Mr. Evan Kennedy Blogger

Please accept my apology for mis-spelling Yuan in the headline of this news release. It is being re-issued with the correction. Jim Trippon had caught the error in the first draft but we received comments from several sources and it got lost in the successive versions. My responsiblity.

P*** K*****, D***** C****** PR.

For Immediate Release



This article or quotations from it may be used with attribution and reference link to Jim Trippon’s www.chinastockdigest.com.



Jim Trippon, editor of the China Stock Digest, is available for commentary on China and the future of America. Jim is the author of “Becoming Your Own China Stock Guru” and manages money for wealthy clients from offices in Houston and in China.



New Race to Be Top Dollar

Will China’s Yuan Take the Place of the US Dollar as the Primary World Currency?

Analysis and Commentary from Leading China Expert Jim Trippon, editor of the China Stock Digest.



FACT: China has overtaken Japan to become the world’s second biggest stock market by capitalization as investors pile into the fast-growing economy.



FACT: China’s listed companies had a market capitalization of $3,210bn as of July 15 compared with Japan’s $3,200bn……..

Thanks for putting my blog name at the beginning, I almost forgot what it was.  Oh, also, who’s Mr. Evan Kennedy Blogger? I didn’t know my last name changed to Blogger!  That’s amazing.  Here I was thinking my name was Evan Kennedy, but all along it was Evan Kennedy Blogger, how stupid of me.  Now I need to go get my passport changed.  If you’re going to be sending out mass emails, then at least get your spreadsheet in order.  Also, this is the 2nd email you sent off.  So, apologize for the first blast with the misspelling of Yuan all you like, but its still idiotic to call me Mr. Evan Kennedy Blogger.  Did you also write Ms. Jane Jones Newspaper?  When you send out a 2nd blast for some reason, make sure you get all the mistakes.  Oh, you also misspelled ‘responsiblity’ – you’re missing an i.  It’s your responsibIlity to make sure these things are correct.

And another thing, why do I care about this guy?  I write about Travel and Technology.  That’s what I’m listed under in Vocus, your PR database.  What the hell do I care about China’s monetary system?  I like writing about Giant Robots.  Did you even read my blog?  Hell, did you even click the link to my blog and take a look around?  Of course not, you just pulled my name, put it in a list and then sent it.  Bad PR flack, bad!  Please, next time you decide to send me something, find out if I care about what your sending me.  Check out my blog and maybe add some personal touches to your email to engage me.  That’s what I always did when I was a flack.

Mass blasts are for newspapers, not blogs.

Until next time this has been bad press release of the day.
