Happy

Research 

You sort of touched on some of the issues; but failed to note some of the most important. Best Buy revenue was up considerably from same quarter last year and profits were down primarily because of store retrofits and improvements/upgrades. They spent more on upgrading stores than they lost on falling sales of high margin items.

Icon! 

It's not too visible when reduced to 32px, but I think we have an entry for the Reg extra icon contest. Use a caption of "Gratuitous sex in advertising".

Those who can't see it probably need a break from such images anyway if it's upsetting their eyesight.

Re: wrong EEE girl 

Seconded.

The "I'm drunk on red wine - what can I cook for you" look is a sure fire winner.

I second that! But she does need to be in a swimsuit...

Wrong girl... 

Paris Hilton

I'm with Dave. We no longer want the leather skinned lady... we want the extremely cute (if a little scrawny) lovely that likes a drink and knows her place! *Imagining aforementioned hottie having a few too many reds and deciding to discard with the clothes beneath her pinny!*

//Paris because I'm sure she's fond of discarding clothes after a few drinks too!

I haven't even read the article....I hope there is nothing important in there.

James Pickett

Oh yeah?

Snigger... (in the style of Muttley)

I'd use a smiley icon, but I realise we'll end up picking up the same pieces. So good to have a special relationship...
