EXCELLENCE can be attained if you - CARE more than others think
is wise - RISK more than others think is safe - DREAM more than
others think is practical - and EXPECT more than others think is
possible.

Yep - it was nine years on February 1st when I sent out my first
newsletter to my first list. I think I had about 19 people on
the list that first week. And at least one of them is STILL on
the list today!
In those nine years, I haven't missed very many weeks. Last
year, I sent 49 issues. But, last week, I was busy. It was
Mardi Gras. And, as a non-native of Louisiana, that's all very
fascinating to me.
Mardi Gras, Super Tuesday (which didn't turn out as the media
pundits had hoped) and the worst bunch of killer tornadoes in
nearly 50 years all on the same day. Oh yeah, and an eclipse!
At least Mardi Gras was fun!
I have several things I want to share with you, today. They
kind of run the gamut for content. However, there's probably
something for everyone.
Faye Bowring has been just a little fountain of information,
lately. She contributed both the following link and today's
jokes.
This is a great web site if you like music from 1952 through
1982. It is a fairly new site and is really catching on with
fans of music in that time period. You may want to pass it on
to your friends after you check it out!
WARNING!

That's the real thing, guys!
I also will NOT shop there again. You can't tell me that
PetsMart is unaware of this. They have a responsibility to know
everything about the suppliers of their animals! If they don't,
they clearly have NO business selling animals!
You can register YOUR feelings with PetsMart at the bottom of
the page.
Long link so I had to reduce it:
And, BTW - that's a baby cockatiel that starts the video on the
page above.
I'd really appreciate it if you would help me build our
subscriber list. Please don't forget to invite your friends to
subscribe to The Internet Marketing Trade Journal!
Just forward them an issue with a note telling them why you like
it and give them the following link:

P.S. Do YOU have the iCop seal on your web site? It's the Seal of Integrity in Online Business; it gives you prestige and turns your 'almost buyers' into satisfied customers.

Thanks so much!
Thought readers might find these interesting. And, a couple of
them call for a response on my part - just in case there was any
confusion.
In regards to Who Is Above The Law - if you don't mind me saying
so maybe there should be one other entity you can put on your
"gag list." What about those who know names and refuse to call
them out by name such as the individual at the blog you pointed
us to? What's the problem if what they say is factual and not
libelous? To me they are just as cowardly as the excuse makers.
I'm not sure what you mean by "pulling iCop out of the internet
marketing crowd over the next few months," but I personally am
very disgusted by that whole industry. I would be too
embarrassed to say how much money I have wasted looking for good
information from an honest person. I have to ask if putting the
word "honest" in front of "internet marketer" is the new #1
oxymoron?
I also have to ask - is there anybody you can trust out there?
I really do want to know.
Your Journal brings to mind some lyrics from an old Little River
Band song - "I want to go back to sanity's side." Thanks for
your ongoing efforts to do just that!

First, and even after answering this email, I failed last week
to name a doctor whose list I “magically” appeared on. His name
is Joseph Mercola.
That was simply an oversight. I never hesitate to name exactly
who I'm writing about.
But, the answer to the question as to why folks fail to “name
names” is fear of being sued. It doesn't matter if what you
say/write is 100% true. In this litigious society, people with
so much money they don't know what to do with it sometimes won't
hesitate to file nuisance suits.
They may not realize that a judge can assess HUGE fines against
them for wasting the court's time with frivolous lawsuits. A
competent and ethical attorney, however, will discourage the
clients from doing this. If not, the attorney can also be
accessed fines.
In spite of this, sometimes, something slips by. The idea is to
intimidate the writer/speaker into making a retraction. I guess
the reason I don't worry about it is:
1) I make sure I can prove what I say. For example, that
blasted doctor can NOT come up with a subscription from me.
2) I know about the penalties for frivolous lawsuits and would
waste no time informing any attorney threatening to sue me of
that.
And, don't forget, although I am NOT an attorney, I spent over
15 years settling lawsuits brought against my clients (who were
in financial trouble) with the plainiff's attorneys. I'm not
exactly a novice when it comes to all the ins and outs of the
legal system.
Show the plainiff's attorney the proof of what you say, and the
attorney will likely get his/her client under control.
Nevertheless, I believe this is the reason so many folks
hesitate to “name names.” The only other reason I can think of
is if they DON'T have the proof that what they state is true.
It's always good to be careful! ~ jl ~

Tom is referring to a video I recommended a couple of weeks ago.

The following message is about the same video: ~ jl ~
I just got through listening to the video about the four
possible answers to the future of the world as to how it will
more or less follow this persons four square grid of thinking
and I can see another solution.
Just draw a large circle whose center is where the squares meet.
It should be large enough to include at least half of each
square.
This is enough space for human kind to use as we humans
typically do not do enough to affect a lasting change.
Within this circle we would put all of our partial answers to
all of the ills afflicting our world. It might even work to our
advantage to get them all in one place so we could get a good
look at the whole picture.

That is SO TRUE! We humans rarely-to-never do enough to affect
lasting change! It might be the instant gratification thing -
we want to change it all RIGHT NOW.
Or, we may ALL be suffering from ADHD and can't focus long
enough to accomplish what needs to be done. We do seem to have
the attention span of gnats! ~ jl ~
It's not just the "gurus" that are selling email addresses, it's
those that operate affiliate programs also.
I have an email address that I use exclusively for affiliate
accounts. Recently I joined 2 affiliate programs, within a few
minutes of each other; in less than one hour my exclusive,
affiliate accounts only address, was getting slammed with spam.
Since I had joined 2 programs at almost the same time, it is
impossible for me to know which affiliate "manager" sold my
address. I sure wish I could find out though, I'd like nothing
better to show them just how much I appreciate it.
Take care.

In Richardson, Texas a State Trooper was running radar. He had a perfect spot to watch for speeders, but wasn't getting any. Then he discovered the problem. A 12 year old boy was standing up the road with a hand painted sign which read "RADAR TRAP AHEAD!" The officer later found a young accomplice down the road with a sign reading, "TIPS" and a bucket full of money. (And we used to just sell lemonade!)
A motorist was mailed a picture of his car speeding through an automated radar post in Plano, Texas. A $40 speeding ticket was included. Being cute, he sent the police department a picture of $40. The police responded with another mailed photo of handcuffs.
A young woman was pulled over in Austin, Texas for speeding. As the TX State Trooper walked to her car window, flipping open his ticket book, she said, "I bet you're going to sell me a ticket to the Texas State Police Ball." He replied, "Texas State Troopers don't have balls." There was a moment of silence while she smiled and he realized what he'd just said. He then closed his book, got back in his patrol car and left. She was laughing too hard to start her car.
