One More

I forgot this very funny note from Ian Pottmeyer in reference to my Crate and Barrel item descriptions post last week:

Crate and Barrel has competition from Nokia in the Department of Ridiculous Product Descriptions. From http://www.nokia.com/nokia/0,8764,62371,00.html:
When twilight falls, prowl the night with the mysterious Nokia 7280 phone. Shrouded in the mystery is a passion that will only reveal itself as you slide it open. Its sublime form is exquisitely crafted, leaving you with a slim, sleek object of beauty, unmatched by any other. You and the Nokia 7280 phone, a combination that's as compelling as the night.

Okay, I'm begging all of you now. If you have to write descriptions like this for a living, please e-mail me and tell me how you do it without developing some kind of substance dependency. I mean it.
