So how big was small?

Category None
well according to my un-scientific blog poll, the majority of people believe a SMB is less than 100 people, and 3% of my blog readers are IBMs (kidding).

So today a new poll starts, totally unrelated to computers or software. A simple question that I was wondering the other day, have you ever purchased a CD, album, tape, MP3 etc. purely cos your thought the person on the cover/album art was hot?

1 - Based on the new question, can I guess you're in the "yes" column? (And if so - fess up: which album?)

2 - @1 As if I would be so shallow, OK I admit I have done it a few times such as Jewel, Transvision Vamp, Belinda Carlisle, would need to look at my collection to figure out which others. And yourself are you a yes or a no?

3 - No way - that's crazy! It's not like you can see them when you're listening!
I did buy a CD based purely on a review in a magazine - which turned out to be brilliant (Gomez - Bring it On)

Oh and I bought some perfume based on an ad - it was an amazing lush green and I thought - I'd like to smell like that - and I do!

4 - I'm a "no," although I almost did buy a used copy of Jimi Hendrix's "Are You Experienced" LP with an, er, alternate cover (let's just say it's not one that Walmart would stock on their shelves.)

5 - @3 Does the perfume make you taller

So some of the logic behind buying a CD with someone hot on it, the more people that do it, the more likely they are to have been on MTV or something. Hey what can I say, I'm very visual.

6 - No but I did try once to buy the Betty Boo album after only hearing one single - bloke in the shop refused to sell it me. He said it was crap and didn't want me coming back the next day to batter him.
very bizarre that...
