A friend of mine just lent me a book -

She said "I know you shouldn't use puns, humor etc in headlines - but you'll love this one"

And I did.

The Book's called "Life's A Pitch - Then You Buy" - (Don Peppers)

Yeah! Nice. Of course it's a book title so they can probably get away with that.

Reminds me a Wizard of Id cartoon book from 1973. The cover showed a picture of the Wizard walking away and it said, "The Wizard's Back". You turn it over and on the back cover is him walking towards you with the words, "The Wizard's Front." I still laugh at that today.

If I had a dime for every retail store that "got it" I'd owe $6,139,420.40.
