Wow, bullet points really CAN make people nutzo…
Yesterday’s email included a bullet that said:
- A “G-rated” email tip straight from one of the first “X-rated” movies ever made.
Sure enough…
I get a response from someone saying I’m irresponsible for telling people to watch an X-rated movie and, that I should “retract” it immediately.
(Retract a bullet point?)
Sheesh.
Someone needs to chill their hamster out…
Here’s the real story behind that bullet:
Back in college I took an especially difficult course where we watched a movie in class (like “Forrest Gump” or “Apocalypse Now”), then read and talked about the book.
That was a tough course let me tell ya.
But, somehow I survived…
Anyway, I don’t remember learning much there (although I was sure entertained!) But, one movie we watched has been invaluable in my emails today. It features an email tip that can make your emails kick gluteus assimus and stick out like a hippie at a gun show.
What’s the name of the movie?
And, what’s the tip?
Well, the movie is called:
“A Clockwork Orange”
Apparently, it’s one of the first X-rated movies.
But, it’s not “porn.”
It’s violent & disturbing.
But it ain’t pornography.
The ratings system was simply different back then.
(Another story for another day.)
And guess what?
In the next “Email Players” issue, I explain the extremely profitable email secret I learned from it (which I use in most of my emails — even THIS email you’re reading), and how you can easily profit from it, too.
But it goes to the printer next week.
So time is short if you want in.
