Now nobody is happier than I am to see some revenue coming in for TeamWeare.  But I have been thinking about something thats bothered me since I first clicked it......

Who is the corporate genius at Gem.net that decided to PAY for banner advertising for PEARLS, DIAMONDS AND JEWELRY NEWS at a site full of male pickup truck fanatics who can spend 40 posts in a week long thread discussing and deciding on whether or not A GUY SHOULD STAY HOME AND TAKE HIS WIFE TO DINNER ON THEIR WEDDING ANNIVERSARY OR GO PLAY IN A SOFTBALL TOURNAMENT????????

I see Newbie had no problem finding something to b!tch about now that the decal fiasco is over! LOL

But he does have a good point, what does a site that sells navelgems doing on a pickup truck site.  Maybe whoever set it up just saw "pickup" and missed the "truck" part thinking it was a singles or lonely hearts site!

Ok here's the deal.  This is my official press release so listen up kiddos.

The Gem people didn't contact us, it was kinda like a stupid service i signed up for.   I could choose between a couple different banners, and none of them had t do with trucks, so i took the one that paid the most.  Also, when we get REAL advertising set up with (hopefully) truck parts people, etc, then I can say "Your ad will be right where the current ad is."  Also, i wanted to be able to figure everythking out before the real stuff comes in.  Plus, we have made a couple bucks, which will help pay for the hosting.

A little birdie told me you were testing it out...I would hope that when "real" advertising appears that we don't dis it bad in the posts!  Has anybody actually bought anything from the site?
