I watched it when it first launched. Slick, well funded. Good production. From what I remember of my first visit/impression, the "joke" was funny, but I didn't think Sands of Passion would sustain itself. I was wrong.
Passion did not make me want to return. Could be my age, or my Cialis and Riddlin cocktail had worn wore off that day. Maybe I didn't like the burkas. I am a jeans and T-shirt guy. I dropped in when the link was posted again, but the quick look was all. Did not launch a video to see what, where it had changed. So when you asked again, I took a quick trip over this morning and the site loads so slow I resorted to the cache to have a look (I often load a new page in the background so do not know how long it took to load yesterday). It is not loading either. My third impression is that it just ain't for me. Younger people maybe (obviously people are watching it). Looking back at my chat archive first impression was: "the future of television" and I liked "state of the union" but I summed it up (as if my opinion matters) "not really ready for prime time" My friend's response: "Oh This is funny" and "Oh this is soooooo good" To each his own. --- In [email protected], Irina <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > did any of you watch NationalBanana? > > anyone? > > On 8/22/07, schlomo rabinowitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > True; this has all happened since I made the initial post to the group. > > The > > web moves fast!! > > > > To the group, who may not read all those emails, ConvergeSouth took away > > his > > spot but later offered him a slot to discuss what must be earth-shattering > > issues that pertain directly to Feldman. > > > > The conference felt that his How To session would be overshadowed by > > Feldman's controversy... which may have happened, but honestly, I don't > > think it would have... but what do I know. > > > > Feldman is still declining the offer, thinking that he would just be > > walking > > into some sort of trap. > > > > So basically, Feldman and ConvergeSouth have agreed to disagree. > > > > Like sand in the hourglass, these are the days of our lives. > > > > Schlomo > > http://schlomolog.blogspot.com > > http://weknowhow.tv > > http://winkshow.com > > http://hatfactory.net > > > > On 8/22/07, Jeffrey Taylor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]<thejeffreytaylor%40gmail.com>> > > wrote: > > > > > > Read the comments.
