To all those pitching at you during your so-called non-celebrity day, YOU'RE a celebrity--even THE celebrity of their day. Celebrity and Star are often synonyms. In the case of those pitching at you, you're indeed both a celebrity AND a star and they're wishing upon that star--You. They've got a wish they think you can make come true; thus the responsibility incumbent upon celebrities to make wishes come true. Now you've got your day's work cut out for you, Star.

Your name was brought to my attention because you are highly respected as a visionary and achiever and my prayer is that you might be willing to take a peek at our CEO profile and forward along as appropriate. All Mighty Productions, Inc., is currently seeking a CEO for its Beantown Toys Company brand to oversee national roll-out of current and future toy lines and help identify resources for distribution networks as well as financing opportunities to support the company’s short and long term objectives. Experience has taught me that women have an inherent and beautiful nature about themselves to support other women and that through your circle of influence you may know of someone who yearns for a change or a challenge. If you might let me know the best way to send along a copy the actual CEO Profile, it would be an honor. I’ll be attending the 2010 NYC Toy Fair! Perhaps you will be there as well.

Yup, if it's a dog, they don't easily forget it. However, after spending years refreshing hard goods product lines every season for mass, mid-tier and specialty channels, I have to say, coming up with a hit food recipe and product, that endures, is very appealing. As far as hard goods... creating "new" is an exhausting process and expensive. Cheers! Gary Arline,
