Half-fiction, indeed

"It is important to note that this blog and the story depicted above is to be used as an illustrative example of what some individuals have achieved with this/these products. This website, and any page on the website, is based loosely off a true story, but has been modified in multiple ways including, but not limited to: the story, the photos, and the comments. Thus, this blog, and any page on this website, are not to be taken literally or as a non-fiction story."

I am not going to link to the website, because, as you have just read in the fine print, it is an ad. A weight loss ad, for that acai berry stuff. (Pronounced, by me: "ackie" berry. J says it is "ah-kai" berry.) Said website is called "Sarah Cooper's weight loss diary" and contains before and after pictures, a weight loss story, and 15 "comments" penned in the same distinctive writing style -- one is addressed to "Brenda." Ooops.

I get these twitter followers who are sometimes spam, sometimes real people, and sometimes -- well -- something in-between.

Interesting, right?

No, you say? Just spam?

Ok.
