music, thoughts, books, dreams, more

Just my world of dreams, music and thoughts. Author of two books, one a novel of Love stories set in Framingham, Mass, Secrets of the Heart the 2nd book an autobiography of growing up in Framingham, Mass. Small Town America, Framingham My generation was the first teenage generation, that was when the word was coined. Ours was the generation that started cruising through town and to the drive in theater and drive in restaurant. In our area, Ernie Kampersal,from Holliston, drove his bucking car through town, picking up girls. It rose in the air, like a stallion! We went to the soda shops and played the juke boxes. It was a different town, a different time, and it belonged to us!

Wow, what a job the Kardashian girls are doing , marketing themselves.  They have 3 clothing stores, and a number of products that they are bringing to the market.  The show and the attention gets them customers.  Talk about learning to perservere and face the odds.  It is tough to become world famous, but here are three sisters that learned to play the marketing odds.  Not everyone wants to pose semi nude, or nude, but even with  that they have managed to grab a power hold on the market. ( or maybe because of that)
