Dear Daniel,

Thank you for your interest in advertising at the Straight Dope Message Board. Generally speaking, “Advertising” involves “payment” of “money”, otherwise “you” might be considered a “spammer”. I invite you to visit [this page](http://www.chicagoreader.com/chicago/display-information/page?oid=1221727) to learn about the Chicago Reader’s exciting opportunities with paid and ethical advertising. It’s even available without creating the misimpression that a longstanding member has experience with a product or service when they actually have none!

For a limited time only, I can also recommend that you become a paying member for all of $15/yr, and place your advertisement in the Marketplace forum. Join our list of satisfied paying members who avail themselves of such services.

An outstanding reputation can be yours for only $15! Hamsters are standing by, so order now.

Dear Danny,

I’m guessing that you’ve been banned at least once & possibly many, MANY times. Now that we know its YOU, we can say “No”. Do go about your business, but Elsewhere.

What will you do with your money? Maybe you’ll slather your head in Rogaine. Maybe you’ll whiten your teeth & fix your eyes. Maybe you’ll melt it into liquid gold and find the benefits of mineral suppositories.  
(Q: if he was upside down when administered, would a liquid gold suppository burn through all of his internal organs on downward until it made pools of hardening gold on the ground beneath his eye sockets and mouth?) If he survived, wouldn’t he be Rich? #RealityTV

Good Luck, either way, Danny.

Man, now I’m super curious about the nature of his business and how much he’s willing to pay for astroturf advertising.

Daniel, email me!
