In my present employment situation, I am subjected to constant television. There are moments when I can change channels, searching a strange 'to me' system for something other than repeating cycle of the same news stories.
This day I happened onto a channel with the sight of starving children living in squalor, [Feed the Children] infomercial. For only $15 a month 1 child can be saved from starvation. Agencies such as these are wonderful! My husband and I have watched (through pictures and letters) a little 3 year old grow into a teenager. Our sponsorship of about $30 a month has not only fed her, but made it possible for her to learn to read and write.
When that infomercial ended, another one came on:
"We can show you how to go from devastating frizzy, dry hair, to . . . long, silky, shining, beautiful hair for JUST: $15.99 plus S & H call and order NOW!"
I would be curious to know which got the most response.....
Until Then,
Katie
