Some products are just way out of reality. Houses for $300, millions per month without work, etc. People keep on buying them however for the hope of a dream.
I'm thinking of creating a product called "Think your way tan" which helps people tan without the need for tanning beds or laying in the sun which could damage skin.
The FTC will clean them up if marketers themselves wont.

    Good thing people buy on dreams though. It makes a lot of us money!

    Now, if I could only get tan that easily...

            I've been trying the "Scott Ames' Think Your Way Tan" method all day, and it has failed to work.

            In fact, it's given me a headache.

            I am reporting him to the FTC and the FDA. Additionally, I am contacting my lawyer. If anyone else wants to get in on the class action lawsuit, get in touch with me soon.

    I once read somewhere that you could turn a tanned colour if you ate a sufficient amount of carrots. I have no idea whether this is true (I doubt it), but at least you'd be able to see in the dark, and could spot the next scam coming - even if was 2.00am in the morning

      When my son was a wee babe, he loved sweet potatoes and carrots. Then his nose started to turn a bit orange. Yes I have pictures. LOL

      It's true. When I got my first juicer I drank too much carrot juice. Turned orange.

    You can, at least I can, "Think" myself into things.

    When I was a kid I fell out of a tree. (Please no George of the jungle watch out for that tree jokes.) Laying on the gurney in the emergency room the doctor came in and gently picked up my arm and laid it on my stomach.

    He said, "Keep your arm very still, it's terribly broken."

    Immediately my arm started to swell and throb in pain like never before. I laid there all day waiting for them to come in and put a cast on my arm. All the while in great pain.

    After many hours the Dr. came back in to have me moved to a room.

    I asked him when they were going to put a cast on my arm.

    He said. "Oh sorry I forgot to tell you, your arm is not broken. The X Ray Technician tore the film and the 'break' we saw was the tear in the developed picture, not a broken bone at all."

    My arm went down to normal size and stopped hurting immediately.

    So now I'm "thinking" my tan. I'll let you know how it looks.
