pots) of some new Southern Fried Chicken flavour. Literally a feeding frenzy. A giant inflatable nearby offered the chance to win fabulous prizes by pulling a noodle from a haystack. Words fail me, although it made a change from the pigeons. Just to save myself from accusations of succumbing to viral marketing, here are the reviews at Rotten Tomatoes. My favourite: "Half the jokes land on the screen like dead armadillos." This is not going to go well ...
Updated 17/12/2005 If you found this post because your were looking for the picture of Jessica Simpson would be OK to let me know why? The blog's getting hammered (good thing) but I'm not sure why (bad thing). Has there been some kind of email circular or discussion board post which links to that Google image search?
