Imagine my surprise! As if it wasn't an honor to be tapped by both Cambridge Who's Who and Madison Who's Who (who didn't even know my name but just sent an "blast" email) I now have another prestigious solicitation from Princeton Premier. No doubt they want a head-of-state among their ranks.
My late mother would be so happy - I am finally being tapped by Princeton! The best I could do forty years ago was to make the waiting list. Unfortunately, this "Princeton" is in Astoria, NY, in the magnificent borough of Queens (think George Costanza from Seinfeld, the TV shows King of Queens, All in the Family, etc.) .
Here's my personalized invitation:
Michael Campana,
It is my pleasure to inform you that you are being considered for inclusion into
the 2008-2009 Princeton Premier Business Leaders and Professionals "Honors
Edition" section of the Registry.
The 2008 / 2009 edition of the Registry will include biographies of the world's
most accomplished individuals. Recognition of this kind is an honor shared by
thousands of executives and professionals throughout the world each year.
Inclusion is considered by many [Many what? Morons?] as the single highest mark of achievement.
You may access our application form using the following link:
http://app.formassembly.com/forms/view/3366
Upon final confirmation, you will be listed among other accomplished individuals
in the Princeton Premier Registry.
For accuracy and publication deadlines, please complete your application form
and return it to us within five business days. There is no cost to be included
in the Registry [But I'm sure there are some costs incurred somewhere].
On behalf of the Managing Director, we wish you continued success.
Sincerely,
Jason Harris
Managing Director
Princeton Premier

No, the picture of "Global Woman" was not included. I got it from the WWW site. I guess she is supposed to entice me into joining. Actually, she may be comely, but kind of a slob. Did anyone tell her to tuck in her blouse? And maybe she should button her blouse while she's at it.
Don't wait for your invitation - apply now!
Me? I think I'll pass; I'm waiting for Harvard Who's Who.

Naw, you all are looking at it all wrong. Everybody fill out the app and have them call you. We can eat into their profits even if the phone company is the only one who really wins. We set up a point system where points are scored based on the length of time that we can keep them on the phone with extra points being scored for those people who require them to make overly expensive long distance phone calls.
