Your other country needs you


A veritable plea from the legendary Lynch:

"As you may be aware the CB BLOG has been nominated in the Battle of the Ad Blogs 2006, one of five in the category "Best Ad Commentary not from the USA". However, due to the inate laziness of Aussies and Kiwis, only 58 of our 2000+ registered CB Bloggers have so far bothered to click a simple button and vote for us. But it's still not too late for the CB Blog to leapfrog the Italians (210), Dutch (85) and Indians (61)."

However you lazy fucks will have to go to CB and click the button.

( the underam thing is 25 years old, let it go. Go vote. You never know, it might be good for our apple growers)

Since yesterday the CB Blog has passed the Indians to claim the #3 spot, with our vote going from 58 to 71. The bloody Italians are still leading (211) followed by the Dutch (86) but CB can sense they are spent, while we have plenty of votes in reserve, as long as we get over this post Xmas laziness. Even if everyone who went to the CB Legendary Xmas Lunch in Auckland voted (and want to get an invite this year), we should add another 60 today and get to #2. When you do, drop me a note at michael@campaignbrief.com so you get on the invite list for the mid year lunch.

10.21am Sydney time: The CB Blog is a clear second with 125 votes (many from our Kiwi buddies), now a mere 88 votes behind The Don's Blog in Palermo (A.K.A. Adverblog). Although the Northern Hemisphere is still asleep and as yet unaware of our dasdardly dawn attack. "A date which will live in Blogfamy" will no doubt be The Don's reply later today. "I fear we have awaken a sleeping blog giant" will be Lynchy's reply.

Thanks to awesome support today from New Zealand, the CB Blog has leapfrogged the Indians, the Dutch and now the Italians and is now #1 with 233 votes, 19 votes ahead of long time leader Adverblog from Italy (214 votes).

But you can bet the Vespa Riders will bounce back when the Italian ad boys and girls wake up in a few hours time. After a few espressos, they'll realise the Aussies are kicking their ass and retaliate with every Italian Mama asked to help. (Lucky not too many have a computer, let alone how to use one).

There are only three days left to vote, so if you haven't voted yet, keep us ahead by encouraging your peers and friends to vote for the CB Blog at www.campaignbrief.com

STOP BLOG! The bloody Italians have retaliated alright, adding mucho votes to their total overnight. They now have 280 votes, but are still 50 votes behind the CB Blog (330 votes). Expect a last day rush this Friday 10th Feb, so keep voting, even ask your families (you can bet the Sicilians are).

How in gods name do they always bloody know I've voted. I wish they'd do this in NZIdol, then those god botherers who have a huge supporting and loving community around to vote for them couldn't win. I dream of the day a nice respectible white kiwi lad who's Uncle couldn't give a rats anus about him all year and can barely register the p smoking little shit at Christmas wins. I swear to god, if I didn't have to fiddle my own son I'd be a god fearing man in a minute.

Right, this is how the christians are diong it on Idol -

In safari - Go "preferences" - then "security" then "show cookies" then remove the cookie "ad-rag.com - question 4"

Then vote as many times as you like. This will make is as fair as an American election!
