Just for the heck of it, I typed “Meretrix” into the Search Engine (look it up), and this popped out on top:
Is this an unusually straight-faced (for the most part) joke, or is there more to it? The clues are in the quote name and the one paragraph at the bottom.
Heywood Jablomie ? I think I’ve seen his work before.
Seems like a joke to me. Just an exercise in corporate-speak. Other clues are the company name, Harry Mantakos, and the fact that Mr. Mantakos seems to resemble a certain Governor.
Clearly a joke, but yeah, why bother?
*And as part of the Meretrix Vision, as seen by our founder, respected technologist, humanitarian, and bon-vivant Harry Mantakos, we believe that anyone who takes this web page seriously is a complete idiot. Hell, I wasn’t even wearing pants when I wrote it.*I’d guess it’s part of a joke.
Harry Mantakos’ Yahoo! profile lists his occupation as “boy band singing sensation”. too much time on his hands.
